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.
