Equip yourself with skills to design for the new possible. Design for manufacturing is the process of designing parts, components, or products with the understanding of surrounding design requirements for a specific manufacturing method.
Explore the design for manufacturing workflow, validate models, and practice creating G-code—the programming language needed to instruct a CNC machine how to move. Practice the basics of part and assembly design, and learn tools such as animation, rendering, and simulations using Fusion.

After completing this module, you'll be able to:
Define, solve, and review a static stress simulation using the Fusion Simulation Workspace.
Module outline
Define, solve, and review a static stress simulation using the Fusion Simulation Workspace. Computer-aided engineering (CAE) removes some of the guess work previously associated with design. Advanced tools like buckling or modal frequency analysis can help shape the parameters for design updates before prototyping or production. Walk through Static Stress Simulation setup, solve, and review process.
