SolidWorks: Dimensioning a Hole on a Cone Face

Out of category
21

So from the 3D view, click on the surface of the hole, then on "Normal to" which seems to be possible for my part perpendicular to my hole. 

From there I create a new view that I import into the MEP.

Well, I still have the same problem, impossible to rate the hole :-(

As for the auxiliary view, it uses a reference edge. What do I use in the case of my cone?

Yes it's weird, so you have to create a plan or use the plan that allowed you to make this hole, here is @+ good luck.

Well if not, send me your piece I'll make it for you again lol.

Otherwise you go through a removal per revolution by putting all the necessary dimensions, and that's it, because I think that by the drilling assistant you didn't add a dimension...

I just tried it with the drilling wizard it works as long as you add the rating ...

So I tried adding a plan and making the hole by removal, no better, impossible to size the hole on the cone. No problem with the other odds.

Here is an example of a part that corresponds to my problem. If you have an idea, I'm interested :-)

Thanks again for your help.

And the associated MEP...

Hello

Using the object dimension function of the model it works as I had proposed in one of my previous posts. Just activate the Ø dimension function as in my screen printout. See PJ

Hello Franck,

Here is the drawing that I think answers your problem

For the auxiliary view, select the edge

Rotate the view. 30° for the cone I drew

  Hello ac cobra 427,

I'm starting to understand where my problem came from.

Indeed, it works as you indicated now that I have added a plan and drilled from this plane.

But previously, I had used the drilling wizard by positioning my hole using a 3D sketch as made in the attached file. And in this case, it is impossible to rate the hole in the MEP.

Thank you for your help!

Hello Yannick,

Thank you so much for the illustration, it took that for me to understand the auxiliary views (sorry :-))

I just managed to dimension with an auxiliary view as you indicate. 

Which seems to be the only solution that works if I use the Drill Wizard & 3D Sketch to position the hole on the cone face.

Thank you!

-Franck.
