Supports 2D, 3D, mid-surface, and hexahedral meshing in a unified environment

What Does Meshing Do?

Designed for simulation professionals, the Meshing Module in MeshWorks provides a comprehensive environment for generating high-quality finite element meshes. It integrates multiple meshing techniques – including tetrahedral, hexahedral, quadrilateral surface, and mid-plane extraction—within a single platform. By leveraging AI-driven feature recognition and intelligent meshing templates, the module automates workflows, reduces manual effort, and maintains full associativity with underlying CAD geometry. This enables fast regeneration of meshes after design changes, improving productivity and adaptability throughout the simulation lifecycle.

Minimal CAD Cleanup

Mesh directly with minimal CAD preparation, eliminating time-consuming geometry corrections.

High-Speed Mid-Surface Generation

Mid-surface extraction delivers up to 50% faster performance than traditional methods, accelerating meshing cycles.

All-in-One Meshing Environment

Supports a wide range of meshing types—including tetra, hexa, plastics, and sheet metal—within a single unified framework.

Automated Batch Meshing

Enables system-level meshing through batch processes, maximizing speed and consistency across large assemblies.
