  Hello
  "The surface mesh is intersecting or close to intersecting, making it difficult to create a volume mesh. Please adjust the mesh size or adjust the geometry to fix the problem."
  The picture shows a rear wheel triangle for a mountain bike. I don't know why I always get this error. The part is imported from a step file modelled in Inventor.

  Please check geometry in SpaceClaim.
  Select geometry in structure tree --> Use right click --> Select Check Geometry. (Or Tools - Fault Detection in DM)
  The geometry should be error free to proceed.
  If geometry has any errors, please modify/recreate geometry at those places.
  Also check mesh sizing. You may need to change mesh sizing.
  Please check following videos
