Manufacturing
From high-efficiency roughing with Adaptive Clearing to simplified control of multi-axis machines with Tool Orientation, Fusion 360 makes it easy to program your CNC machine, fast. Manufacture with 2.5, 3, 4, and 5-axis milling, probing, turning, mill-turning, and profiling operations paired with a powerful post engine all included alongside professional design tools.
Machining Extension
Extend the CAM capabilities of Fusion 360 with more advanced manufacturing technologies, including 5-axis programming, toolpath optimization, process automation, on-machine verification, and more.
2.5 & 3-axis Milling
Quickly set up jobs and generate toolpaths to machine quality parts while reducing wear on your tools with fully integrated CAM, including 2.5 and 3-axis operations.
The quality of parts coming off our machines has improved due to more efficient programming strategies, as well as the integrated CAD environment.
- Jonathan Bancroft G2 Crowd
3+2 Milling (5-axis Positional)
Leverage your shop's multi-axis capabilities with straightforward positional 5-axis programming that will significantly reduce machine setup time between operations.
With our other program, it would take an hour to calculate toolpaths. With Fusion 360, just couple of minutes.
- Jeff Hooper Backhand Bikes
4-axis Milling
Create indexed or wrapped toolpaths using the rotary axis of your machine for complex geometry.
I needed the ability to cut path the base of the part to avoid tool charges. This has allowed me to reduce the production time by nearly 80%.
- Dave Killalea
5-axis Simultaneous Milling
Mill complex geometry, avoid collisions, and reduce tool lengths for superior surface finished with simultaneous full 5-axis operations.
I can have something from design stage to off the machine in one hour.
- Phil Butterworth MJK Performance
Setup Probing
Leverage in-machine touch probes to shift work offsets and simplify your setup process.
Fusion 360 is our CAM workhorse. It has be able to do everything we have needed so far.
- Administrator Machine Shop
Turning
Program 2d turned parts and verify your turning toolpaths with stock simulation to identify errors or collisions with the model, stock, tools, and workholding.

- Administrator Machine Shop
Mill-Turning
Combine milling and turning operations to create more complex parts without switching machines.
Fusion 360 has reduced our time to market by about 60%.
- KMP Motorsports
Water Jet, Laser Cutter, Plasma Cutter
Generate toolpaths from solid model features, including flattened sheet metal components, to operate water jet, laser, and plasma cutters.
Full-features CAM and CAD reduced time to make products by over 20%.
- Sean Miksys Great Lakes Machining
Free Post Processsor Library
Post full NC programs in seconds with a post from our extensive library of free, open source, and fully editable post processors.
On our very first project, we saved over $14,000 by reducing cycle time by 9 minutes with no additional tool wear.
