Validate Holes 
Access: Open this function from one of the following locations:
-
Select Mold Design > Cooling > Validate Holes from the menu bar.
-
Select Cooling > Validate Holes > Validate Holes from the Mold Design Guide Toolbar.
Analyze holes, group them by type and attach them to valid hole sequences. Different hole libraries may be applied for the analysis.
The analysis result is displayed in the Validate Holes Pane.
If analysis data already exists, the Validate Holes Pane is automatically displayed, showing the results of the analysis.
If analysis data does not exist, the Validate Holes function is opened. Set the parameters and click Start Analysis; the Validate Holes Pane is displayed, showing the results of the analysis.
This function enables holes to be grouped in the CAD environment in a similar way to that performed in the NC Automated Drill environment.
Mold makers commonly receive mold design jobs from sub-contractors or receive maintenance jobs on molds they did not design. In these cases, some of the holes may not follow the shop floor standards and require mold makers to change them to fit their drilling standards. The Validate Holes function enables the mold maker to quickly and easily analyse the holes used in the design and to ensure all of them adhere to the standards.
