There is provided a system for reading geometric data from parametric model or a nonparametric model from a CAD model file. The system has a processor and an interface application, which when executed by the processor, is configured to operably receive automatically, using a first interface application, an input file that includes data representing one or more components of a three-dimensional model, and is further configured to operably determine, using the first interface application, a type of a part represented by the three-dimensional model. The first interface application has instructions, one or more algorithms, or a combination thereof, and is further configured to automatically operably identify, select, and group geometric data associated with specific geometric data of the three-dimensional model, based on a set of parametric rules. The processor writes extracted specific geometric data to a first geometry intermediate output file.
