Modifying Machinable Hole Feature segments


SolidCAM enables you to display the Machinable Hole Feature Parameters dialog box using the Show Data button located on the Holes Recognition toolbar.

This dialog displays the parameters of the selected Machinable Hole feature or the selected Machinable Hole Feature segment.

The Holes parameters page is displayed when the Machinable Hole Feature is selected. This page displays the following parameters of the Machinable Hole feature:

    • Depth
    • Upper Plane
    • Origin X/Origin Y
    • Direction

The Depth, Upper Plane, Origin X/Y and Direction parameters cannot be changed.

When a segment is selected, the Machinable Hole Feature Parameters dialog box displays the specific parameters of the selected segment.

SolidCAM enables you to assign a new value (User value) to parameters of the Machinable Hole Feature segments.

When the new value is assigned to the parameter, SolidCAM modifies the segment according to the specific rules.
