Sheet Metal Fixtures
Sheet Metal Fixtures — Precision Workholding, Locating Repeatability & CNC Clamping Architecture
HEMSUN ENGG. INDUSTRIES designs and manufactures custom sheet metal fixtures in Dahegam, Gandhinagar, Gujarat, India for high-precision CNC machining, robotic welding, and automated assembly operations. Built from vacuum-hardened AISI D2 and EN-31 tool steel with sub-10 micron locating repeatability, integrated hydraulic/pneumatic clamping, and rigid anti-vibration bolsters for domestic manufacturers and global export clients.
Applications
- Locates and clamps the part on the machine table so the cut lands where the program expects it.
- Locates on machined datum faces and bores; clamping is placed clear of the tool path.
- Built to your drawing and the machine envelope it will run on.
Scope and process
Engineering workflow for sheet metal 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
Distributed clamping with broad, soft-faced pads that hold a thin panel without denting or drawing it.
Tooling support
Locates on machined datum faces and bores; clamping is placed clear of the tool path.
Choosing the right option
When requesting a proposal for sheet metal 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 locating repeatability after reload, and clamp positions checked against the tool path. Dimensions are verified on CMM against the fixture drawing before despatch.
Commissioning and handover
Proved by clamping and machining a panel, then checking it has not been pulled out of shape by the clamping itself.
Export packing and lead time
Ships assembled with locating elements fitted and clamp positions set. 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
Clamp pads mark thin panels as they wear. Panel marking is usually the first sign the pads need replacing.
