Abstract: This short note demonstrates the use of standard for exchange of product data (STEP) for interfacing design to process planning via a compact feature recogniser. The methodology used in development of the interface (feature recogniser) makes use of both automatic feature-recognition and feature-based design technologies in order to combine their advantages, and the STEP for the non-problematic and full information exchange. Using the abilities of the STEP, a generic configuration scheme is developed in which the features are treated as a combination of faces to which geometrical and/or technical information is glued (associated). By this way, the designer is only forced to identify the functional parts of the features when designing the part, which may simplify the component design and result in the effective memory utilisation. The feature recogniser was implemented in C on a PC and tested on a large number of examples with positive results.

Some speculations on feature recognition
John Woodwark
- 01 Aug 1989
TL;DR: In this paper, the possible use of the set-theoretic (constructive solid geometry (CSG)) solid model for feature recognition is discussed, in which the geometry of an object is interpreted in terms of geometric elements of engineering significance.

Custom-Cut: a customizable feature recognizer
TL;DR: An extensible representation which allows users to easily add their own custom tool descriptions to a feature recognizer’s knowledge base is presented and provides greater assurance that the features identifies are actually machinable with the given set of equipment.
