dc.description.abstractIn this paper, we offer a very effective approach for extracting data from Computer- Aided Design And Manufacturing (CAD/CAM) step files and converted them to the self-descriptive and open-source HDF5 format. This format provides for the seamless integration of data and metadata inside a single file, making it ideal for dealing with complex data. The difficulties associated with converting CAD files between applications and the sophisticated data organisation inside multiple CAD file formats have motivated our research. The International standard ISO 10303 or STEP (’STandard for the Exchange of Product Model data’) addresses the format complexity and CAD data conversion problem between different computer-aided design (CAD) systems. We reviewed current CAD datasets like ABC and Fusion360 for geometrical data processing and created an algorithm that converts CAD models to open-source a human-readable format to feed deep learning algorithms directly and hence eliminating the requirement for third-party software for file conversions will be boosting the efficiency of CAD data administration and processing. To do this, we employ a method that combines data pre-processing as well as the development of an algorithm that converts around one million CAD models to the HDF5 format and uses the derived data for a number of applications, including machine learning and data analysis. The findings of the study lead to a better understanding of CAD data processing procedures and establish the framework for future research and development and integrate the converted dataset with PyTorch and TensorFlow to address current CAD system constraints,such as the limitations of standard neutral 3D CAD file formats that are difficult to understand. It opens the way for more efficient and simplified procedures in CAD-intensive sectors.en_US
