I have a mixed feeling with this so far as I entcountered some problems. See my following thread: > [@Imorted mesh from Salome is not merged anymore](https://prepomax.discourse.group/t/imorted-mesh-from-salome-is-not-merged-anymore/1973/3): > > this can be similar in feature requested below, currently there’s work around using external pre-post CGX by merging. However, another option to connect coincident nodes by equation has been proposed and may be available in the future of PrePoMax. But yeah you are absolute right that Salome has a strong mesher itself and can do all the stuff you want. On the other hand you need to import all the additional informations that you can use the graphical selection method in PPM e.g. surfaces for BCs. This could be a little bit messy in bigger models with many contact surfaces and so on. --- _[View the full topic](https://prepomax.discourse.group/t/modified-salome-geometry-import-in-prepomax/2182)._
