Global Thickness

Global Thickness

Global Thickness analyzes the whole piece against a minimum wall thickness and paints the verdict on the model: green where the walls exceed the minimum, red where they fall below it. Thin walls surface on their own — no probing required.

You set the minimum thickness in the command line when the command starts; the default is 0.6 mm. A command-line option lets you keep or discard the analysis mesh once you are done reading it.

Use it as the casting sanity check on every piece: anything red is a wall that may not fill, or a section too fragile to survive polishing. To measure an exact value at one spot instead of a map, use Thickness.
