Easy Ways To Learn Everything About Autodesk

Fusion 360

l Autodesk’s Fusion 360 is a cloud-based CAD solution. Officially released at Autodesk University in 2012, Fusion 360 was launched in 2009 through Autodesk Labs as Inventor Fusion.

l But it is not merely software installed on the computer. A $300 yearly subscription will fetch an industrial, mechanical and conceptual design tool, plus regular updates.

l Using a cloud-based design tool means every change made on the design is saved on the cloud and becomes part of a version history. There is ability to access each version of design, so every time a design is opened,one will see which version it is.

Collaborationl The ability to access data and share designs no matter of your location regardless of the device being used is what Fusion 360 is all about. If you’re an Apple user, Fusion 360 employs Handoff, which lets you resume your task, where you left off as you switch devices.

Animationsl Sometimes you need to show all the components of a product,

or how it goes together and comes apart. That’s why animations, or exploded views are indispensable. This capability works on all iOS devices, you can share this aspect of your design with clients, design team and manufacturers.

Distributed designl Fusion 360’s Distributed Design capabilities helps you to

create a few different designs and insert one of them into another design. It’s a convenient way for multiple users to do work on a design together.

Application programming interface

l Late last year, Autodesk introduced application programming interface (API) support for Fusion 360, which continues to open it up to more and more third party companies. For instance, although CAM capabilities are built on, you can now easily integrate the CAM tools of your choice.

3D Printingl 3D printing capabilities are integrated via Spark. Spark can generate supports for designs that require them.

The road aheadl Collaboration isn’t limited to the members of the

design team. To learn what’s next for Fusion 360, its developers include a road-map in the Autodesk section for the community section of the application’s website that mentions the upgrades one can expect to see soon.

l Such transparency also provides an opportunity to weigh on what one would like to see in future versions. Sometimes, proposed features include links with much more detailed information. Simulation would come soon as an instance and Fusion 360 developers shared what it will encompass and why. They also give a call for feedback.
