Geometry algorithms engineered to revolutionize. We help software engineers process, repair, measure and optimize 3D data with next-generation algorithms, reducing development time and costs — mesh boolean, mesh repair, decimation, offset, point cloud triangulation, ICP registration and voxel processing, in C++, C, C#, Python and JavaScript.

pip install meshlib                  # Python
dotnet add package MeshLib           # C#
npm install @meshinspector/meshlib   # JavaScript / WebAssembly

For C++ and C, see the Installation Guide.

Turn a scan into a triangle mesh:

from meshlib import mrmeshpy as mm

pc   = mm.loadPoints("scan.ply")           # point cloud from any scanner
mesh = mm.triangulatePointCloud(pc)        # point cloud -> triangle mesh
mm.saveMesh(mesh, "model.stl")

Boolean operations that just work, with no non-manifold surprises:

from meshlib import mrmeshpy as mm

a = mm.makeUVSphere(1.0, 64, 64)
b = mm.copyMesh(a)
b.transform(mm.AffineXf3f.translation(mm.Vector3f(0.7, 0.0, 0.0)))

res = mm.boolean(a, b, mm.BooleanOperation.Union)
if not res.valid():
    raise RuntimeError(res.errorString)
mm.saveMesh(res.mesh, "out_boolean.stl")

Heal a broken scan into a watertight, printable model. Voxel-based repair rebuilds the surface through a signed distance field, so holes, self-intersections and non-manifold edges disappear in a single pass:

from meshlib import mrmeshpy as mm

mesh = mm.loadMesh("broken.stl")

params = mm.GeneralOffsetParameters()
params.voxelSize = mesh.computeBoundingBox().diagonal() / 200
params.signDetectionMode = mm.SignDetectionMode.HoleWindingRule
params.closeHolesInHoleWindingNumber = True

fixed = mm.generalOffsetMesh(mm.MeshPart(mesh), 0.0, params)   # watertight
mm.saveMesh(fixed, "fixed.stl")

Voxel repair resamples the surface, so the result is denser than the input — add decimateMesh to bring the triangle count back down within a tolerance you set. Lighter, topological repair (fixMeshDegeneracies, fillHole, fixSelfIntersections) is available when you need to preserve the original vertices.

Measured, not claimed. Our boolean benchmark compares MeshLib across nine libraries on 2M-triangle models — method, data and input meshes. The simplification benchmark does the same for decimation across 11 libraries. Both are public and reproducible.

Manifold by construction. Meshes use a half-edge data structure, in which most non-manifold situations are simply not representable — a non-manifold edge, or a vertex with two closed rings of triangles around it. Broken topology is caught where it happens, not three pipeline stages later.

One engine, five languages. A native C++ core with official APIs for C, C#, Python and JavaScript/WebAssembly. The same algorithms, the same results — on the desktop, on a server, or in a browser tab.

Built for real workloads. Core algorithms are multithreaded; a CUDA module accelerates distance maps, signed distance fields, offsets and swept volumes on NVIDIA GPUs.

We use it ourselves. MeshInspector, our desktop and web application, and SmileInspector, our FDA-cleared clear-aligner platform, are both built entirely on this SDK, so it is exercised every day on real production data.

Supported, not abandoned. Backed by a full-time team with commercial support, regular releases and a responsive issue tracker.
