Bores
Bore overview
A bore feature is turning feature formed by enlarging an existing hole using a rigid single-point cutting tool. It consists of one or more faces defining an internal cylindrical surface, optionally with a bottom.
Precision is determined by the rigidity of the spindle and the boring tool. Horizontal boring ensures accurate internal geometry with the workpiece moving parallel to the tool's axis.
Bore parameters
A bore has the following basic parameters:
- Depth.
- Radius.
How MTK recognizes bores
MTK automatically recognizes bores in B-Rep CAD models and extracts their manufacturing-relevant parameters. The recognized feature data can be used for automated quoting, DFM analysis, and manufacturing workflows.
Documentation and API reference
Detailed API reference for bore feature recognition is provided in the MTK documentation, including feature classes and integration details.
