Interactive Laser Application for Fixinspect Modular Fixturing Systems News! When measuring sheet metal, gathering data on bolts and holes can be very time consuming. With Fixinspect measuring accessories this process can be considerably simplified and speeded up. Accurate data is determined by touching the hemispheres. The entire process can now be further simplified using a programmable three-colored laser projector and corresponding programming console. They show not only the mounting positions but also the type of Fixinspect accessory required as an outline on the sheet metal. After measuring, this method also assists operators in removing all measuring accessories. Quantity, position and shape of Fixinspect accessories can be changed at any time by updating an IGES file. The Laser projector technology can also be used e.g. to show the correct mounting points for support columns on sandwich plates, when measuring horizontally positioned /underbody floor parts. Likewise it is helpful when configuring seal on a vacuum grid plate corresponding to work piece geometry before machining. An important component to increasing process reliability.
