![]() We take your existing skills and learn how to tailor designs specifically for 3D printing. This course was designed for those with some experience of Fusion 360. If you have some experience with Fusion 360, such as a completed beginners course, and would like to learn how to use Fusion 360 specifically to create models for your 3D printer, then this is the course for you.Ĭreate 3D models, learn how and why to break them down into manageable parts, create different types of connections and learn the techniques and processes involved to create your own tailored designs in Fusion 360. Tools like ZBrush, Rhino, and even Blender are a better choice there.Are you tired of only being able to print models you can find online? Would you like to learn the design skills in order to allow you to create your own designs for 3D printing? Do you want to be able to create models that nobody else has that you can then sell for profit! This course will allow you to quickly start using Fusion360 to create printable 3D designs. The downside of this CAD-like power is that it's much less capable of "sculpting" organic models. Realizing you need to tweak the tolerances on a part halfway through the design is fairly easy you can go back any number of steps in the model's creation and modify the parameters used on a specific part, changing a hole's width or a groove's depth without altering any other parts of the model. This makes using it to design hinges and other moving mechanisms orders of magnitudes simpler it also preserves an ongoing, editable history of the part being modeled. That emphasis means it's fantastic for producing mechanical parts, and it can simulate how multiple separate parts will interlock and work with each other in 3D printed devices. While it's less rigid than its big brother AutoCAD, making the most of it will require thinking about the structure of your model rather than simply its appearance. It focuses on a "mechanical engineering" approach to modeling rather than artistic, organic sculpting. Most of my work with Fusion 360 has focused on its 3D modeling capabilities, and its liberal licensing policies for hobbyists has made it popular in that space. You find out how good a company is when things go wrong and Autodesk/Fusion 360 have proved to me they are a really poor company. I will be cancelling this subscription and finding a better more customer driven CAD company. The lost business and problems this package has cost me is way more than the total it costs for the year. I have now been unable to use my CNC machine for 2 days I cannot find any direct way of speaking with Autodesk or Fusion. With a small business I really do not have time to be sitting down reading forums and watching videos I already work 50-60 hours per week. I had 2 replies the first was as follows "we are not changing the post processor back and it's not that difficult" (but no real help or advise), the second from engineguy (mentor) saying we have been posting on the forum for months the changes and I should be reading the forums and watching the videos. However, as I couldn't use my CNC without fear I would be crashing the head into the bed I posted my issue. I'm not a big user of social media and I would honestly prefer not to be posting my issues for all to see and for this to be the only means of communication I find really unprofessional. When the call did come through it lasted a total of 5 minutes and 13 seconds and I was told they were unable to help as it was beyond their technical help and I was to post my issue on the forum. Fusion 360, if you have a problem like I did last week you have a to book a scheduled call being the UK this meant 7pm on a Friday night 4 hours after I needed the help. You come off the telephone feeling you have added to your knowledge all within 30 minutes. ![]() ![]() With SOLIDWORKS you call a telephone number and a person picks up, your talk through your problem, they understand and if needed log on to your PC and explain the issue. The difference between SOLIDWORKS and Fusion 360 after sales is stunning. This is when the real issues with Fusion 360 started as there is NO customer service and really poor technical help. However, last week Fusion 360 changed the post process and this threw up several warning symbols which were not there on the older version. This was a good simple and cost-effective solution to our CNC programming needs. I use SOLIDWORKS mainly for all our designs but use Fusion 360 for the CNC machining.
