Hide parts

For multi-part models you control which parts are visible.

Why use an online STL viewer?

STL is the most common file format for 3D printing. With this online STL viewer you don't need to open a CAD program to inspect a model. You immediately see the overall size, triangle count and estimated volume.

You can also check overhangs with a customisable angle and view wall thickness as a heatmap. That way you spot potential problems before printing.

Your file stays yours

Modelyser runs entirely in your browser. Your model is not sent to a server and you do not need an account. Perfect for confidential designs or a quick check without installing software.

  • No account needed
