Description

In this course you will learn about Fusion 360 and how to design complex mechanical assemblies.

After the quick introduction to Fusion 360, section 1 explains step by step how to design slide-n-pop mechanism. The mechanism is used to hide an iPad Pro underneath the surface of a desk or a wall. When the arm rotates, the iPad pops up and the cover slides back. Behind this interesting motion are many parts that are designed to work together to carry out this motion properly. Through the lessons a great focus in given to explain the concept behind each part's design and why it's made the way it is. Throughout the course, you will learn about Fusion 360 power when it comes to assembly modeling. You will gain experience with top-down design using Fusion 360. Further, you will become very comfortable using Fusion 360 for any kind of design work later. This course is comprehensive and cuts through all the important modules in Fusion 360. By the end of the course, you will learn all the basics that you need to approach any mechanical design project in Fusion 360.

Section 1 starts from the ground up; modelling the frame and stationary gear, and moving up step by step to model the cover. You will watch how the mechanism is built step by step while observing the thinking methodology behind the structure of the model. All the modelling done is kept realistic and true to nature by using fasteners, proper sketches, chamfers and well selected materials. You will be getting a front seat to an inside look at how the professional do it.

If you're not familiar with Fusion 360, Section 3 will give you a brief introduction to Fusion. I'll explain the reasons that makes Fusion very special among other CAD softwares. This section includes an introduction to the UI, Data management concepts in Fusion and the special model structure. After that Rule#1 will be introduced and the methodology of the modelling will explained.
