#Autocad vs fusion 360 Pc#

* before wondering if I have a PC coming from some scrapyard: I do use CircuitStudio on same pc with no flaw at all. Assumed that, how am I supposed to work professionally with ECAD in that (con)Fusion environment? Why am I forced to buy a new PC with half-a-grand worth display card in order to be able to run Fusion without jerky, rickety, convulsive behavior at each action I do on it? Why Fusion has the power to crash Eagle, as well as Fusion itself, without a message? Is it a new feature? It simply disappears. no, better to not spend a single word about adding 3D packages to existing libraries.

Why this happens every time I update a single comma in a single element of a single managed library? Why, when I'm using Eagle and pushing to Fusion, am I forced to lose a LOT of time *every* time? why Fusion still hasn't an Arduino programmer embedded in it? C'mon. If Fusion does mech&tech&whatever, and now electronics, why I'm still unable to do my corporate accounting on it? Eagle was a quite good ECAD, why devasting it in that manner? Fusion is a 3D CAD, why not letting it to do its job avoiding messing with ECAD?

I spent a lot of time trying to figure out how to manage this new environment, I watched a lot of video tutorials, read a pile of docs, cursed a lot of divinities from antique Greece to today, then I got the following conclusions (yes, they are mainly sarcastic questions): Looking at Autodesk website I discovered this weird idea of encapsulating Eagle in Fusion. I've been working on Eagle since v.6 and recently - yes, pandemic did the magic - I've been for many months without orders (and without opening Eagle) so when I was supposed to use Eagle again I found it was the same as I've left quite a year before, with no updates.

Nobody in the world could force me to not agree with the above opinion.įusion is a complete disappointment. Hint, it's not on my premises under my control. There are too many quirks, things which don't work right, things which don't work at all, stability issues, oh and I am not looking forward to having the discussion with some of my clients about where their design data is stored.

I'm going to persevere with it for internal development projects just to keep up to date with its progress with a view to switching if it becomes stable enough.īest been trying to convert from EAGLE to Fusion Electronics for professional work recently and I have come to the conclusion it's really not ready yet. For me it's a non-starter for designs I am doing for clients. Right now I am seeing way too many down sides for Fusion Electronics which aren't anywhere near compensated for by the upgraded/new features in Fusion Electronics which haven't been added back into EAGLE. I don't even need to use Managed Libraries as I have a work around to allow me to map STEP models to footprints held within regular EAGLE libs. The 3D modelling is available from within EAGLE though, I create 3D board versions for all my clients using the EAGLE->Fusion360 link. I'm persevering with Fusion360, but only for designs where I need the 3D functionality (probably about 20% of my customers at this I can create 3D images of my PCB, which I can share with the mechanical design team (who are a separate organisation) and ensure there are no issues with my design fitting into the persevering with Fusion360, but only for designs where I need the 3D functionality (probably about 20% of my customers at this point) Some of my customers get nervous about this You need to get your head around the fact that all the files are cloud based, so managing your files is a different process from Eagle (where everything is normally on your local drive). You then spend days on these forums getting assistance to fix it. Things will work well for a few hours or days, then random things start breaking.

I'm talking 30sec to a minute before you're ready to do anything. Having shared projects is actually quite a handy feature I can create 3D images of my PCB, which I can share with the mechanical design team (who are a separate organisation) and ensure there are no issues with my design fitting into the enclosure. I moved from Eagle 6.6.0 to Fusion360 and this is my summary of my experience to date: There's lots of new features in the integrated Fusion360 + Eagle that you may or may not use.
