Using Joints and Constrain Components Together | Autodesk Fusion

Описание: Unlock the power of joints and constrain components in Autodesk Fusion with this tutorial on assembly workflows. In this video, we break down when to use each method, how they differ, and why combining both can give you faster, more precise control over your designs.

We begin with a wireless speaker assembly where components have been inserted but have no defined relationships. You’ll see how grounding the main brace locks it in place while all other parts remain free to move—perfect for demonstrating how joints and constraints build structure into an assembly.

Using the joint command, you’ll learn how to select snap points, align joint origins, match planes, and position parts instantly. We’ll show how a rigid joint fully locks a component, while switching to Revolute allows rotation around a circular edge. This makes joints ideal for quickly positioning mounts, brackets, speakers, and hardware with predictable geometry.

Next, we compare this with constrain components, which lets you lock down each degree of freedom one step at a time. Watch how cylindrical hole selections create a cylindrical constraint, followed by planar and edge constraints that gradually remove translation and rotation. This method excels when aligning curved surfaces, organic geometry, or parts without clear snap points.

You’ll also see how joints and constraints can work together in the same assembly—for example, using a revolute joint to place a speaker before applying a constraint to align mounting holes perfectly.

Whether you're building complex assemblies or just getting started, this video will help you decide which method works best for your workflow and how to combine them for maximum efficiency.
