Modifying Plastic Bottle to Hold Exact Measure

I had a problem presented to me to determine the volume of liquid an existing bottle held and then modify the bottle, using Fusion 360, so it would hold an exact US Imperial Quart of liquid.  The plastic bottle model given to me to start with was a dumb solid body, no features or parameters.  I decided to use Fusion 360 to determine the existing volume the bottle would currently hold but to also use it to modify the bottle to hold the required volume.


In my video I used a variety of processes in Fusion 360 including:
  • Parameters
  • Solids manipulation using Combine, Split Body, Body Remove and others
  • Workplane creation
  • Move/Copy command
  • and others  
Please take a look and see how Fusion 360 can make the re-design of a product easy.
