More info...
If you need something else then just holes, then just make a third panel with some info of what you need.
Countersinks
Make two holes. One hole indicates the through-hole, another hole around this hole indicates the outside of the countersink. Example: For an M3 Countersink make a 3.2mm circle and a 6mm circle.
Threads
Make a hole for the thread. For an M3 mm hole draw a 2.46mm circle.
Then add another circle which is not fully closed to indicate that it's a thread. (and not a countersink).
Just write "M3" next to the thread.
Pocket cuttings
If you need a pocket-cutting (a cutting that does not go completely through the panel) then just write the pocket depth next to the pocket... like.. "2mm pocket from the front".
If you need the pocket from the rearside just write "2mm pocket at the rearside".
Here you can download the most commonly used XLR cutouts as dxf file.
Two of the most used XLR connectors:
Neutrik D-Type
-
Robust because of the metal case
-
Inside ist still made out of plastic
-
Connector is much more expensive
-
You need nuts to fix them
-
It takes longer to assemble these
-
they need more space
Neutrik MAAH/FAAH
-
easier to assemble, just two screws
-
pcb connections
-
he connectors require less space and thus achieve a higher packing density
-
​cheaper then Neutrik D series
-
no metal casing
We offer these xlrs including with black screws in the male version and the female version.
And if you want to solder wires directly to the xlrs you can use our small xlr pcbs. ​​​
