Quick-swap Fixtures Speed Up Optical Comparator Inspections



Quick-Swap inspection fixtures for optical comparators

Phillips Precision, Inc. offers Inspection Arsenal fixture systems for optical comparators. Companies like Schick-Energizer are using Inspection Arsenal Loc-N-Load quick-swap fixture systems for faster optical comparator inspections. The Lean fixture concept speeds inspection on traditional CMMs and vision systems, gauge arms, laser trackers and now optical comparators. Manufacturers can standardize across a quality department with plates that are interchangeable across all inspection equipment.

New for comparator inspection is a simple bundled system consisting of a 6" docking rail, two 6" x 12" Loc-N-Load plates and a workholding kit to help hold most any part. Companies can purchase items individually or choose the preconfigured bundle. The small docking rail secures to the t-slot table while the magnetically interlocking plates quickly and accurately secure and release. By fixturing on quick-swap plates, operators can change parts in and out without building and breaking down set-ups. For high quantity part lots, plates can be dedicated and kept with the job box for fast, repeatable set-ups.

Inspection Arsenal offers the quick-swap fixture system made to fit optical comparators. Companies can standardize fixturing across all traditional CMMs and vision systems with the Inspection Arsenal full line of interlocking fixture plates and non-marring workholding.
