The Job Processor is a separate application that reserves queued jobs and pulls them from the job server to process them. Since the job processor is installed along with the Vault client, any workstation with the Autodesk Vault edition can be used to publish jobs.
A job processor is a software application that automates the execution of tasks in Vault Professional. This can help to improve efficiency and productivity by freeing up users to focus on other tasks, while the job processor handles the repetitive or time-consuming tasks.
There are many benefits to using a job processor for Vault Professional. Some of the most common benefits include:
If you are looking for a way to improve the efficiency, productivity, and compliance of your Vault Professional workflows, then a job processor is a good option. There are many different job processors available, so you can choose one that meets your specific needs and requirements.
Here are some specific examples of how a job processor can be used to improve the efficiency, productivity, and compliance of Vault Professional workflows:

Photocentric are on a mission to solve a global problem and focusing their entire R&D team on improving energy storage using their unique additive manufacturing techniques.
They hope the technology will provide massive improvements in the performance of batteries which are used in Giga factories in the UK.
By leveraging on Photocentrics visible light polymersation in combination with their LCD screen-based 3D printers, Photocentric have several patents to manufacture low-cost mass manufactured batteries.

Batteries that are commonly used in automotive are typically large and heavy with opportunity for optimisation.
Photocentrics intention is to 3D print battery electrides and by using the unreestricted freedom of the 3D printing process, has an objective to deliver remarkable advancemnets in battery manufacturing. Hed of R&D Chemistry at Photocentric, Dr. Sarah Karmel says “currently, electric vehicles are made to fit around the battery module, we want to create customised batteries that fit the vehicle.”

Sika Automotive, a leading OEM supplier for automotive components, needed to streamline prototyping and pre-series productive for their innovative heat-expandable acoustic inserts. They incorporated the 3devo Composer 350 filament maker into their in-house 3D printing and manufacturing process which was capable of extruding heat-reactive, low-temp materials.


Sika Automotive manufactures bonding, sealing, damping and reinforcing solutions for the automotive industry with lightweight, robust and customised chassis components for OEMs across Europe. Thier acoustic inserts and precision engineered with proprietary materials. Using the 3devo Composer 350, Sika are able to process heat-reactive, highly expandable thermoplastic material into 3D filament, streamlining their manufacturing and prototyping processes by being able to additive manufacture prototypes in the same material in production.

Sika’s cavity sealers typically go through 5-10 design iterations and as their products are injected molded, prototypes were costly to produce and design cycles were lengthy waiting on molds to be produced, tested and re-iterated, so they wanted a cost effective solution to be able to prototype materials and needed a solution that could process medium melt flow index polymers without changing its chemical composition.
To be able to 3D print their cavity sealers, they needed a filament maker that could sucessfully process their SikaBaffle material, which was already available in its pellet form. With alow melting point of 90 degrees, this made it incompatible with most extruders, except for the 3devo Composer 350, which is sucessfully able to extrude the material and create filament.
By creating their own filament, Sika are able to reduce the lead times by 90% being able to get the saame process done in 2-5 days instead of 4-8 weeks.

Grid, Stepped Grid and Randomise Object Placement sample studies have been included for users to create and validate room layouts design alternatives. A great post can be found here on the topic.
With COVID-19 and social distancing guidelines in place, generative design can be used for such applications.
Formit Converter
Using Formit for conceptual massing and design with complex geometry can easily be converted and imported in Revit with the new 2021.1 release for modelling early stages in design.
Import
Import SAT, Rhino and Sketchup 202 files and export STL files natively from Revit which may assist in 3D printing and mesh workflows.
Improved Panel Schedules
See the properties of elements via the system browser within a working panel schedule.

IMAGINiT Utilities for Vault Client
…
With the push towards cloud computing, connectivity and collaboration, Autodesk Vault has largely remained a local network environment data management system. It had recently added project sync where Vault data could be synchronised with BIM 360 or Fusion 360 Teams cloud systems, however, lacked it’s own mobile application.
They recently announced a webinar on August 25, where they will be showcasing the new mobile app for Autodesk Vault.

Autodesk Vault can also be hosted in the cloud. If you’re interested in running Vault in the cloud, Design Consulting offers cloud hosting and system deployments for Vault.
