Automated bolt making
This macro enables you to choose the thread type you desire, as well as the head of the bolt and the bolt length, and then produces it. You can make any type of a bolt easy and effective.
Additional details
Making metric threads
This macro specializes in creating bolts and the accompanying video demonstrates the production of a metric threaded bolt. The macro allows you to customize various aspects such as the dimensions of the bolt, including the head size, bolt length, thread length, type, and more.
Bolt created is M10-1.5×30
Making trapezodial rounded thread
Next video demonstrates the production of a trapezodial rounded thread bolt. The macro allows you to customize various aspects such as the dimensions of the bolt, including the head size, bolt length, thread length, type, and more.
Bolt created is Tr10x1.5×30
Making BSPP threads
Next video demonstrates the production of a BSPP thread bolt. The macro allows you to customize various aspects such as the dimensions of the bolt, including the head size, bolt length, thread length, type, and more.

Making tehnical documentation
An exciting possibility for enhancing the capabilities of this automation macro is the addition of a technical documentation feature. With this feature, the program would generate all the necessary documentation required for the production of bolts, including various views and even the creation of a comprehensive Bill of Materials (BOM). Furthermore, the program could seamlessly integrate with Excel, automatically distributing the BOM and other technical documentation. This addition would significantly streamline the bolt production process, saving valuable time and resources while ensuring accuracy and consistency throughout the manufacturing process.
Making models of all standard bolts
It’s possible to create 3D models of standard bolts by utilizing a batching process. The program would extract standard dimensions from Excel and proceed to create and save each bolt one by one. Alternatively, if you only require certain bolts with specific specifications, you can input the required information through a simple form. This feature would significantly streamline the modeling process, saving valuable time and effort.
