Hole Series Issues SW2004 SP2.1
Hole Series Issues SW2004 SP2.1
(OP)
Hi all,
Can some one please help me? I'm having a 'challenge' with using 'Hole Series' within my assembly.
The assembly is made up of predominantly 'Sheet Metal' parts of 1.2mm thick.
I'm trying to create a linked set of punched holes that will line up perfectly upon assembly through the 3 adjacent parts. The first hole is to be 9.1 the second 6.5 and the last 6.1.
With each hole set 'Up to Next' for some reason the hole is not migrating to the last part of the 3. However if I change to through all the last part still does not show a hole yet holes appear in other parts further out along the hole axis projection. This has really got me baffled and through and I need an answer please!
Many thank's

It sounds like the parts are having the holes punched in them individually. In which case you would do better placing the holes "In-context" at the model assy.
Make an assy of the parts ... without the holes ... & while in the assy, edit the first part & add the first hole, then update the part. Then edit each of the other parts in turn, & add a hole postioned from the first one.

I hide all the parts that could get cut by the Hole Wizard "Hole series" and then I use "through all" for all three parts listed in the Hole series wizard.

I'm familiar with the process and know how to hide parts I do not wish to include when using the Hole Wizard in Assembly mode via the 'Hole Series' option.
My question is why the a hole is NOT being produced in the THIRD part of the series. The holes are being produced in both of the other parts (first and middle) but not in the third for some obscure reason. Is this a bug?
As far as I know all three parts are coincident.
Still Baffled!

Secondly, sorry, I don't know why the 3rd plate hole is not being produced.
What are you using?
