(OP)
Can solid edge produce acme threads?

RE: ACME THREADS

I'm not sure if it's available in the hole command (I'm assuming you've already looked), but I would suppose one way of doing it would be to use the Worm Gear Designer... or a helical cutout with a 29 degree slope, patterned in a circle.

Hope this helps,

Martin
