  • if you are looking for a good 3d computer-aided design, engineering, and manufacturing software then, you will be interested in two popular ones known as inventor and Fusion 360. they are both similar and different in many ways but they can certainly be useful for you to work on your projects.

    This video is so lacking in detail, it never drills down to any of the actual differences. It also waffles all over the place, with statements like "If you're looking for a job you're better investing time with Inventor in addition to using Fusion 360". Gee, that's helpful (not).

    Pretty sure inventor would be Fusion 360 was a part of inventor until they realized they could squeeze a little more money but then they got less greedy and made Fusion 360 free then they got more greedy and started charging for it basically the constant fight between shareholders and innovation

    Fusion is best suited for the concept phase, while Inventor is better suited to finish a design and see it through production.
    As to the learning curve: I came out of AutoCad and had to completely rethink how I approached my drawings in Inventor. Once I figured it out it is not at all uncommon for my to have Inventor and AutoCad open at the same time, switching between the two formats without really thinking about it.
    While I can get around in Fusion I find the interface inefficient compared to Inventor but I need to have some knowledge of the program so I can better work with concepts produced by members of my team that are on Fusion.

      I'd say tinkercad is for mapping out your design, fusion is for making it, and Inventor is for polishing. That's usually how my workflow goes. Good thing I'm a student and they offer free versions of all the software

      @@martinsvensson6884 Maybe not for you but some of us have a much wider scope to our work. While I currently do most of my work in Inventor, I still need AutoCad, Revit, 3dsMax, Sketchup, Illustrator and several others to efficiently deal with the numerous files that are provided to me by my clients. And sometimes, despite Inventor being able to import numerous formats, you just can't beat working in the native formats to get the most accurate information.

    While using f360, inventor is better. Mainly in handling large assemblies, sheet metal, and documentation. I do find HSM better in f360, and it's ability to incorporate circuit design, and 3d printing.

    i used inventor as a student but now i am done and now it wouldnt be free anymore. So i switched to f360 and its good for single parts, but inventor had an menu for every hole and radius and stuff which fusion has not. so you model in fusion and cant click on the radius or hole and change it easyly. this makes it a pain to use for me.
    and multiple parts built together is horrible in comparison to inventor, you cant easily position parts and bind them to others as good as inventor could.
    for example you got to shafts and want them to be parallel and in a distance of 50 mm to each other so gears would fit. inventor easy and fusion a pain in the butt or i am just to stupid to find how to do it. but i learned inventor on myself to and would say, its way more intuitively desinged.
    Sorry for my bad english i am from germany and desinge small gas engines as a hobby to build them

      I'm learning Fusion now. Learned Inventor 3 years ago at my previous work. It's obvious Fusion is much more user friendly, modern, after using it some few weeks. What I note the most is big difference in error messages) In Inventor one, or I, get bombarded with error messages, and sometime the software just shut down. In fusion I hardly see any error messages) It's clear that Inventor is the way to go if one work with complex models above a certain size, number of components, and/or doing some special advaced operations. Luckily it seams Fusion 360 is more than fine for my use so far.

If they mix these two programs together and made an off-line version, they would have an amazing software.

I want to be able to manipulate parts quickly and no software does that, except autocad or fusion, not even inventor, solidworks , I don't know about catia , I'm tired of bring in it components and adjusting them to my proportions when all I can do is work out my proportions on the spot and 3dmodel in the instant fixing perfectly, do you get me!!? do you get me!!? is ther anyone outhere that gets me!!? is there anyone alive out there!

      Dude the concept of designing all the components in one window is actually messy. This means every component will be dependent on each other rather than being independent. You can't make changes for specific part because every other part is going to be dependent on the geometry of that part.
