Swift-fix has been developed by Hexagon Metrology, a world leading CMM manufacturer, who recognise the need for a fixturing system that allows maximum access to the part to be measured.
The Kinematic System
Swift-fix can be supplied with a Kinematic base plate. This plate is secured permanently in the measuring volume allowing easy changing of component fixtures.
Fixturing thats flexible.......
By virtue of the complexity of many of today’s manufactured components, the held part needs to be uncluttered and the holding & clamping has to be discreet, to allow the measurement probe room to obtain the maximum accessibility.
Flexibility is another major requirement, particularly where component size varies. Another unique feature of Swift-Fix is that it is a modular system which allows base plates to be linked together to suit larger components and ensure the hole pitch between plates is maintained.
Base plates are available in the following standard sizes
300 x 300mm, 400 x 400mm, 500 x 500mm & 600 x 600mm
Non standard sizes can be supplied to customers requirements
PC-DMIS Quick-fix
Quick-fixture is an exciting new development for users of PC-DMIS, the software offered on all new machines and upgrades from Hexagon Metrology. A new option built into the software allows the user to build a fixture around the CAD model of the part inside the PC-DMIS 3D environment.
