Hi
I need to measure volume of a body after every step during a milling process. For explm.
as you can see in the Image- i want to drill two holes in a solid cube one after another and in between
i have to measure how much volume i have deducted in each step.
I have tried to save as IPW part, but i cant do anything rather than visualizing.

Have anyone an Idea. thanks in advance.

Hi,
Right click on a feature in MNT and select extract body here. Then you can calculate the volume for each step.

Save the IPW, which creates a facet body, then convert the facet body to convergent.
