Is there a way of making a mesh/ grid design like you can inventor. Teaching car design would like to do car radiator designs using something like pattern menue. 

Thanks

Hi Yogi,

If I understand your question right I think you are looking for the pattern command. Please see attached picture. If this is not what you are looking for please explain more what you mean by mesh/grid. Thanks

Hi Shekar

Thanks for your quick response, however it is not want I want.

In Inventor there is something called a plastic grill tool which allow you to make a grill with different design options. The grill

I want to make will be on a curved surface the type you find on a car. There is not the same tool in Fusion, I could use the pattern tool but just thought 

there might be a quicker way.

Thanks

Hi Yogi,

 

There is nothing equivalent to a Grill tool in Fusion similar to Inventor.

 

You can look at

 

1. Model, Modify, Split Face (Create the sketches on an offset plane and then split the face and then push/pull the faces, extrude join to create the grill)

2. Model, Create, Web (This is not what you are looking for but  just want to mention)

3. Pattern. I was thinking of creating the horizontal and vertical detail for the grill and simply pattern it. May not work for you and understood.

 

Please try it and if you need help you can post the file here.

 

Regards

shekar
