Fixtures
A fixture can be anything from a simple drilling template to an advanced welding fixture with sophisticated electronics, to meet the zero defect requirements of the automotive industry. In automated plants, high demands are placed on the positioning of parts. This often means using pneumatic functions for clamping and guidance. An effective way to reduce the sources of error and streamline production is to use such intelligent fixtures.
The 3D systems allow you and us to study and jointly discuss in detail, already at the project stage, how the fixture will look, where the details are aligned and where it is appropriate to place clamps or cylinders. These discussions can take place in a meeting or remotely via an online meeting or over the phone. Together we can turn both the challenge and the solution around in our simulation programs. By adding models of the fixtures to our programs, we can test the accessibility of the robot. For example, for robotic welding fixtures, we can simulate gun angles, etc.
