why solid union cannot work sometimes

hi guys

I have one big problem which has confused me for a long time.

i have lots of conical shape intersect with each other

and i try to use solid union to get the intersected geometry

but sometimes i really dont know why it doesnt work!

since there are quite a lot shapes to deal with, i cannot do the solid union manually one by one

both in terms of complex geometry and time-consuming.

sometimes it works and turn out the geometry like this

since this step is super critical in our project, i have to solve, but i really have no idea

can someone help me out?

thanks a lot

Hello Frantisek,

how can I use your VB-Script in Grasshopper, since I am more the user type, I am not at all into VB programming.

I also already recognized the the document tolerancing settings interact with bolean operations.

Thank you in advance for any advice.

Norbert.
