Tutorial: Working With Subassemblies And As-Built Joints (Piston Example)
This tutorial leads you through the process of creating components from bodies in order to create an assembly that enables motion. In this tutorial, you perform the following actions: Create components from bodies and organizing components within subassemblies. Create a series of As-built Joints to enable motion within the assembly. Fix the motion of an …

Tutorial: Manually Adding Joints (Clamp Example)
When working with a bottom-up strategy, the components in an assembly are made independent of one another before being inserted into the same design. When in the same design, you can position the components correctly and manually add joints to define how components move relative to each other. In this tutorial, you add joints to …

Modeling Mechanical Motion in Fusion 360 (Assembly Modeling)
In the Design workspace in Fusion 360, you can create joints between components in an assembly. A Joint is a mechanical relationship that defines the relative position and motion between 2 components in an assembly. As you design an assembly with moving components, simulating motion is an important part of the prototyping process. In Fusion 360, joints reduce the …

How To Design A Photo Frame – Customizable (Fusion 360 Parametric CAD)
Use the steps below to create a photo frame that can be customized to any size. Using four variables, or parameters, we will define the size and shape of the frame. By creating a fully defined (i.e. constrained, or closed) sketch, our design can easily scale to other sizes. Click here to preview or download …

How To Use Parametric Design in Fusion 360 CAD
Parameters in values One great advantage of computer-aided design, as compared to other non-CAD programs, is the ability to parameterize the attributes (e.g. length of a line, number of copies of an object, offset distance from a plane) of the design. Just like in algebra, we can substitute real values for variables (referred to as …
