Tip: Free Hole Standards Library

This is from the Tips & Techniques section of the VX CAD/CAM online help.

VX has predefined hundreds of standard hole attributes into a library called "Bundles.VX" stored in the "driver/resource" folder of your User Directory.

These are standard holes based on the "Machinery's Hand Book" and include thread and tolerance values. These values are stored to the 6th decimal place to meet the standard.

Pick the folder icon on the Hole Feature Options Form and use the File Browser to locate the "Bundles.VX" file (if it's not already selected) and then select a hole from the drop-down list. The options form will populate with the selected hole's attributes.
