[Do...] Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 Hi all, I've got a part with several slots that we are checking. Each slot also as a 90 degree countersink and the customer is asking for the length and width of the countersink slot as well. How would I go about measuring this? I've used the cone feature before for regular countersinks, never a slot. I've attached a picture to show what I'm working with on the CADCS slot.png Link to comment https://qualityforum.zeiss.com/topic/15510-countersink-of-a-slot/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Cl...] Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 You could intersect and shell the two cones with the top plane for two circles Then intersect the two angled planes with the top plane for two lines. Now you have the constructed features needed to get length and width.

[Do...] Posted June 12, 2020 Author Share Posted June 12, 2020 Clarke, Thank you for the advice! The angled surface to top plane worked great, however intersecting and shelling the cones will only give me the cone centers, not a point at the outer edge of the counter sink. Any ideas on how I could get that to generate? Link to comment https://qualityforum.zeiss.com/topic/15510-countersink-of-a-slot/#findComment-84020 Share on other sites More sharing options...

[Do...] Posted June 12, 2020 Author Share Posted June 12, 2020 Shabu, When i check shell under my intersection, it still only generates me a point at the center of my cone, not at the edge of the csink Link to comment https://qualityforum.zeiss.com/topic/15510-countersink-of-a-slot/#findComment-84024 Share on other sites More sharing options...
