JCSG extension library for producing high-quality meshes from JCSG mesh objects. The mesh optimization is performed with the cross-platform meshing software ProMesh which is available as ug4 plugin.
// we use cube and sphere as base geometries
CSG cube = new Cube(2).toCSG();
CSG sphere = new Sphere(1.25).toCSG();
// compute difference between cube and sphere
CSG cubeMinusSphere = cube.difference(sphere);
// create a copy of cube-sphere that shall be optimized
CSG optimized = cubeMinusSphere.
transformed(Transform.unity().translateX(3));
// perform the optimization
CSG all = MeshTools.optimize(
optimized, // csg object to optimize
1e-6, // tolerance
1e-4, // max tolerance
0.25, // min edge length
1.5 // max edge length
);
// save optimized mesh as "all.stl"
Files.write(Paths.get("all.stl"), all.toStlString().getBytes());
- Java >= 1.8
- Internet connection (dependencies are downloaded automatically)
- IDE: Gradle Plugin (not necessary for command line usage)
Open the JCSG-MeshExtensions
Gradle project in your favourite IDE (tested with NetBeans 8.2) and build it
by calling the assemble
task.
Navigate to the Gradle project (e.g., path/to/JCSG-MeshExtensions
) and enter the following command
bash gradlew assemble
gradlew assemble
