Hole Table

Hello guys how you doing


I just wanted to ask how can you create a hole table that contains the threaded hole call outs. I have a print with many threaded holes and it looks very conjested with all the dimensions on it.


Thanks for your help
 
Hi PhilC,


In Pro/E you can create hole tables. But these hole tables will only read the holes. They do not read threaded holes. Hence the option available to you is to create a toolkit program for this.


This is the only option which I am aware of. Sorry.

I think what you are trying to do can be accomplished by the use of a parameter.You would need tocreate aparameter and then create a table on the drawing with repeat regions. The columns on the drawing table would then have the parameter names entered in from the keyboard. This table would update automatically if the thread parameter changed.
