What Actually Matters
B-Rep vs Mesh
Mesh-based tools generate geometry using OpenSCAD. Ragnar generates B-Rep solids you can open and edit in any professional CAD tool.
Geometry Type
B-Rep, not mesh
Ragnar outputs B-Rep solids with proper faces, edges, and fillets. Editable in SolidWorks, Fusion 360, and Onshape. Mesh output can only be viewed, not easily modified.
STEP Export
Native STEP output
Download your model as a STEP file and import it directly into your CAD workflow. Mesh-based tools only export STL, which loses all parametric data.
Multi-Part Assemblies
Full assembly support
Generate complex multi-part models with proper positioning and material separation. Mesh-based tools generate single-body models only.
