Only then would the 3D geometry be converted into a mesh for export and use in, say, a 3D print slicing system.īut over time Autodesk has gradually been increasing the capability of mesh operations in Fusion 360.

Typically objects in Fusion 360 are created using CAD tools, where basic 2D and 3D shapes are assembled and modified into the desired shapes.

The increasingly popular 3D creation tool has long provided a way to create 3D objects for 3D printing and other making technologies including CNC milling and sheet metal fabrication.įusion 360 has for quite a while included basic mesh functionality, but as more of a sideshow than the main creation technique. A mesh object alongside CAD objects in Fusion 360 Īutodesk’s latest version of Fusion 360 includes significant changes to their mesh processing functionality.
