Summary


Details

Solid Edge fails to apply threads on a cylinder of non standard diameter. Customer is facing issue to apply thread on Non-Standard Diameter.

Solution

Solid Edge Software working as intended. The cylindrical face diameter must match a value listed in the hole database.

Available thread sizes (ordered environment):

Because you use the Thread command to add thread information to an existing cylindrical face, the cylindrical face diameter must match a value listed in the hole database.

For external threads, the cylinder diameter (1) must match a value in the nominal diameter column in the hole database. For internal threads, the cylinder diameter (2) must match a tap drill value in the hole database.


For example, to add a Rd 24 x 1/8 metric straight pipe thread to an external cylinder, the cylinder diameter must be exactly 24 millimeters, which matches the outside pipe diameter for this thread.

To add the Rd 24 x 1/8 metric straight pipe thread to an internal cylinder, the cylinder diameter must be exactly 21.142 millimeters, which is the internal minor diameter for this thread in the hole database.

Note:

In ordered, if the cylindrical face diameter does not match a value in the hole database, the Thread Type list on the Thread command bar will be blank and a warning message is displayed when you click the Finish button.

In synchronous, if the cylindrical face diameter does not match a value in the hole database, the closest thread size in the list is selected.
