May 20, 2020 at 1:18 comment added Tim Laska @Tomi Thank you for the accept and your kind words. Just a word of caution about OpenCascade. Since it is a CAD package, you probably need to avoid non-manifold geometry (i.e., zero volume sections). Also, I may have discovered bug with the Cone primitive and that is why I revolved a triangle around the axis. I will contact support when I have time.

Added a faster version of intersecting function using RegionDistance and RegionNearest..
May 19, 2020 at 16:22 comment added Tomi I think I have identified the problem: posted a new question here: mathematica.stackexchange.com/questions/222199/…
May 19, 2020 at 15:21 comment added Tomi The disadvantage is that RegionIntersection[] is much slower than NSolve[]. Hence your particle advancer solution, which works very well - but I was hoping to be able to use the capabilities of NSolve[].
