  Hi I'm trying to import a pivot with a split face but as soon as I import it into AIM, the 2 faces are joined I'm getting the issue with both parasolid and step I tried to play with some import parameter like "Decompose Disjoint Geometry" and "stich surfaces on import" with no changes

  Hello proxicad Instead of selecting "Import Geometry file" option in AIM workflow, select "Define new geometry" option. This will open a blank SpaceClaim session within AIM. Now go to Model - Import. Select STEP file format from the list of file formats and disable "Improve imported data" option as shown below. This will retain the face splits.
