I think Boolean mesh operations are the only filters in VTK that are broken - randomly produce somewhat incorrect results and sometimes cause crash. There were attempts in the past to fix them, but the task proved to be too difficult for everybody.<br>
<br>
If you clean the inputs and/or slightly dislocate them then you might get correct results. If you need a VTK-based solution that works for any input mesh then you can convert meshes to binary images, perform the Boolean operation on the images, and convert
the result to mesh.<br>

I am already using vtkTriangleFilter and vtkButterflySubdivisionFilter to<br>
get fine triangle cells.<br>
Unfortunately, it didn't help.<br>
