Validating model size/dimension for 3D printing?

Anonymous

I'm creating a collection of 3D jewelry to be 3D printed with an online 3D jewelry printing company in the material of my choice, such as steel, silver, gold, and so on.

 

Each material has specific requirements for a model wall thickness, details height, depth and width size and dimension.

 

So, this is my question:

 

Is it possible to have Fusion 360 analyze a model based on given dimensions to graphically display the errors such as the attached image?

 

For example, to set an analyzer for silver given the following data:

 
Minimum Wall Thickness: 0.6 mm
Minimum Details: 0.35 mm
Maximum Size: 88 x 88 x 125 mm
Clearance: 0.3 mm

 

So, if the model falls short with any of those requirements, Fusion would display where the errors are in order to correct them.
