Assembly Models with Autodesk Fusion - Coggle Diagram
Assembly Models with Autodesk Fusion
What is Assembly Modelling?
Bringing multiple parts together to form a larger, complex product model
To represent and analyse how individual parts fit and work together.
Done using Computer-Aided Design (CAD) software.
how it works
begins with base
Each component needs to be oriented and located relative to other components
joints are used between elements of components
Benefits collaboration among:
Engineers
Manufacturing technicians
Designers
For sustainability
Fewer Physical Prototypes Needed
eliminate the need for multiple physical prototypes
saving materials, energy, and costs
More Efficient Manufacturing
reduces errors during actual production
cuts down on waste, speeds up production
minimizes the environmental footprint of manufacturing
Smarter Product Design through Virtual Interfacing
resolve issues like misalignments, gaps, or improper connections
prevents wasted materials
Types of Joints in Autodesk Fusion
Cylindrical
provides two degrees of freedom
one translational and one rotational
Pin Slot
allows two degrees of freedom
components can rotate around different axes
Slider
a single translational degree of freedom
for components that slide along one another
Planar
allows three degrees of freedom
allows two directions of translation in a plane
a single rotational direction normal to that plane
Revolute
a single rotational degree of freedom
Ball
has two degrees of rotational freedom, pitch and yaw
pitch
allows components to rotate around the Z axis
yaw
rotates components around the X axis
Rigid
A rigid joint fixes two components to one another
no degrees of freedom
