Autodesk Fabrication 2018.2 Update

9 Mar 2018 Darren Young

Update 2018.2 for Autodesk Fabrication

Autodesk just released update 2018.2 for CADmep, CAMduct, ESTmep as well as the lesser used CAMduct Components, Tracker and Remote Entry.

There’s a hand full of fixes for CADmep, ESTmep and CAMduct. If you refresh your Autodesk Desktop App, the updates should appear if you have an active subscription (maintenance plan or annual subscription). The Desktop App says they were released a few weeks ago but they just showed up in the Desktop App today.

You can also access them from the Product Downloads section of the Autodesk Accounts portal.

CAMduct Components, Tracker and Remote Entry did not have any “fixes” and were only updated to keep the build numbers consistent which means there’s really no benefit to updating those.

You can find a complete list of updates and build numbers here.

Here’s the fixed issues…


CADmep
  • Improved the stability of patterns 1206 & 1207 when adding holes.
  • Improved minimum straight length size when filling in Design Line.
  • Improved patterns 2884 & 2051 by relaxing the bad dimension checks.
  • Improved connector insulation adjustments when insulation parts = Wrap inside.
CAMduct
  • Improved geometry cuts in NC program for VICON Post Processor.
  • Improved the stability of patterns 1206 & 1207 when adding holes.
  • Improved Piercing for Custom NC.
  • Improved patterns 2884 & 2051 by relaxing the bad dimension checks.
  • Improved connector insulation adjustments when insulation parts = Wrap inside.
ESTmep
  • Improved Item List view in Job contents table to auto-refresh when parts are deleted.
  • Improved the stability of patterns 1206 & 1207 when adding holes.
  • Improved the estimating information present on the Review Installation Costs, Review Installation Times, and Review Fabrication Time tabs.
  • Fixed an issue causing hangers to report incorrect costs.
  • Improved patterns 2884 & 2051 by relaxing the bad dimension checks.
  • Improved connector insulation adjustments when insulation parts = Wrap inside.
