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.
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?
Great. This solved a problem I had. thanks for this video. 06:42 there is something still unrealistic: the shadow's movement :-) I saved your video on my playlist because it's greatly useful
Cant do this on computer at my college because its an external file (not supported/allowed by college). Did everything right too. Any other ways of getting it in or do you have to do it like that?
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?
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.
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
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?
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)
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! 👍
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.
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 :)
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.
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.
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
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.
How can I do this in the animation workplace.

BRAVO! EXACTLY what I needed! No drama and 1h of lecture how, where, why, if, history of...! GREAT TUTORIAL! SUBSCRIBED!
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?
Thanks! Your videos are very helpful. Appreciate your work!
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???
Great. This solved a problem I had. thanks for this video.
06:42 there is something still unrealistic: the shadow's movement :-)
I saved your video on my playlist because it's greatly useful
Glad it helped!
i was hoping this wasn't a simulation and fusion would automatically figure out the motion physics based on the the two screw surfaces
I KNOWWW RIGHT. LIKE WHY DIDN'T THEY FIGURED IT OUT???
Thank you, sir, this is a superb video. Thank you for taking the time to make it.
Thank you so much! this is exactly what I needed.
nice tutorial. Ist possible to mate the surface betwen threads so it really actual rotating based on the thread?.. like in solidworks.
Cant do this on computer at my college because its an external file (not supported/allowed by college). Did everything right too. Any other ways of getting it in or do you have to do it like that?
On my 5th video of yours - great stuff. You still out there? Curious why you're not posting anymore.
Still out here, I just kind of ran out of time. This is my 4th TH-cam channel and I just couldn't keep up - still loving Fusion 360 though :)
FINALLY!! Thank you.
This is exactly what i needed. Thanks! "The Fusion Essentials"
Glad it helped!
How do you control the starting angle of the nut to avoid interferences between the teeth of the nut and bolt?
I was about to ask how to make Fusion 360 do deduce this automatically? As in actually simulate the connection between those parts?
@@MikkoRantalainen I'm still having this problem. I'm simulating a bolted assembly and it's failing where there are conflicts at the threads!
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?
Thanks, that's exactly what I'm looking for :)
Thank you for the vid, was really helpful!
Nice tutorial! Thanks!
What a powerful software! I'm impressed by these features. Beyond my imagination. Thank you for teaching!
HELLO SIR,,how can i add Mc-master car component in my fusion 360 ..please tell me
fantastic tutorial mate
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.

Thanks man! This has so much value!
This was a cool one!!! I had to play with it just to see the realistic turn ratio. VERY COOL!
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?
I think they will only go together if you have CONTACT disabled in the assemble drop-down menu
Great tutorial video! really detailed teaching

The distance travelled for 360 should be the thread pitch.
Thanks exactly what I was going to say
Does using contact sets serve as an alternative to using joint limits?
Sorry I meant motion link not joint limits
I am from Germany but this Videdo helps alot

Welcome aboard!

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.
Why shadow below is moving up and down?
Great ! Thank you very much.
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 :)
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
How to do same in autocad pls explain
Thanks man!
good tutorial, I found it extremely difficult to move my joints without glitches though. My objects have a much larger radius
Thanks!
I think this should be called animation instead of simulation because the threads are still intersecting for this animation.
Were you ever able to get the threads to not intersect? I'm still unable to simulate a bolted connection.
@@CopperRivets I'm not aware of any way to do actual thread simulation. Everybody just seems to be fake it instead.
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.
WHERE IS THE Dowel Joint
THE JOINT IS NOT SOO GOOD. as others write, tuo didnt to the right match btw the nuts and the screw

Too fast please slow 😭
The distance is the pitch size.
