Ciao amico Carlo,Io non sono italiano ,mio bisnonno e bisnonna immigrato da Rovigo nel 1890.onekk wrote: ↑Tue Aug 30, 2022 3:12 pmOk now it is clear, what you are in need for.
Now it is clear that you are speaking of "molded parts" (plastica estrusa as I think you are Italian like me).
I doubt that something like this is actually available on FC.
As it is quite "specialized" and slightly beyond the "usual modelling tasks", as it involve some data analysis and extraction of geometrical data from the model, plus the organization of the computed data and a proper "visual report" using a graph and colorizing properly faces on the model.
I'm curious if this a usual thing supplied with stock version of the commercial CAD you have mentioned, or it is done using some specialized Addon?
IMHO it is not an easy task as it involve dealing also with the "Visualization Part" of FC, other than with surfaces, normals and such genre of things, but I'm not too skilled with this genre of things, I usually do "3d models" and I've done some "ad hoc" WorkBenches or less complicated programs for customers around the world.
I think that it will be a good challenge for some Macro creators and maybe now that the problem is explained someone will answer with some proposal.

Correct this application is very regular resource...all 3DCAD files have in yours basic functions Draft Analysis
like a Autodesk Inventor,SolidWorks,SolidEdge,Catia,NX....so is a usully resource.
In Plastic Injection Design in product and Tooling (parte e stampo a iniezione di plastica).
Fiber Glasses,carbon..anyway use this.
I Try to make a training,and book in Brasil about plastic Design and would to use Freecad as a teaching medium.
Another usyally resorce is Thickness analysis...use to verify with visual colors all Thickness about part (for prevent sink mark,warpage..etc..etc.)
So...how can we implement this feature in FreeCAD?
I would really like to help to implement this our these.
thanks a lot for all
Grazie amico mio
