Hello,

I am trying to mesh few teeth which are in contact in mating helical gear pair. Is there any effective method which generates fine mesh without any errors and warnings? I tried seeding the edges of the teeth but it's not helpful as i want fine meshing on the few teeth which are in contact. It would be very helpful if anyone suggest me any method or give some useful tips for meshing.

Thank you!
