What if fabrication errors aren’t a shop-floor problem but a data problem?
Most fabrication issues don’t start in production; they start much earlier.
Misinterpreted drawings, outdated revisions, and disconnected product data often lead to costly errors, rework, and delays.
Autodesk Inventor Model-Based Definition (MBD) changes this by embedding all manufacturing-critical information directly into the 3D model. Dimensions, tolerances, GD&T, and annotations become part of a single, clear digital definition of design intent, eliminating ambiguity from the start.
But accuracy doesn’t stop at design.
With Autodesk Vault, that same model is managed in a controlled, connected environment where every stakeholder works from the correct, approved version. No outdated files. No version confusion. No disconnected data.
Together, Inventor MBD and Vault create a connected workflow where design intent is preserved from engineering to manufacturing, improving accuracy, reducing rework, and strengthening production confidence.
