Hi,
We (where I work) use creo 2. We use .hol tables that we've customized to have default values when using the hole command that comply to ASME recommandations. I see 4 columns in our .hol tables that control the dimensions of countersinks : csinkdiam, csinkangle, botcsinkdiam & botcsinkangle.
Obviously, the 2 former are used for the hole entry (1st surface) countersink, while the 2 latter are used at the bottom (2nd surface countersink).
But there are 2 different types of countersinks we may want to model at the entry (1st surface) of a hole : countersinks for clearing screw head in thru holes, and countersinks for thread entry in threaded holes. And of course, both have very different diameters.
Is there an additional set of columns that can be added to the .hol file, that is recognized by Creo 2, and that can provide different default values for thread countersink than for screw head countersinks?
Best regards,
Mathieu
