Fusion Flicker - Set Up Single Origin, Use Multiple Work Offsets & Pattern Parts In Design and CAM Media

Published: 2 years ago

A Fusion Flicker is a very short video covering a learning point in Fusion 360. In this video I show how to use a single Point of Origin on your machine to set up multiple parts from. Whether you are using a vise or a pallet system like a Pierson Workholding system, using a single origin can speed up your set up time by reducing how much you probe. Then I go into using multiple work offsets. If you have more than vise or other clamping system this can really increase your production time machining more than one part. Finally, I cover another way to boost productivity and that is by patterning your part across your jig or pallet. After you design your part you can quickly pattern the whole body or component. You can use this same pattern functionality to quickly pattern your manufacturing steps or CAM across multiple parts.

Several ways to accomplish a similar end result in Fusion 360 and increase your CNC Production Efficiency of the same part. I am a fairly new Fusion 360 user so this video is designed for Fusion 360 Beginners. There are a lot more shortcut keys and I am sure even more efficient ways this could be done. I just wanted to share what was working for me so far.

Thank you for watching!
