A solid part model generally consists of a group of features, added one at a time, until the model is complete. Engineering solid models are built mostly with sketcher-based features; 2-D sketches that are swept along a path to become 3-D. These may be cuts, or extrusions for example.
STL is a file format native to the stereolithography CAD software created by 3D Systems. [3] [4] [5] Chuck Hull, the inventor of stereolithography and 3D Systems’ founder, reports that the file extension is an abbreviation for stereolithography, [6] although it is also referred to as standard triangle language or standard tessellation language.
SLDPRT – SolidWorks 3D part model; dotXSI – For Softimage; STATE – A file used by the IaC tool to record information about what has been deployed by the tool. STEP – Standard for the Exchange of Product model data; STL – Stereo Lithographic data format used by various CAD systems and stereo lithographic printing machines.
The designer generally has access to models that others are working on concurrently. For example, several people may be designing one machine that has many parts. New parts are added to an assembly model as they are created. Each designer has access to the assembly model, while a work in progress, and while working in their own parts.
STEP-file is a widely used [1] data exchange form of STEP.ISO 10303 can represent 3D objects in computer-aided design (CAD) and related information. A STEP-file is ASCII text with the format defined in ISO 10303-21 Clear Text Encoding of the Exchange Structure.

A rapid prototyping machine using selective laser sintering (SLS) 3D model slicing. Rapid prototyping is a group of techniques used to quickly fabricate a scale model of a physical part or assembly using three-dimensional computer aided design data. [1] [2] Construction of the part or assembly is usually done using 3D printing technology. [3]
In object-oriented programming, the factory method pattern is a design pattern that uses factory methods to deal with the problem of creating objects without having to specify their exact classes.
