Reducing the mesh of a 3D model in Fusion 360 can greatly improve its performance and speed up toolpath generation. Fusion 360 allows for import of mesh models and preparation of mesh for use in the CAM workspace. One approach to mesh reduction is fast quadric mesh simplification, which reduces the polygon count of a model while preserving its overall shape. This process can be especially important for 3D carving, where a reduced mesh can improve the efficiency of the toolpath generation.

However, some users may encounter slow performance in Fusion 360 when working with large mesh models. To improve performance, it is recommended to reduce the mesh to a manageable size using techniques such as quadric mesh reduction. This not only improves the performance of Fusion 360, but also helps to ensure that the toolpath generation is accurate and reliable.

In addition to reducing the mesh, there are other steps that can be taken to improve the performance of Fusion 360 when working with CNC. By properly preparing the mesh for CAM, users can ensure that the toolpaths generated are optimized for the specific machining process being used. The Fusion 360 CAM workspace also offers a range of options for optimizing the mesh for efficient machining.

Overall, reducing the mesh and properly preparing it for use in Fusion 360 can greatly improve the performance and reliability of the software when working with CNC. Whether you are importing a mesh for 3D carving or using Fusion 360 for CAM, taking these steps can help to ensure that your machining process is efficient and produces the desired results.
