Joints in Fusion 360 can simulate lots of different kinds of movement. In this case, for example, we need a joint that can simulate both sliding along an axis as well as a rotational movement. This means that we’re going to want to use the cylindrical joint.
The cylindrical joint lets you simulate movement along an axis and adds a spin. This is perfect for a nut and bolt as the nut needs to spin as it works its way along the threads.
In addition, we can use joint limits to limit how far along the bolt the nut can go, and motion links to link the movement of the nut to the rotation of the nut to make the object more realistic!

Hi everyone! What other kinds of joints would you like to see in Fusion 360?

Can you do more in assembly.... 🙂

Sir I want simulation of bending a sheet metal Embossing process

@oorlyg 2 года назад

I'm doing a Bayonet Mount. I first model it on Rhino (I know, I know but I'm being introduced in Fusion) But can't seem to make it work.

@calebkpordugbe6308 2 года назад

How can I do this in the animation workplace.

@krisjay1558 Год назад

thanks for the video, well presented. shame F360 doesnt have a drop down there for SAE/Metric threads such that you set the distance based on the threads. 1/4"-20 is 20 turns per inch. it is fairly important for positioning machines to simulate that. learned a lot. thank you.

@TechnoWit3D 2 года назад

nice tutorial. Ist possible to mate the surface betwen threads so it really actual rotating based on the thread?.. like in solidworks.

@piesdescalzos27 3 года назад

So, you would want the rotation distance to match the pitch of the two threaded bodies (nut & bolt), right? If I did as shown in the video would it work to do a finite element analysis?

@neddy1703 3 года назад

Thanks, amazing! I found that if set the length for a 360 rotation to the same amount as the thread design (i'm using metric threads, so it might be easier), then it looks to rotate perfectly.

@mitsuracer87 9 месяцев назад

So for example, if using an m16 thread, which is 2mm per thread, then you'd say 2mm Distance and 360* rotation, correct? That's what I did and it looks correct as far as I can tell

@JamesTumilty 4 года назад

I'm just starting with F360 and found this tutorial perfectly paced. Exactly what I needed. Subbed and will be going through the rest very soon. Thanks! 👍

@TheFusionEssentials 4 года назад

@Rv-mh5qu 3 года назад

The distance travelled for 360 should be the thread pitch.

@NibblyBitz 3 года назад

@pattygq 4 месяца назад

I'm making a nut and bolt and the nut has a blind hole. How would I work the bolt to only rotate down until it hits the bottom of the hole based on the threads?

@Four_Eyes Год назад

On my 5th video of yours - great stuff. You still out there? Curious why you're not posting anymore.

@TheFusionEssentials Год назад

Still out here, I just kind of ran out of time. This is my 4th RU-vid channel and I just couldn't keep up - still loving Fusion 360 though :)

@AlessioSangalli 3 года назад

My problem with this approach is that Fusion 360 is not aware of the clamping force exercised by the fastener, so it won't help with simulation???

@tomora4037 3 года назад

I am from Germany but this Videdo helps alot

@brianzar1943 2 года назад

Subscribed! I have a question though: so lets say that the screw you have is an M6 and the nut you have is a 1/4 inch (1/4"=6.35mm) in real life if you try to insert an M6 screw in a 1/4" nut they wont go in, if you import both from Mcmaster and try to slide them does fusion 360 show that they won't work or the simulation isn't a really practical and realistic and will show them sliding in?

@lowellm4645 Год назад

I think they will only go together if you have CONTACT disabled in the assemble drop-down menu

@aaronsaldanha2815 4 года назад

This is exactly what i needed. Thanks! "The Fusion Essentials"

@TheFusionEssentials 4 года назад

Glad it helped!

@stanburnett1958 Год назад

The actual pitch for a 1/4"-20 bolt is 20 threads per inch. Bolt = 2" therefore the bolt is 40 threads. Length = 2", angle = 40(360). Now the nut will spin synchronously with the bolt threads.

@aerolast 9 месяцев назад

its even easier than that: just do length = 1/20" angle = 360

Does using contact sets serve as an alternative to using joint limits?

@ivansitson8501 2 года назад

Sorry I meant motion link not joint limits

@ecsyntric 2 месяца назад

i was hoping this wasn't a simulation and fusion would automatically figure out the motion physics based on the the two screw surfaces

@rienzi18 3 года назад

How do you control the starting angle of the nut to avoid interferences between the teeth of the nut and bolt?

@MikkoRantalainen 2 года назад

I was about to ask how to make Fusion 360 do deduce this automatically? As in actually simulate the connection between those parts?

@CopperRivets 11 месяцев назад

@@MikkoRantalainen I'm still having this problem. I'm simulating a bolted assembly and it's failing where there are conflicts at the threads!

@CrankyCoder 2 года назад

This was a cool one!!! I had to play with it just to see the realistic turn ratio. VERY COOL!

@simcity3305 3 года назад

thanks so much for this! At the end of the video (around 9min.) you say "you could calculate the actual distance...". And that is what i need!!! Any help would be great! I dont want to calculate this by myself, but i am looking for a SW (maybe its not Fusion 360) that does this for me. So not really "animate" a movement, but "simulate" it- with real world conditions. For example - Simulate nut and bolt that don't fit and see the stresses (how the threads of each break)

@semicell 2 года назад

good tutorial, I found it extremely difficult to move my joints without glitches though. My objects have a much larger radius

@Itsdirtnaptime Год назад

I mean to make it realistic is good enough reason for me. I would set the revolution to the distance. Ps. Solving the thread pitch isn't that hard. English threads are how far did I move (forward) per one 360° rotation. The actual formula that you would type into the distance portion 1/x X is the threads per inch. In your case, you got a 1/4-20. The 20 is the threads per inch. So the distance, in this case, is: 1/20 Literally type that into the box and hot enter.

@pascaldenicou9869 3 года назад

Hi, and first of all thanks for your clean presentation. A Simple question: Is it possible to turn the bolt and see the nut moving linear instead of turning the nut to see it climbing the bolt ? Thanks :)

@dellsdiy 2 года назад

yes you can, just ground the Nut instead of the bolt. apply the rotation to the bolt and you'll see the bolt move in and out of the stationary nut

@francinamarjanci 2 года назад

WHERE IS THE Dowel Joint

@MikkoRantalainen 2 года назад

I think this should be called animation instead of simulation because the threads are still intersecting for this animation.

@CopperRivets 11 месяцев назад

Were you ever able to get the threads to not intersect? I'm still unable to simulate a bolted connection.

@MikkoRantalainen 11 месяцев назад

@@CopperRivets I'm not aware of any way to do actual thread simulation. Everybody just seems to be fake it instead.

@vio3667 9 месяцев назад

IDK why app can't see both things as solid physical objects and can't simulate by it self. Even 10-20 usd games allows you create physical object and simulate on real world conditions. It is annoying.

@giuseppe1912 9 месяцев назад

THE JOINT IS NOT SOO GOOD. as others write, tuo didnt to the right match btw the nuts and the screw

@autofctrl Месяц назад

Well.. the video does not really match the description as the movement does not correlate to the thread. No good! After a lot of fiddling around I noticed that if you set the distance (in motion link) to the exact height of the thread it gets pretty close, to almost perfect. The distance and rotation angle is basically the amount of rotation done on that given distance.
