On the other hand, multiple parts can be fixtured\u00a0into a vise allowing for the machine to cut\u00a0multiple parts in one job. This workflow will reduce the amount of time required to set up a job. Fusion 360 streamlines this process by using the CAM Component Pattern. Fusion 360 recognizes when components are patterned. Simply select the toolpaths and the source component and the toolpaths\u00a0will propagate to the other instances.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Watch this video to see the CAM Component Pattern in action:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"wistia_responsive_padding\" style=\"padding: 56.25% 0 0 0; position: relative;\">\n<div class=\"wistia_responsive_wrapper\" style=\"height: 100%; left: 0; position: absolute; top: 0; width: 100%;\">\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Quick Tip: CAM Component Pattern\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/h5h0NYUkkJ4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><P><IMG border=\"0\" alt=\"ComponentPattern.gif\" src=\"http:\/\/autodesk.i.lithium.com\/t5\/image\/serverpage\/image-id\/216853i5A7AC2FBEFEABC06\/image-size\/original?v=mpbl-1&amp;px=-1\" title=\"ComponentPattern.gif\" \/><\/P><P>Reduce time when programming multiple parts in Fusion 360.
