Automatically determine Fill Levels and Internal Volumes

The software 3D_Evolution Simplifier, known for data reduction and know-how protection, allows the automatic determination of fill levels in tank systems or room volumes in air conditioning systems and vehicle interiors with a newly developed functionality.

The German-French software manufacturer CoreTechnologie has added new functions to its renowned 3D_Evolution Simplifier software. In addition to the generation of 3D envelope geometries for data reduction and know-how protection, the new tool now performs the otherwise very time-consuming calculation of the interior volume for determining fill levels in tank systems or other spatial volumes in complex assemblies such as vehicle interiors at the push of a button.

Simple Data Determination and Processing
From a user-defined starting point within the assembly, a virtual balloon is inflated to represent the volume of air or liquid in the interior. If necessary, auxiliary geometries are generated in the software to limit the interior volume or to define specific filling heights. The calculation and representation of the interior volume is done by a voxel model with freely definable edge length, influencing the calculation accuracy. The inner volume is represented by a triangulated solid, which can be converted into formats such as jt, stl or cgr for further processing in other systems. The virtual balloon can also be used in data simplification for automatic selection of interior or exterior components.

The tool processes over 40 different 3D formats, including Catia, Creo, Nx, Solidworks as well as JT and STEP without access to a CAD license and can therefore be used flexibly in any environment.
