Minimize Depth

Ensure minimum drill travel in empty cavity space. 
You can also reduce the drill depth to a minimum and remove any extra drilling created during the layout process.

1.     MDTools 965 > Minimize Depth

The Minimize Drill Depth dialog box displays.

The All Cavities option is selected by default.

2.     Click the Cavities selection button and select the required cavities, if you do not want to minimize the depth of all the cavities.

3.     Enter the minimum break tolerance.

4.     Click OK.

MDTools^® updates the drill depth of all the selected cavities to the minimum specified.

Note:

·       If two cavities connecting another cavity intersect inside the empty cavity space, then MDTools will not be able to minimize the drill depth of connecting cavities. In this case, you need to remove all such intersections inside the block, prior to running this command to get the best result.

·       If Energy Efficient Connection option is enabled in MDTools Options, then program will use the depth required for energy efficient connection at bends.
