Hi all,
I have a "nice to have" requirement from my engineering staff that I would like to investigate.
When placing threaded holes with the hole function in Creo the default values for thread depth and drill depth is not according to our company standard.
I'm finding it hard to get the proper information on how to change this, if its even possible. I did find an article(CS99906) on PTC Support that states:
"The values, such as DRILL_DEPTH and THREAD_DEPTH, that are entered manually have no default settings and are not user controllable; they are preset according to the existing geometry size and previously entered values. And also some predefined rules such as Thread Depth = Drill Depth/Depth Ratio."
So, my question is, can you controll the deafult values for drill depth and thread depth.
For example if I add a M8 hole, I would like it to be:
DRILL_DEPTH 16
THREAD_DEPTH 12
(mm)
