I am trying to make my own CAD file similar to the chute tutorial. I can model in SolidWorks and export as ASCII stl file. I do not understand what is "insertion face". Why is that important? and how do i obtain that?

insert/stream
the insertion face is just a plane where the particles are generated. it is used by insert/stream.
https://www.cfdem.com/media/DEM/docu/fix_insert_stream.html
just generate a surface plane above your geometry and export it as additional stl file.
