    Fixture Plates

    Lay the foundation for your fixturing setup. These plates have a grid with evenly spaced threaded holes to install angle brackets and other fixturing components. They’re often used to help secure workpieces for measuring and inspecting. Just like a battleship gameboard, the edges are labeled with letters and numbers, making it easy to identify holes. While these lightweight plates aren’t for machining, you can use them for light fabrication jobs, such as laser marking. All can be attached to your table with clamps (not included), making them easy to remove and swap.

    Fixturing for Parts Inspection

    Image of ProductInUse. Front orientation. Coordinate Measuring Machine Plates and Fixtures. Fixturing for Parts Inspection.
    From towers and brackets to standoffs and supports, these components are the building blocks for your custom fixturing setup. They elevate parts so you can access a variety of angles for measuring and inspecting while protecting your measuring device from hitting the inspection table. You’ll often see them used with coordinate measuring machines (CMMs). They’re not for use in machining applications.
    Cone Supports

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Coordinate Measuring Machine Plates and Fixtures. Fixturing for Parts Inspection, Cone Supports.
    Cone supports have a round pointed tip to minimize contact with your workpiece, so they’re often used to prop up delicate parts. They’re also useful for parts with irregular surfaces that slide off larger supports. Made of plastic, they’re nonmarring.

They’re also useful for parts with irregular surfaces that slide off larger supports. Made of plastic, they’re nonmarring. Any-angle cone supports have an arm that extends, retracts, and rotates 360°.

    Clamps for Parts Inspection

    Image of ProductInUse. Front orientation. Coordinate Measuring Machine Plates and Fixtures. Clamps for Parts Inspection.
    With a light yet sturdy hold, these clamps help you keep workpieces in place hands-free for measuring and inspecting. Thread them right into your fixturing surface, whether it’s a plate, tower, or table. Because they apply less pressure than machining clamps, they won’t distort your parts, so you can take accurate measurements. While these clamps aren’t sturdy enough for use in machining, you can still use them for light fabrication work, such as laser engraving.
    Hold-Down Clamps
    Image of Product. Front orientation. Coordinate Measuring Machine Plates and Fixtures. Clamps for Parts Inspection, Squeeze Tabs.

    Squeeze

    Tabs

    Hold-down clamps secure parts from the top.
    Squeeze Tabs—Clamps with squeeze tabs on the back are best for supporting delicate parts. They have the lightest touch of any clamps we offer, because the tension is held in the tabs rather than the clamp itself. Press the tabs together like a clothespin and rotate the clamp where you need it.

    Side Clamps
    Image of Product. Front orientation. Coordinate Measuring Machine Plates and Fixtures. Clamps for Parts Inspection, Side Clamps.
    Side clamps don’t block access to the top of your workpiece like hold-down clamps. They push one side of your workpiece against another barrier, such as a standoff, support, or corner plate. Made of durable yet flexible plastic, the outer edge of the clamp slightly contracts when you pull the circular trigger—like drawing a bow.

    Workstation Shown Raised

    Support large robot arms and heavy payloads—these workstations can handle up to 1,800 pounds. With capacity to spare, add all the components and accessories you need for today’s job and tomorrow’s upgrades.
    Optimize these workstations to fit your setup. To get them at the height you need, you can raise and lower the legs in 1" increments. They have swivel casters too, so you can steer them into the right spot. Then, extend the casters’ leveling pad to keep the workstation in place and compensate for uneven floors. Store your robot controller, teach pendant, and other accessories on the shelf below to keep them accessible but out of the way.
    These workstations are compatible with many common robot arms—use the mounting holes on top and included fasteners to attach them. When used with large arms, such as the FANUC CRX-25iA or 30iA, these workstations must be anchored for stability and safety.

    All Components Sold Separately

    Create a portable home base for your robot, controller, and workpieces. These workstations keep your setup organized with your robot mounted on top and your controller tucked away on the shelf below. They’re often used next to CNC machines, so your robot can load and unload parts. Expand your work surface, add storage, and customize these workstations with add-ons that keep you ready for whatever is next.
    These workstations have swivel casters with brakes, so you can roll them between jobs across your facility and lock them in place. Leveling feet keep these workstations flat even when the floor isn’t.
    The top of these workstations has mounting holes that work with common robot arms—attach your arm with fasteners (not included). They also come with a mount for your controller. To neatly route cords from controller to arm, there’s a cutout on the top.

    Keep workpieces in position so your robot arm can grab them. You can arrange pegs (sold separately) to hold a variety of differently shaped workpieces. Made of stainless steel, these plates stand up to corrosion, and handle cutouts make them easy to pick up.
    For heavy workpieces, use the included rest pads between the plate and platform to keep the plate from bowing. Each pad needs a peg to hold it in place.

    Create custom layouts on fixture plates to hold your workpieces. To keep the pegs secure on the plate, they come with a screw. Push the screw through the backside of the fixture plate hole, then thread the peg on from the front of the plate. Stack these pegs to support taller parts. You’ll need a screw long enough to secure all the pegs in the stack.
