Brilliant MasterMind Fixturing Techniques Compilation

Fixturing is everything in the machining industry. Workholdings and alike contribute so much to the success of a machine operation. If the fixture isn't rigid you risk out of tolerance parts. Enjoy this compilation of many fixtures and workholdings we've done in our shop. Machines we've made these fixtures for include ONA AV35 and DN Solution's DVF 5000.

I saw several things.. 1st was how well organized you keep the components for your fixtures.It’s a huge time save knowing where everything can be found.. Doesn’t matter if you find tool paths to save you a minutes if it takes hours longer to find hardware and tools.A clean and organized shop is a sign of professionalism.A dirty, unorganized shop says you should keep your resume up to date..

Them drums gets the blood pumping.... ❤

I wouldn't call myself "brilliant Mind" for using a good fixture systems.

[euclid]

This is an expensive hell of fixtures! Having such sponsors is crucial.

[ohNONOky]

This is what all the shops I've worked in don't seem to understand, your fixtures need fixtures

[BungusUmungus]

Just finished a test fixture for the MiteeBite XYZ Xpansion pins and I am totally impressed with how well just one of those things holds a part.

[ericsandberg]

I'd be curious to know what you guys specify for tolerances of fit when you make those fixtures....what is the tolerance on the pin fit to the mating hole, and what tolerance do you have to hit in the X-Y axis between the do you match drill and ream.

This video extended the duration of my morning wood.

[jeremysnead]

It looks, fun when you know how to get the job done right.

[steinarne]

We need a fixturing masterclass for laithes!

[GrumpyMachinist]

I love fixturing. It's the easiest way to idiot proof an operation.

[symey]

How do you guys store and organise your fixtures?

[nofunallowed]

What kind of fixturing did you show for the WEDM? A new guy at our company could REALLY use modern fixturing equipment since he's got free reigns from his old-timer supervisor.

[rushitrivedi]

Can you make a video explaining about repetability and backlash in cnc machine.

[daveyt]

Nice to see the latest and best stuff. All we have is old junk. 😕

[robertacevedo]

We need sponsors too.any one can do that

[lumpygasinavacuum]

I will try again. Someone here willing to attempt to model how on a sphere a sextant can be used to triangulate? How on a sphere can a person use SOH CAH TOA you need a 90 degree angle to do that. The lights in the sky "stars or sun" are parallel with the surface of the flat ocean.

Cool. A longer video. I guess you make the shorts for the young girls who are used to tiktock
