Volume Measurement in an Assembly
Volume Measurement in an Assembly
(OP)
I have a somewhat complex assembly with nesting cylindrical parts. It is a pneumatic system with o-rings separating the active chambers. I want measure the volume of two assembly variations to compare them.
I've seen some suggestions of making a solid in place of the volume but in this case that would be very time consuming and probably not accurate.
I'm considering saving it as a solid and doing some Combine magic.
Any suggestions on how to find the volume?

OR
Offset internal surfaces by 0 distance, knit inner faces into solid and measure them

Save assembly as part, and then delete outer faces. Knit inner faces into solid and measure them
