Overview

Prepare to build a strong foundation in 3D modeling and design using Autodesk Fusion (formerly Fusion 360) with this Fusion course for beginners. Your course covers the essential tools and workflows needed to create parametric models, assemblies, and technical drawings, preparing you for more advanced design challenges. Whether you are a student, hobbyist, or professional, this course will set you on the path to mastering Fusion and achieving your design goals.

You will practice applying precise dimensions, using parametric design history, and managing linked components to support efficient iteration. This Fusion training also covers advanced topics such as surfacing, plastics modeling, and the development of functional, multi-part products. By the end of your course, you will be able to generate manufacturing-ready drawings (like professional 2D drawing packages), create durable components for real-world use, and produce clear visual renderings and animations that communicate design intent via your 3D models.

Objective

What you will learn

  • Create and manipulate complex 3D product models using Autodesk Fusion's core tools
  • Design and assemble multi-component products with precise dimensioning and material application
  • Produce high-quality renderings and animations that effectively showcase your 3D models and professional 2D drawing packages for manufacturing and communication
  • Master advanced surfacing and plastics tools in Autodesk Fusion and create complex assemblies using linked components
  • Generate professional-grade product designs for manufacturing and durable components for real-world use

How you will benefit
