Simple hole feature with Blind as the extension type in CATIA V5: Hole Feature is used to create a hole on the surface of a structure or a component so that the bolt is tightened into it in order to increase the strength and reduce the stress concentration. They are different types of holes.1.Simple Hole 2.Counter board 3.counter sunk 4.Tapered 5.counter drilled. With Respects To the structure, the type of hole is defined.In this article,I am going to explain you about the use of Simple hole feature with Blind as the extension type in CATIA V5 and is as follows.
