Dialog Field (Keyword) | Type | Label | Description |
---|---|---|---|
Face (SEL_FACE) | Specifies the face for the drilling operation. Clicking a face automatically derives values for CenterPt and Axis Dir (providing you have not deactivated automatic parameter acquisition). | ||
Center Point (CEN_PNT) | 3D Position | Specifies the center point for the drilling operation. If the starting face is deleted later by other machining operations, the center point may be left hanging in space. If you click Face and click a point on a face, the center point is derived from this point (providing you have not deactivated automatic parameter acquisition). | |
Axis (AXIS) | 3D Axis (Direction + Position + Up-Direction) | Specifies the axis for the machined hole. If the starting face is deleted later by other machining operations, the center point may be left hanging in space. If you click Face and click a point on a face, the axis is derived normal to this point (providing you have not deactivated automatic parameter acquisition). | |
Hole Depth (HOLE_DEPTH) | Length | T2 | Specifies the drilled depth of the hole. |
Sink Depth (SINK_DEPTH) | Toleranced Length | T1 | Specifies the depth of the counterbore. If you have added a tolerance to this parameter through the Creo Elements/Direct Annotation 3D module or by direct specification within the dialog, it is written into the output file to be transferred to the receiving CAM system (in either ISO or values). |
Hole Diameter (HOLE_DIA) | Toleranced Length | D2 | Specifies the diameter of the hole to be drilled. If you have added a tolerance to this parameter through the Creo Elements/Direct Annotation 3D module or by direct specification within the dialog, it is written into the output file to be transferred to the receiving CAM system (in either ISO or values). |
Sink Diameter (SINK_DIA) | Toleranced Length | D1 | Specifies the diameter of the counterbore to be drilled. If you have added a tolerance to this parameter through the Creo Elements/Direct Annotation 3D module or by direct specification within the dialog, it is written into the output file to be transferred to the receiving CAM system (in either ISO or values). |
Chamfer Depth (CHAMFER_DEPTH) | Length | T3 | The depth of the chamfer measured in direction of the axis. |
Front Chamfer Depth (FRONT_CHAMFER_DEPTH) | Length | T4 | The depth of the chamfer measured in direction of the axis. |
Front Chamfer Angle (FRONT_CHAMFER_ANGLE) | Angle | The tool tip angle of the sink tool. | |
Back Chamfer Depth (BACK_CHAMFER_DEPTH) | Length | T5 | The depth of the chamfer (on the backside) measured in direction of the axis. |
Back Chamfer Angle (BACK_CHAMFER_ANGLE) | Angle | The tool tip angle of the sink tool. | |
Sink Bottom Quality (SINK_BOTTOM_SF_QUAL) | Surface quality specification for the bottom surface of the counterbore. | ||
Sink Side Quality (SINK_SIDE_SF_QUAL) | Surface quality specification for the side surface of the counterbore. | ||
Hole Side Quality (HOLE_SIDE_SF_QUAL) | Surface quality specification for the side surface of the hole. | ||
Name (NAME) | String | Specifies the name of the new feature. In case of modify this name is fixed, to modify the name of a feature please use rename. | |
Flag DP (FLAG_DP) | The docuplane which should own the flag text. If you switch on the variable for the first time within a dialog, the computed defaults will be activated. If you decide not to use the docuplane for the flag text but want to get a free flag text, simply switch off the variable. You can reactivate your last value (within the same dialog box) later by switching it on again | ||
Dia DP (DIA_DP) | The docuplane which should own the diameter related dimensions. If you switch on the variable for the first time within a dialog, the computed defaults will be activated. If you decide not to use the docuplane for the dimensions but want to get a free dimensions, simply switch off the variable. You can reactivate your last value (within the same dialog box) later by switching it on again | ||
Depth DP (DEPTH_DP) | The docuplane which should own the depth related dimensions. If you switch on the variable for the first time within a dialog, the computed defaults will be activated. If you decide not to use the docuplane for the dimensions but want to get a free dimensions, simply switch off the variable. You can reactivate your last value (within the same dialog box) later by switching it on again | ||
SiDeSfty (SINK_DEPTH_SAFETY_ZONE_THICKNESS) | Length | The thickness of the depth related safety zone (i.e. the thickness of the "washer" underneath the counterbore). If you decide not to use the safety zone, simply switch off the variable. You can reactivate your last value (within the same dialog box) later by switching it on again. | |
SiDiSfty (SINK_DIA_SAFETY_ZONE_THICKNESS) | Length | The thickness of the diameter related safety zone (i.e. the wall thickness of the "pipe" around the counterbore) This value will be used for the front chamfer as well. If you decide not to use the safety zone, simply switch off the variable. You can reactivate your last value (within the same dialog box) later by switching it on again. | |
HoDiSfty (HOLE_DIA_SAFETY_ZONE_THICKNESS) | Length | The thickness of the diameter related safety zone (i.e. the wall thickness of the "pipe" around the hole) This value will be used for the back chamfer as well. If you decide not to use the safety zone, simply switch off the variable. You can reactivate your last value (within the same dialog box) later by switching it on again. |

Show/Hide Image (IMAGE_SHOWN) | Shows/hides the graphical representation of the machined hole. |
Show/Hide Tolerance & Quality (TOLERANCE_AND_QUALITY) | Shows/hides additional tolerance-related input fields. |
Next (NEXT) | Completes the current operation and prompts you for the next location (create, copy) or feature (modify) without closing the menu. |
