Fabrizio Cimò

Fabrizio Cimò is an Italian engineer who has always had a passion for the world of 3D graphics and design. During his first degree in industrial design, he started uploading video lessons covering 3D modeling tools such as Rhinoceros, Blender, and Fusion 360 on his YouTube channel. Sometime later, Autodesk noticed his work and asked him to keep promoting Fusion 360 as an official student ambassador. During this time, he also joined Dynamis PRC, a racing team from Milano PT competing in the Formula SAE championship; thanks to this experience and his avid curiosity, he improved his knowledge of the manufacturing world. Today, Fabrizio works as a machine designer for an important company in the laser-cutting sector.

Summary

This concludes the chapter and the section on laser-cutting technology. Overall, it has been quite a slim introduction to lasers since there aren’t many options related to laser cutting to play with inside Fusion 360.

However, to recap what we went through here, we first found out why Fusion 360 is not the best solution on the market to implement cutting operations by highlighting most of its weaknesses.

Then we created our first cutting setup using one of the nested layouts we created during Chapter 12. While reviewing the options available for tool creation, we discussed a few important cutting parameters and their underlying importance.

Finally, we implemented the cutting operation itself and discovered the importance of tabs on the parts. Despite not being very detailed, I think this chapter was essential to get closer to the real world and its complexities.

It is now time to move to the next manufacturing technology: 3D printing!
