Volume measurement in 3D program

:DHi dear friends,
My question regards complex meshes. Say, I produce a 3D object and wanna know its vulume in, for example, cm3.
I need a 3D program which could measure the volume of the object.
I feel there should be some, capable of geometric evaluations of parts of the meshes with correspondent
coefficients and then composing the whole vulume.

Do you know of such?
Pleeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaase.

If Frenchy doesn’t know of a suitable program, then it doesn’t exist.

…can help you for this sort of thing :wink:
You have the free version 6.1 here :sunglasses:
Just import your file: some formats are possible
measures :distance, perimeter, angle, surface, volume, in any unities :+1: (inch, numeric inch, mm, cm, m, pixel, degré, radian, precision )
And wonderfull function it’s writed on your plan with arrows !!! :grimacing: :grimacing: :grimacing:
What do want more :smiley:

You can do that in any 3D package with physics simulation.
Just build a very simple weight scale. Assign a material with the density of one and the rest is basic high school physics. A good liquid sim is pretty rare. Otherwise that would be the easiest. In that case you would simply measure the displacement of the submerged body.

Very much vanks dear Moochie, Frenchy and Lemonnado!
Indeed,
on Frenchy’s advice I downloaded a demo of Amapi Pro verstion 7.16 and presently testing it.
All in all Zbrush functions much faster.
But I found the calculations all right. Seems the very thing.

About that physics program…
Could you recommend some?

Rhino 3d will also do that.

Thanks so much billrobertson42 vbmenu_register(“postmenu_306874”, true); .
I missed it was there. Very easily shown, and I prefer the interface of Rhino.
:smiley:
Have to install the Rhino once again, after many times of installing and deletin the program.

You’re welcome Anatom.

I do not use it much either, but there are some things that it does that are extremely useful.
