Hi All. 'Hole Series' is handy if you want holes in the piece parts, but that's the problem here; when you're drilling at assembly, you don't want to see the holes in the individual parts. I tried suppressing it at the part level, but then it doesn't show up in the assembly. There is...

Thanks for the replies. Here's the problem. Let's say I have a large plate and want to weld a small pad on either side,then drill a normal fit counterbored clearance hole for a #10 socket head cap screw through all three parts, using assembly cut. I have to go look up the hole drill size, the...

Sorry, I forgot - NX6. Thanks.

In real life and most (if not all) other cad systems, you can stick parts together in an assembly (eg. a weldment) and then drill ONE hole, ONCE, through all of them. Why can't we do this in NX? Having to promote or wave link the parts, then put separate holes in each of them, then type in the...

Under Type, pick Touch Align. Then, next to Orientation, pick Infer Center/Axis. Then it works just like before. You can also use Concentric and pick the edges of the holes, which essentially does both surface to surface and center to center. The only problem with this is that if you want to...
