As a reminder, Fusion 360 for Personal Use does have some limitations. Here are the main limitations:


  1. Non-commercial use: The free personal version is for non-commercial use only.

  2. Functional limitations: Some advanced functions, such as simulation and generative design, are not available.

  3. File limit: You can only have 10 files in use or editing, but you can store an unlimited number of archived files

  4. Export format: Can export to .STL and .OBJ formats


For most beginners, even with the above limitations, it is still sufficient for use. If you have more usage needs, you may need to consider upgrading to the paid version.



After the installation is complete, what should I do next? If you don’t know how to start making 3D models, the next step is of course to participate in our Idea to Done 3D workshop. We will teach you how to use Fusion 360 Free Personal Edition to realize your design ideas!
