countersunk holes

shangwu
shangwu over 14 years ago

We are designing a PCB with some 100-degree countersink holes (plated).  Advanced PCB advertises that they can do instant quote on the web www.4pcb.com/.../Capabilities - Final -09-28-2010 Final.pdf

Is there such feature in PCB Editor v16.3 that we can specify the countersink holes?  How do we create such padstacks?

Thanks.

    Hi,

    I don't think, is there any option to create countersink in the Allegro tool, (If anybody knows, please share it.)

    I normally mention the countersink details in the drill chart for the starting drill diameter & the Fabricators are able to do it correctly.

    We use it for Aluminium metal PCBs in the Mounting holes to get a better contact with screws (Ground_signal Bonding).

    Any other purpose?

    Regards,

    rinj
