What is an integrated CAD/CAM software? It’s a solution that combines the benefits of CAD (computer-aided design) and CAM (computer-aided manufacturing) programs into one system. An integrated CAD/CAM program takes you all the way through the design process to the manufacturing process and can either be based on…
MachiningPEMBREE uses Fusion 360 and a Haas mill to design, render, and manufacture fully carbon neutral mountain bike pedals.
MachiningThere’s no denying that sheet metal plays a pivotal role in projects across numerous industries. Sheet metal is commonly fashioned from steel or aluminum and typically takes a thin and flat form. Despite this, sheet metal alterations are commonplace — and essential — depending on the application in question. This…
MachiningHappy holidays! We recently tasked our social media community with designing ornaments to be machined live in our Birmingham Tech Center. Here are the results.
MachiningAs part of the December 2020 update of Fusion 360, we delivered a hidden gift just in time for the holidays: a new method for generating additive manufacturing outcomes. Internally, we call this project Additive 2.0, and it is part of our Experimental Generative Solvers and Features preview. This new method should go a long way to improve the…
