Area Tool Max

Area Tool Max is the definitive 3D surface area calculator and component inspector, 3D printing professionals, and industrial designers..

Designed with a modern Liquid Glass aesthetic for macOS and iOS, Area Tool Max instantly analyzes complex 3D meshes and multi-part assemblies.

KEY FEATURES:

• HIGH-PRECISION 3D SURFACE AREA
Compute exact surface area using native SIMD vector cross-product math across millions of polygons in milliseconds. Displays unrounded results up to 4–6 decimal places.

• MULTI-UNIT CONVERSIONS & SCALE PRESETS
Seamlessly toggle between Millimeters (mm²), Centimeters (cm²), Meters (m²), Inches (in²), and Feet (ft²). Quick-scale presets (1:1, 1:2, 1:10, 10:1) with automatic scale adjustments.

• INTERACTIVE 3D EXPLODED ASSEMBLY VIEW
Smoothly disassemble multi-component machinery using radial explosion vectors. Scrub the disassembly slider from 0% (assembled) to 100% (fully expanded) or jump between states with tactile feedback.

• DETAILED COMPONENT BREAKDOWN (BOM)
Inspect every individual submesh with isolated part ghosting, percentage of total surface area, polygon counts, vertex counts, and dimensional bounds.

• WIREFRAME & BOUNDING BOX HUD
Inspect polygon topology with one-tap Wireframe rendering and 3D Bounding Box extents. Snap camera views to Isometric, Front, Top, and Side.

• PROFESSIONAL VECTOR PDF & CSV EXPORTS
Generate comprehensive single-page engineering inspection reports in vector PDF or export CSV spreadsheets for your BOM, quoting, and manufacturing workflows.

• UNIVERSAL FILE SUPPORT
Native viewer and analyzer for USDZ, STL (ASCII & Binary), OBJ (Wavefront), and DAE (Collada) files. Open directly from Finder, Files app, AirDrop, or drag-and-drop.

• 100% PRIVATE & OFFLINE
All geometry processing occurs locally on your device via Metal and SceneKit. Zero network telemetry, zero data collection.
