Problem narrative

Non-manifold junctions confuse volume and shell queries Gaps and overlaps break watertight manufacturing solids

Unstable face IDs break features after rebuild

What “good” looks like

Good means reproducible geometry cases, honest diagnostics, and APIs your product team can extend for years — not a black-box SDK with surprise royalties.

  1. Detect non-manifold cases and offer guided repair
  2. Heal gaps with auditable, tolerance-bounded tools
  3. Implement persistent topology naming for features

How Hendoi engages

  1. Requirement workshop with geometry and product owners
  2. Architecture plan with written acceptance tests
  3. Implementation with milestone demos on your models
  4. Validation pack, documentation, and training handover
