The additive and drilling operation is carried out on 6 sides of the part. The holes can be made blind (no outlet) or through (through parts). Various drills are used for through and blind drilling.
Hole coordinates can be entered using numbers or formulas .
When unloading drillings onto machines, the system automatically adjusts:
- depth of through drilling (regardless of what is entered by the user, adjusted as material thickness + diameter of through drill)
- drilling depth for confirmation (through = material thickness + drilling diameter 7 mm). If the presence of countersinking is detected, it is adjusted to the countersinking parameters
- depth of through drilling from the reverse side (if it is determined that the machine can drill from the reverse side of the part only to a certain depth, the system splits the drilling into 2 - from the reverse side to the possible depth and from the front side additional drilling of the remainder)
Drilling diameters can be selected based on the drilling depth and the availability of tools from the manufacturer.
After adding a hole, you can see its parameters by hovering over it with the mouse in the part drawing. All dimensions are based on the dimensions of the part .
You can enter a shift (offset) in X and/or Y, the number of holes, and this number of holes will be created on the part with a given pitch .
