Application

The Flexfix fixtures series are widely used in varies industries such  as electronics, aerospace,   automotive, plastic   or medicalcare.It can be introduced to aIIsizes and models of CMM and  VMM. They  are  the  tools   which make  your measuring process flexible,repeatable,and standardized.

Modular Fixturing for your CMM

FlexFix  series  CMM fixtures  system  is  designed   and  developed  by U NlMETRO  which means to   help CM M  users to improve the reproducibility and accuracy of the inspection process by providing quick and repeatable fixturing set-ups  for the components. FlexFix series CMM fixtures are modular and can be expanded with user·  s requirements to provide  a complete  fixturing solution for any part regardless of its size. shape or materiaI.

For multiple applications such as electronics. aerospace. automotive. plastic or medicalcare.the FlexFixseries can provide a fullsolution to the CMM fixturing requirements. The series  offers   fixture  plates  with  M8 threaded  fittings  in a wide choice of standard sizes. which are made of high  accurate  aluminum material and  with  complex  manufacturing process. to  ensure the accuracy and  reliability of the  system. Perfect fixturing solutions  can be assembled very quickly without any tools  to increase throughput and avoid delays in inspection.

Choosing your fixturing kit

CMM Fixtures

Components

The Flexfix series Fixturing components are designed to hold components firmly with the minimum necessary force and without  any special tools. all components are with different  function including  supporting. clamping or pressing. The reasonable design allows to avoid damage or distortion  on the measuring part.With these flexible components users are able to create different type of fixturing combination for varies of parts. Also it is easy to set up a clear probe path of 3D measuring.

CMM base plates

Multiple sizes of base plates are available for option for the Flexfix series CMM fixtures. Which allows  wide  range of  application for different size  of  CMM and  also  satisfying different size  of components fixturingrequirement.

A complex  manufacturing process is required  for the CMM fixtures base plates  which  includes   CNC machining, precision  grinding.. anodise coating, and laser marking.. to make the plates with   high accuracy,flatness and reliability.And except the standard sizes we also offer customized sizes and threads holes.

The fixture  plates  are offering an alphanumeric grid pattern  and each fixturing component has its  part  number  easily  visible. It makes the user set-up can be fully  defined  and documented by recording the  assembly  and  location of  each  of  the  fixturing components,so that the same set-up can be quickly and accurately reproduced for subsequent inspections.

VMM fixtures

The vision  measurement  machine  application is always  coming  with varies of different parts with different shapes or materials.Some are even without any effective reference plane to be correctly located on the work stage. Developing specific  fixtures for each component should  be with low efficiency and high cost. So we have developed the Flexfix series VMM fixtures kit and base plates,to help users saving time and cost but also be able  to  achieve  fast and reliable fixturing during the  VMM measuring process. The  Flexfix series helps  to  improve the    throughput, reproducibility and accuracy of the inspection process with  quick  and repeatable fixturingset-ups.

Components

All components are made by precision manufacturing process and with anodise coating. Each part is with laser marking coding, so all the combination  of the components can be repeatable for the subsequent inspections. Which helps to eliminate the variation of different parts or operators,and increasing the measuringaccuracy and repeatability.

 

Base plates

For VMM measuring needs contour measuring application under most circumstances,we create the VMM fixtures base plate with high transmittance and flatness acrylic material, which to ensure the straight light  path from the contour light, keeping  the  original measuring  accuracy  of  the machine.

MetalM4 screw threads are mounted inside the base plate, the components can be firmly fixed and highly increase the life cycle of the base plate.

Also an L type magnetic fast mountingcorner is offered,user only needs to put and measure, which largely increase the measuring efficiency.
