OVERVIEW

Product design is a way to transform simple ideas into tangible products that aim to improve everyday life. This combines design, science, technology and art to create something innovative and sustainable. In this course, you will learn to design a series of simple products using a professional CAD software, Fusion 360.

These models will be created from a 3D printing perspective – an evolving technology that is used to build complex parts instantly. In the second phase of the course you will be challenged to come up with an imaginative product through ideation, concept generation and CAD modelling. Your final product will then be optimized for 3D printing in terms of material use, time and quality.

TOPICS & PROJECTS

3D Visualization

Start thinking in 3D and visualize 3D geometries using Fusion 360.

Concept Generation

Get introduced to ideation techniques like brainstorming and sketching.

Parametric Modelling

Learn several CAD tools and features to create a series of products. 

Surface Modelling

Use the form tool to sculpt and modify organic shapes.

Assembly Design

Create products that have multiple components and joints.

CAD Inspection

Explore tools to measure dimensions and perform section analysis.

Product Rendering

Choose materials and environments to render images of your product.

3D Print Optimization

Tweak settings like supports, infill, layer thickness, print speed & temperatures.

3D Print Slicing 

Slice your products to simulate and preview the printing process.

Student Project 

Devansh (class 10) designed a modular planter, made of multiple permuto-hedrons. These parts interlock in a 3D grid, and can be stacked on top of each other.

Student Project 

Class 6 student designed lamp-shade by 3D modelling the product using spline, revolve, intersect and combine features.
