How can we influence the grouping of similar holes?
When we search for similar cylinders in the drilling cycle, the default tolerance is 0.01mm.
In our example, we have 2 holes of Ø10 and Ø10.02:
The search will therefore not find the second hole.
If these 2 holes need to be grouped together, simply increase a tolerance.
To do this, display the “Options” window in the machining document and double-click on “Analyzes” in the “CAM” folder:
Then, simply increase the “Diameter” value (to 0.02mm in our example).
The second hole will then be selected using the “Find geometry similar to the current one” function:
