Modular Fixtures

Scope and process

Engineering workflow for modular fixtures at Dahegam, Gandhinagar, Gujarat, India: 3D CAD modeling of part workholding envelope → FEA clamping force and deflection analysis → CNC machining of hardened baseplates and locator nests → grinding of locating dowels and wear pads → laser CMM verification of critical datum points.

Materials we work with

Standard element set on a tooling plate, documented as a build sheet so the setup can be recreated. Body material is chosen for the duty — tool steel where wear or heat is the issue, aluminium where the fixture must be lifted by hand.

Tooling support

Locates on a gridded base plate through standard pins, blocks and clamps.

Choosing the right option

When requesting a proposal for modular fixtures, please provide component 3D CAD models (STEP/IGES), 2D part drawings indicating critical datums, machine table specifications (T-slot pitch, pallet size), and target cycle time. Quotes with 3D concept layouts are issued within 24 hours.

Quality checks and inspection

On a fixture the check that matters is element positions against the build sheet, and repeatability after a teardown and rebuild. Dimensions are verified on CMM against the fixture drawing before despatch.

Commissioning and handover

Handed over with a documented build sheet so the configuration can be recreated exactly after a teardown.

Export packing and lead time

Ships as an element set on its base plate with the build sheet included. HEMSUN is a DGFT IEC registered exporter (Government of India); commercial invoice, packing list and certificate of origin accompany international despatch.

Maintenance and spare parts

Standard elements are replaceable individually; keep the build sheet current when the setup changes.
