Fixture Design and Manufacturing

Fixturing is a critical part of the inspection process, and a robust design is essential to ensure accuracy and consistency. Poor fixturing can result in parts failing to meet specification, wasted time, and increased costs.

At ARC Metrology, we provide a complete turn-key solution that covers everything from the initial design concept through to installation. This includes not only the design, manufacture, and installation of inspection fixtures, but also the creation and validation of the CMM programs that run with them. That means when your solution arrives, it’s fully integrated and ready to use.

Why our fixtures make a difference

• Reduced set-up time – fixtures are designed for quick and easy loading

• Secure and stable support – ensuring reliable and repeatable measurements

• Full access for measurement – no compromise on accuracy or coverage

• Improved repeatability – consistent results every time

Using the right fixture on a CMM can dramatically increase throughput. Multiple parts can be loaded at once, allowing the CMM to run unattended while your team focuses on other tasks. For even greater flexibility, we can mount fixtures on their own base plates. This allows products to be swapped quickly, minimising downtime between measurement runs.

Alongside bespoke fixtures, we also offer universal adjustable fixtures for round parts. These versatile solutions provide a cost-effective way to securely hold cylindrical and circular components without needing a dedicated fixture for each part.
