Introduction to Fusion 360
• Fusion 360 is a cloud-­‐based CAD/CAM tool for
collaborative product development.
• Fusion 360 enables fast and easy exploration of
design ideas with an integrated concept to
production toolset.
• Use the 3D print workflows to create a rapid
prototype or the CAM workspace to create tool--‐
paths to machine your components.
• A 360 – cloud storage
• Email invitation

Pretty much the end-all, be-all of mechanical parts and tools. Downlodable CAD models for most fasteners,
power transmission products.

Exercise: the base design of a lamp
Step 1: Tools, Step 2: Select Object Type

From the menu bar, select Create->cylinder


Step 3: Select the Plane to Work On

You will see 3 origin planes pop up. Select the bottom plane.
Step 4: Draw the Circle

Then click on the center and drag to a circle.


Step 5: Updating the Dimension

Change the diameter to 350mm and height to 80mm.


Step 6: Default View

Now the cylinder is too big to view, so we will change the view.
On the top- right corner, you will see a house icon. Click on the
house icon. Then you will get the default view.
Step 7: Changing the Camera View

Now go to the view and change camera view from 'orthographic' to


'perspective to ortho faces'. This way, you will be able to see the 3D
model in a perspective view and 2D model in the ortho view.
Step 8: Preparing for a Tilted Surface

Our goal is to make the surface angel a bit tilted.


Go to 'modify' & select 'draft'.
Step 9: Select Work-plane

Then hover over right plane, left click the mouse & hold, select
work-plane.
Step 10: Select the Face of the Object

Then you will be asked to click the face which is the cylinder face.
Click on the cylinder face.
Step 11: Rotate the Surface

Hold the ring and rotate the surface to 15 degree. Then press OK.
Step 12: Round the Edge

Now we have an angled surface. We want to make the edge of the


surface rounded. Select ‘Modify>Fillet’.
Step 13: Make the Angel on the Edge

Then click on the top-right edge of the cylinder and bring it down
to 20 degree. Press OK.
Step 14: Final Look

Now save the project, give it a name. At the end, it looks like the
picture above.
That completes the base design of a lamp.
