Checking Fixtures

To be used as a correct scale, three important characteristics are required & construction of its specific area is pre-decided.

Shape of scale to be correct

• The area named gauge that represents the actual shape of part to be checked is precisely machined. Moreover, it is confirmed with a high precision measuring machine.

Shape of scale must not change

• Base that supports the gauge is made of strong construction.

Positioning between scale & checking item must not change

• To fix checking item, precisely made pin or clamps are provided.

Producing CMM inspection reports to validate tooling in many cases is acceptable, however for quick and easy component validation a checking fixture is often a preferred choice. Checking fixtures can be made from a wide range of materials and designed to suit specific or general controlling features i.e. form, E.O.P., hole dias. and positional tolerances.
