Feature recognition is the technique used to extract the various features of CAD part model. This technique is efficiently converting the low level information of part model into the high level of information. The high level information contains the topological information which is required for feature recognition. There are several approached ate currently in use for feature recognition. STEP file in some approaches the topological information contained by the STEP file is used as input for feature recognition technology. STEP file is Standard for the Exchange of Product Data, an ISO standard exchange format. This format can used as standard exchange format among the various CAD part modeling tools. In this paper the techniques are elaborated which used the STEP file as input forfor feature recognition.
