Variable Through Holes (3-D)

3-D Standard > Standard Processings > Bore.

You do not insert variable through holes via the catalogue system for standard parts and standard processings, but you can insert them in any sizes by specifying the required dimensions like diameter, bore depth or countersink angle.

The following functions are available in the menu:

 

Please note:


Through hole

3-D Standard > Standard Processings > Bore

  1. After having made the corresponding settings, the Through hole dialogue window will be displayed.
  2. Enter the Diameter of the bore and confirm with OK.
  3. Choose the desired fitting type in the Grid toolbar - individual or multiple on a linear, polar or radial grid - , and, if required, enter the desired values.
  4. Specify the fitting position in the drawing. Position further copies of the bore, if required and available.

 

The diameter will be used as the name for the bore in the feature log, e.g. 10.


Blind hole

3-D Standard > Standard Processings > Bore > Blind hole

  1. After having made the corresponding settings, the Blind hole dialogue window will be displayed.

  1. Enter the Diameter, the Bore depth and the Point angle. You can influence the Bore depth via the Bore depth = Drill bit checkbox. If the checkbox is activated, the depth of the bore will be the bit of the drill.
  2. Confirm with OK.
  3. Choose the desired insertion type in the Grid toolbar - individual or multiple on a linear, polar or radial grid - and, if required, enter the desired values.
  4. Specify the insertion position in the drawing. Position further copies of the bore, if required and available.

Please note:


Slot

3-D Standard > Standard Processings > Bore > Slot

  1. After having made the corresponding settings, the Slot dialogue window will be displayed.

  1. Specify the Fitting point: (1) Central, (2) Start or (3) End.
  2. Choose the Direction of the insertion and enter, if desired, a Rotation angle.
  3. Enter the Diameter and the Hole width.
  4. If required, specify the depth of the bore or activate the Through checkbox.
  5. Confirm with OK.
  6. Choose the desired fitting type in the Grid toolbar - individual or multiple on a linear, polar or radial grid - and, if required, enter the desired values.
  7. Specify the fitting position in the drawing. The slot is inserted so that this point lies in the fitting position. Position further copies of the bore, if required and available.

 

The slot will be entered into the feature log with the name Slot dxl, with d being the diameter of the bore, and l being the witdth of the slot, e.g. Slot 10x20.


Rectangle

3-D Standard > Standard Processings > Bore >Rectangle

  1. Enter the Length, Width and, if desired, the Rotation angle. If you want to fillet the corners of the rectangle, also enter the fillet radius.
  2. If desired, specify the depth of the bore, or activate the Through checkbox. .
  3. Exit the dialogue window with OK.
  4. Choose the desired fitting type in the Grid toolbar - individual or multiple on a linear, polar or radial grid - and, if required, enter the desired values.
  5. Specify the fitting position in the drawing. Position further copies of the bore, if required and available.


Punch mark

3-D Standard > Standard Processings > Bore > Punch mark

Use this function to place individual or multiple punch marks arranged on a linear or polar grid. Punch marks are used, for example, to identify subsequent bores.

Before specifying the fitting position, you can use the right mouse button to activate a context menu. The functions of this menu enable you to change the fitting direction or the reference point of the standard part.
