3D Modeling for 3D Printing and Laser Cutting on Fusion 360

О курсе

Updated in May 2025. This course now features Coursera Coach! A smarter way to learn with interactive, real-time conversations that help you test your knowledge, challenge assumptions, and deepen your understanding as you progress through the course. In this immersive course, you'll begin by mastering the fundamentals of 3D design using Fusion 360. Starting with software installation and exploring the user interface, you'll quickly transition into your first 3D modeling projects, such as a chair and various platonic solids. These lessons will help you grasp key design principles, from sketching to applying constraints and arcs. As you progress, you'll dive into modeling objects specifically for 3D printing, including everyday items like a phone charging station and customized tools like an Allen key. Each project introduces different modeling techniques while covering the practical aspects of 3D printing, such as material choices and design tolerance. The course then transitions into laser cutting, where you’ll design intricate items like a lamp and a custom box. By focusing on parametric product modeling, you'll learn to create designs that are both precise and adaptable. In the final phase of the course, you’ll take on more complex projects, including a 3D printed hinge with moving parts, while refining advanced techniques like rendering and model refinement. By the end, you'll have the knowledge to execute professional-grade designs ready for 3D printing and laser cutting, along with a fully finished project that showcases your new skills. This course is designed for beginners with no prior experience in 3D modeling or CAD software, as well as intermediate users looking to enhance their skills in 3D printing and laser cutting. A basic familiarity with computers and design software is recommended but not required.
