Fixturing

Anyone have any good resources for fixturing? Besides going all out for a design engineering degree.

  • Not really, you can find a way to place some sort of stop so that you dont have to run Manual Align. I have ran production quantity parts using just the chuck or the vice, never had to run manual align. Just orient the part accordingly and GO


    So as D-Train asked...if you want to set up 30 parts and hit go? And then 30 more and hit go? There is where the lot of gluing comes in. Hard to say that you could be faster with your glue and duct tape than a 30 position fixture...
