When to Use Joints or Constrain Components? | Unstuck My Fusion Design @adskFusion

Uploaded October 2025 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago

Richard, a Senior Product Manager on the Autodesk Fusion team, breaks down the differences between joints and constraints in Fusion. He’ll show you how joints can quickly define positions with just two clicks and explain when constraints are better for complex geometries. You'll get a look at various joint types (like rigid, slider, and revolute) and learn how to use “ground to parent” to lock components in CAD space. Perfect for beginners and pros alike.

Both the Joints example and air fryer are in the Design Samples folder in Fusion
