Is there no the 'Subtract' function in Editfeko?

Hi. I'm Taeho.

I want to make holes of geometry but the number of holes is about 6000. I cannot do make that one by one. Therefore I used Editfeko for using Matlab.

However,  I have a problem when I was using Editfeko. There is no the 'Subtract' function in Editfeko.

I can make the geometry and I can make 6000 cylinders for making holes. But, I can not subtract cylinders from geometry.

As I know, before there was cadfeko, there is  editfeko. Therefore I think the 'subtract function'  somewhere in editfeko.

Is it me not to be able to find or is there no the 'subtract function' in editfeko?

 

please help me.

 

* I already tried to do the 'sweep function' in Cadfeko. but my cylinders' position is not linear. it follows parabolic shape.  ( ex) rho = 4F*(F-z) ) ... so I cannot do that by using Cadfeko.

    You will need to use the PH card, plate with hole.

    Alternately in CADFEKO you can script record creating a cylinder and plate and the subtract operation. Then modify the recording and put it in a FOR loop to create all 6000. Maybe first try with say 50-100 cylinders or so, to test.
