Fault-tolerant Meshing Workflow – small gaps

      Hi, 

      When I try to create a surface mesh with a wrapper, the mesher can not handle small gaps (compared to the size of the other solids) and the surface mesh of the two solids get connected when there should be a gap. 
       
      Despite the fact that the minimum element size in the local sizing is much smaller than the gap: the gap is about 40 mm, while the minimum element size set with proximity is 5 mm on both body surfaces. I also extracted the edge feature with intersection loop method. 
       
      How can I correct this error? 

      Thank you!

      Please give some named selection to faces in that gap. Then use local sizing for that faces. 

      Please go through help manual for more details 

      Regards,
