    Physics Simulation

    Test your designs before printing. Drop parts, validate assemblies, check clearances—all with real-world physics powered by Rapier.

    Simulation Controls

    Per-Object Physics

    Every object can have its own physics properties. Make some parts heavy, others light. Pin reference objects in place. Control exactly how your simulation behaves.

    • Select any object to edit its properties
    • Steel density (7850 kg/m³) for realistic mass
    • Compound colliders for complex shapes
    • Timeline recording at 30 FPS

    What can you simulate?

    Assembly Validation

    Drop parts together to verify they fit. Watch gears mesh, check snap-fit tolerances, validate that lid fits on box.

    Center of Gravity

    See where objects naturally settle. Great for designing stable stands, balanced holders, and self-righting parts.

    Clearance Testing

    Pin one part and move others around it. Check that moving parts don't collide, verify assembly sequences.

    Drop Testing

    Simulate what happens when parts are dropped. Will your phone stand tip over? Does the lid bounce off?

    Timeline Scrubbing

    The simulation records every frame at 30 FPS. Drag the timeline slider to scrub through the recording. Pause at any moment to inspect positions. Great for analyzing collision sequences or finding the exact moment parts interfere.
