Autodesk Inventor CAM
Connect Your 3D Models to Manufacturing Success

Design to Machining – Without the Disconnect
Autodesk Inventor CAM bridges the gap between engineering and manufacturing. Fully integrated inside Autodesk Inventor, it allows designers, machinists, and engineers to create precise toolpaths directly from a 3D model, eliminating file transfers and translation errors.
Whether you’re machining prototypes or running full-scale production, Inventor CAM simplifies CNC programming with intuitive tools that help you move from concept to finished part faster, reducing rework and maintaining complete alignment between design intent and manufactured output.
Why Manufacturers Choose Inventor CAM + KETIV
Companies using Autodesk Inventor CAM with KETIV achieve shorter setup times, higher part accuracy, and faster time-to-market. Because Inventor CAM runs within Inventor, every design update automatically refreshes the related toolpaths, keeping production in sync with engineering revisions.
With Autodesk Inventor CAM, you can:
- Program CNC machines directly from your Inventor 3D model using intuitive CAM tools.
- Automate roughing, finishing, and multi-axis machining operations for faster production.
- Simulate toolpaths to verify accuracy and avoid costly errors before cutting material.
- Integrate seamlessly with Autodesk Fusion, AutoCAD, and the Autodesk Industry Cloud for collaboration and data management.
- Use adaptive machining strategies to extend tool life and maximize efficiency on every job.
Whether you’re prototyping a single component or running high-volume production, Inventor CAM delivers precision and control for modern manufacturing.
Key Features and Capabilities of Inventor CAM
Real-World Impact of Inventor CAM
Aerospace Example: Engineers create a parametric 3D model of a turbine component in Inventor, apply adaptive clearing in Inventor CAM, and export verified G-code directly to the shop floor, saving hours of setup and eliminating translation errors.
Automotive Example: Custom toolmakers model fixtures and generate multi-axis toolpaths inside Inventor CAM, automatically updating programs when engineers adjust tolerances.
Result: Shorter production cycles, fewer revisions, and a measurable ROI within the first quarter of adoption.
