volume parameter

volume parameter

volume parameter

(OP)
I have a bottle-shaped part that is a revolve and a shell creating a hollow part.On my drawing,I want to show the volume of the inside of the part.I need to create a parameter so if the inside volume changes,the drawing would update to reflect the change.Any ideas?

RE: volume parameter

Troy,

Create an analysis feature which will calculate the volume, right before your shell. Then create another one as a last feature.

Add a relation and substract the second volume from the first volume. This is your void volume and it will update if you modify the part.
