Hole; Normal to Face
Hole; Normal to Face
(OP)
I have a created a point pattern on a surface, and I am adding holes at these evenly spaced points using the 'Hole' command. The hole direction I wish to be normal to the face at each hole center. Where a point falls in a concave area of the surface, the hole stops shy from breaking all the way out (makes sense as the edge of the hole is some small distance below the surface). What is your opinion on the best way to get these holes to break thru (or start further away?) using NX6?
Thanks for your time,

To an Engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

Note that we have added an option to address this situation in NX 7.5.

Good to know NX 7.5 has a new option to fix it. Nice!
