Ok I understand its locked in there but there is no clamping. Like there will always be a little play in the threads so I find this highly unlikely to get a rigid fastening

[sdbarn]

Its cool, but myself, I'd just bolt the work piece to another plate and anchor the plate.

That part looks like one of those things they assign you for homework in an intro to solidworks class

[blaisedalbertanson]

Hats off to whoever edited this and machines these parts

[mudfatherBULLSHiT]

This is so well edited! Thanks for showing it off!!

Do you have the same rigidity in your work holding as with other types of fixturing? We've got a magnet that we use where I'm at currently, was my first time using one. I'm pretty impressed with it. I've always been curious about fixturing and love watching these videos 👍

Just use a vice with dovetails and tab everything. I personally love to tab off most of my work.

So you would have to make a custom plate for every new part? And that is hoping it has equal spaced holes that are threaded ? Sounds good for production manufacturing, but costly for job shops.

How does it clamp? They're basically finger tight bolts. If you rotate the outer piece by half a turn, wouldn't it give you .5mm of space under the part?

[CaskStrength]

This system is a nightmare- its got hundreds of holes to clean/blast chips out of, and only holds parts that have a specific thread on a specific spacing. I see no reason any machine should use a full table of these. Might be nice as just a handful for dedicated fixturing plates on specific positions for some equipment, otherwise its got too many flaws

[tuckerperkins]

I could see machining something like an engine block with all it different sized bolts but only of they were pre drilled and tapped

[Tex]

How repeatable is a setup with the invertabolts? like if I take the plate off and put it back on how far can that corner shift?

[SuperSonicMaster]

It's fine if you have the play room to add parts for fastening I can see it being useful in production applications or specialty parts 👍

[nilesmarshall]

Have you not heard of using milling packing?

[AZdirtdog]

Comments are correct there is no clamping, the inner bolt needs to draw up to a section with no threads but a flange then it could pull the piece down

[Foxbodystang]

What’s better- his machine work or his camera skills. 👍🏻👍🏻 !

[Shoorit]

Man, some people really don’t like the fact you used these. 😂 there are very complicated parts on aircraft and these come in extremely useful.

[YungSteambuns]

I've honestly never seen that bolt before, that is genius if you ever need that for an application

[lucidcreationsz]

You have two threads pulling on each other, and as he explained in a previous video the spring is held in by a spring that probably helps tensioning, still opposing threads pull on each other the same way you can’t pull a screw out of a thread

[mobilePCreviews]

My question was do you design the part to have the threads there or something?
