In addition, we provide full support for a number of products when used on the Mac in virtualized environments including Parallels Desktop and VMware Fusion. دانلود نرم افزار Slicer for Fusion 360 ایجاد قطعات برش لیزری دو بعدی از مدلهای سه بعدی و مونتاژ آنها.


Fusion 360 is a CAD program that is free for students, makers and small companies.It comes with a very powerful CAM suite.

Have a look at this Instructables collection for tons of project ideas involving this software!

There is an 'app store' for professional or community-built plugins as well.Several great extensions are collected here.

The technology is deprecated and is no longer being maintained and supported by Autodesk. Provided below is the final release of Slicer for both Mac OS and Windows. Disclaimer: As Slicer is no longer being developed or maintained, compatibility with future versions of Fusion 360, as well as respective Operating Systems, is not guaranteed. Legal disclosures. Autodesk makes software and services available on a licensed or subscription basis. Rights to install, access, or otherwise use Autodesk software and services (including free software or services) are limited to license rights and services entitlements expressly granted by Autodesk in the applicable license or service agreement and are subject to acceptance of and compliance. Slicer for Autodesk Fusion 360 is a tool to turn your digital 3D models into appealing artefacts. It slices and converts 3D models into 2D patterns that you can cut out of any flat material. The program also creates 3D instructions you can interact with to help build a model.

Fusion 360 supports editing inside the browser. This version of Fusion 360 does not yet have the full set of features, but might still be useful in case you can not install the desktop version.Log in with your Autodesk account and select 'Edit in browser' on any design or create a new project and select 'New => Fusion design'.

Multiplying Components

When you copy & paste a component, the copy will still be linked to it and mirrors all modificiations you make to another component of the same type.

In cases where this behavior is not desired, the best workaround seems to be saving a component as an individual file ('Save copy as') and inserting it to the design as a new component.[1] Unfortunately, there is no simple solution like SketchUp's 'make unique' feature in Fusion 360.

Slicer

Maybe you have used 'Autodesk 123D Make' before and were sad when it was discontinued - but with 'Slicer for Fusion', its functionality isn't lost!

With this tool you can 'slice' any 3D models into 2D parts (packed or with spacing) which you could cut out with your favorite machine and assemble them by means of glue and/or interlocking slots.

(not to be confused with Slicers for generating 3D printing pathways)

CNC Routing

also see 'Fusion 360 CAM Parameters'

Joinery

In contrast to a laser cutter, a CNC router can't cut perfect inside corners because the router bit is circular. To circumvent this issue, reliefs (so-called 'dogbones') are put into a design to allow the router bit to cut all the way. There are add-ons for Fusion 360 to help with the design of them.

Laser Cutting

You can export any sketch by right clicking it and choosing 'Save as DXF'.

Another option is to create a 'drawing' from your design and lay out the views in the corresponding window, but this is relatively complicated and only makes sense if you already want to arrange multiple pieces at this stage.

Bug fixes:

  • removed update notification

Autodesk Slicer For Mac Shortcut

Meshmixer 3.4 (January 15, 2018)

  • added ViewCube! See http://help.autodesk.com/view/MSHMXR/2019/ENU/ for more information.
  • added support for the 3MF file format. 3MF is an XML-based data format — human-readable compressed XML — that includes definitions for data related to 3D manufacturing, including third-party extensibility for custom data. Learn more about 3MF here: https://3mf.io/what-is-3mf/.

Bug fixes:

  • added more fixes for crashes and bugs due to the outdated graphics card drivers

Meshmixer 3.3 (October 31, 2017)

Big changes in this release:

  • Redesigned the entire Print workflow. See http://help.autodesk.com/view/MSHMXR/2019/ENU/ for details. We have eliminated 3rd party printing services that were not working properly and causing crashes. You can now easily add custom printers and use your printer software to do the actual print, or you can export your model as STL and send it to the 3rd party printing services.
  • Implemented Customer Error Report (CER) functionality. A report can now be sent to Autodesk when Meshmixer crashes, which will allow us to debug your issues in a more meaningful way. Please add your comments about how the crash happened.
  • Added a hotkey for toggling printer bed rendering

Bug fixes:

  • applying Offset to a mesh with boundary
  • silent install for Windows
