Hole feature suggestion

pavmed — Thu, 12 Oct 2023 09:20:20 GMT

This

i.e. thread clearance with countersink in one part with threaded/unthreaded in second.

Now it's possible with hole + chamfer only

You need to minimise and then maximise the Shape Settings.

There is a bunch of options for making your own holes. And planned threads. There is a trick to reverse and tighten the thread. But, you didn't ask that.

It's like 1:57 minutes and seconds. And, the boxes are already there.

Your example is not correct. Not how it is done in the real world.

There should be a clearance hole for the fastener (there are Standards for this) and threaded only mating part.

I know what you mean. What you're saying that you don't know how to use a calculator. I left a tiny sketch in there to measure and solve hydro quadratic equations.

It's still the same thing in the original file. Where changing the settings will sink the counterbore enough to bottom plate. Here are two images that required a close enough examination. Where the counter bore is just slightly larger to be a hole. And, another thing where the countersink is just close enough to the bottom plate. Because it's quadrilateral and close enough to ( ( 10 + ( 6.78 / 2 ) ) * 2 ) * 1 mm in Fusion 360. This can be done sin, cos, tan.

You can see in this screenshot. The threading profile is determined with profiles here it's 17.519 as an example.

stop talking to me. Can you even define a quadrilateral?

As a matter a fact. I'm 100% sure he asked for something like this anyway.

What he means is that to determine the clearance of a counter bore or counter sink hole in real world engineered and manufactured parts one needs to follow standards such as ISO, ANSI, DIN etc.

Your example and use of a quadrilateral is cute, but try to find a tool that you can drill a 17.519 hole with.

Manufacturing is the reason these above mentioned standards exist.

This is the way it is done in Autodesk Inventor Professional...

This is the way it is done in the real world by established standards (refer to the Machinery's Handbook)...

Pick a Standard...

Pick a fastener type...

Select Class of Fit... (for clearance hole)

Select Threaded and class of fit for tapped hole...

Select fastener if desired...

Notice clearance for fastener (Normal, Close or Loose)...

Engineering 101

Welcome to the real world of Fastener Standards.

Of course you can do this in Fusion 360 as two Hole features...

Thanks for answering, still it's not what I'm looking for.

I'm aware of counterbore hole type and that I can "drill" it through two bodies.

What I'm looking for is

1. Hole feature consists of two.

1. First hole part is all through first body and is built to thread clearance

2. Second hole part is either through or blind and is either threaded or unthreaded.

3. There's a countersink

I can do that using counterbored hole + chamfer now.

ps. if using OBS or other screen capture program try to switch from window to display capture - dialogs should be visible this way
