Standard Processings (3-D)

3-D Standard > Standard Processings

You use the functions of the Standard Processings menu to insert standard bores and threads, free bores or shaft processing like relief grooves or feather keyways.

	Bores/Threads
	Through hole, variable
	Internal/external threads

Clicking opens a menu with further functions for Standard Processings.

Please note the following for thread standards:

In the catalogues for thread standards, internal (KERDI) as well as external core diameters (KERD) are managed. You can specify in the Configuration Editor at System settings > Standard Parts > Core diameter which of these values are to be used as core diameters for threads. You can choose between Bore diameter, Internal thread and External thread. The default setting is Bore diameter, i.e. the bore diameter of the screw starter will be used as the core diameter for threads (in the catalogues: column BORD, e.g. for DIN 13). If you change this setting, please note that the re-calculation of Standard Processings, boltings etc. in drawings from older HiCAD versions might lead to collisions.

After a new HiCAD installation the new default setting will be Bore diameter. After an update installation from versions older than 2015 (2000.0) the previous default setting will be preserved, i.e. the bolt diameter will be used. If you do not want this, change the settings in the Configuration Editor accordingly.

Please note:

Alternatively, you can access the functions for Standard Processings via the context menu for parts or via the context menu for Standard Processings.
For a subsequent modification of existing Standard Processings you can either use the functions of the context menu (right-click Standard Processing) or the functions of the Bolting menu.
