Fusion 360 Basics & Data management
What type of software is Fusion 360 used for in engineering?
What is CAD and 3D modeling software?
What is the first command you must use before drawing shapes?
What is Create Sketch?
Which tool draws straight lines between two points?
What is the Line tool?
Which feature turns a 2D sketch into a 3D solid?
What is Extrude?
What is construction geometry used for?
What is helping align and position sketches and features?
Why does Fusion 360 save files in the cloud?
What is to allow automatic saving, version control, and access from any device?
Why must engineers choose a plane before sketching?
What is because the plane defines the orientation and location of the sketch?
Which tool assigns numeric sizes to shapes?
What is the Dimension tool?
What two things does a Revolve require?
What is a profile and an axis?
What is a construction line?
What is a reference-only line that doesn’t create real geometry?
What is the Data Panel used for?
What is organizing, storing, and managing files and projects?
What is the purpose of the origin point?
What is serving as the central reference point for the entire model?
What do geometric constraints do?
What is control how shapes behave and relate to each other?
What does the Mirror feature do?
What is creates a symmetrical copy of geometry?
What is an offset plane?
What is a plane placed at a defined distance from another plane?
What does the Timeline at the bottom of Fusion 360 show?
What is the history of steps used to build the model?
Why is it important for sketches to be fully constrained?
What is to prevent shapes from moving or distorting when creating 3D features?
Why are constraints better than using the “Fix” command?
What is constraints allow controlled movement while fixing locks geometry completely?
Why do engineers use pattern tools instead of copying shapes manually?
What is patterns are faster, more accurate, and keep spacing equal?
What does the Section Analysis tool do?
What is cutting the model so you can see inside it?
What does “parametric modeling” mean?
What is a model that updates automatically when dimensions or parameters change?
What visual change shows a sketch is fully constrained?
What is the sketch turns black?
Name two constraints and explain their purpose.
What is Parallel (keeps lines moving in same direction) or Equal (makes shapes the same size) or Perpendicular (forces a 90° angle)?
What is the difference between sketch patterns and feature patterns?
What is sketch patterns repeat 2D shapes, while feature patterns repeat 3D features?
Why might an engineer use the Forms workspace instead of solid modeling?
What is it to create smooth, organic, or curved shapes using T-Splines?
