This is an interesting issue. It seems you used the "Blender" software to create this image. I am not sure if it has any difference in data format from Solidworks. You may try the following:

1: simulate each of the import objects and see if meshing is correct.

2: if the meshing is correct, please change the default mesh order for the "blobs" and check if meshing is ok.

You may try Solidwork if it fails again.
