Improve your Autodesk Fusion competence around 3D printing workflows by learning how to repair broken STLs, design for additive manufacturing, position and support parts, and slice them in this part-color guide
As 3D printing gains traction, the demand for CAD experts in manufacturing grows. If you're a fan of Autodesk Fusion and crave hands-on experience with automated modeling, generative design, and the full potential of additive manufacturing, this book is your guide to elevating your design and 3D printing skills.
In this book, you'll learn how to open CAD or Mesh files in Fusion and expertly repair, edit, and prepare them for 3D printing. You'll unlock the secrets of effective print preparation, learning about print settings, support structures, and part orientation. This book also highlights Fusion's diverse preferences designed specifically for additive manufacturing.
Subsequent chapters will guide you in choosing the right part orientation and position, as well as creating suitable support structures based on your chosen printing technology. You'll simulate the printing process to detect and remedy common print failures associated with the metal powder bed fusion process. Finally, you'll leverage templates and scripts to automate routine tasks around print preparation.
By the end of this 3D printing book, you'll be armed with the knowledge and skills necessary to harness the power of Fusion for additive manufacturing, meeting the growing demand with confidence.
If you're a designer using Autodesk Fusion on a daily basis and want to delve into 3D printing or craft functional, lightweight prints, this book is your go-to. It's also a valuable reference for intermediate-level Fusion users seeking insights into DFAM (design for additive manufacturing) and print preparation.
To get the most out of this book, it's recommended that you have a good understanding of Fusion's design features, familiarity with opening CAD or MESH files, and prior experience creating components in Fusion.
