Rectangular pattern not showing in dxf-file

Dear all, 

 

I created a 10x10 hole rectangular pattern, based on 1 "reference hole" which I then multiplied in both x and y axis.

 

In Fusion everything looks great. However, if I import it to .dxf and open in Estlcam, only the reference hole shows up.

 

Any ideas how to solve that?

 

Many thanks!

Frank

hi,

Holes are solid features.
If you have created a hole from a circle, there is only one circle in the sketch that is saved as DXF.
If the hole is created with the hole function nothing will appear in the sketch.
For both cases, the body with the hole pattern would have to be projected into a new sketch, which is then exported.

P for Project.

Attach your *.f3d file here if you can't figure it out.

Thanks for the offer, please find the f3d file attached

 

Actually I tried to project myself. However, I did not understand how to project "laterally" (in the same surface).

 

If you could share a good YouTube link for that, that would be awesome.

 

Thanks a lot for your help!
