Vision Fixturing

Vision Fixtures
The R&R Quick-Load Corner (QLC) vision fixture is a fast, repeatable way to fixture parts for inspection consistently each and every time, increasing productivity and accuracy. QLC’s will vary in size and shape depending on the vision machine they are made to fit. QLC’s and plates are made with dowel pins and magnets that snap together to repeatably position the plate into the corner of the QLC.

Made to Hold Virtually Anything-With the fixture plates multiple holes and various components, the QLC vision fixture kit has the versatility to hold anything you may need to inspect while using minimum contact or force on the part.

Vision Fixture Kits
Our comprehensive vision fixture kits are for holding steel, aluminum, plastic and other ferrous and nonferrous parts. Each kit includes an acrylic base plate with either M4 or 1/4-20 threaded holes and a complete kit of components.

More Options– Choose the thread and plate size that best fits your stage or fixturing application along with our small or medium component kit. Components and plates can also be purchased separately with more fixturing components to choose from than any other company.

Vision Fixture Plates
Choose from either an acrylic Multi-Window or Multi-Hole Vision plate, with an alpha-numeric labeled grid pattern to enable the user to set parts up the same way each and every time that part is inspected. Plates are designed to accommodate many parts at one time and come in different sizes to fit within your stage. An M4 thread size is recommended for parts that are 75mm x 75mm (3″ x 3″) or smaller.

Hold and View the Smallest of Parts– Our small fixturing components used in a tight circumference allow for complete viewing access of the part without covering up any critical features on the part whether you are checking the part with your touch probe or multi-sensor machine.

Interchangeable Vision Fixtures
The anodize aluminum frame which includes your choice of either modular or custom acrylic base plates are made to fit your specific vision machines, ideal for machines 400 x 400 or larger (allowing for the mounting of your probe rack and calibration artifacts, as needed).
Quickly Load and Unload-plates into the frame in a repeatable position each time. Ideal for multiple users or parts that will be inspected over and over again for easy and efficient turnkey fixturing applications.

Vision Custom Fixtures
Our experience with backlighting and touch probes enables us to design and build fixtures that will be correct first time. Let our years of experience and knowledge in the metrology field create a fixture for your specific needs. When it comes to accessing the part in the most efficient way, without over-fixturing the part, our expertise shows.
Customer focused and quality driven-Expect more from us. We are continuously changing to meet our customers’ needs and demands – enhancing their productivity and profitability.

CMM Fixturing

CMM Fixturing
To be competitive in today’s ever changing world, with innovation and new technology constantly evolving, companies need to inspect more and more parts with shorter lead times while still maintaining the highest quality
standards without spending a lot of money. The modular R&R Fixture is quick, easy to use, and flexible enough to hold all your different parts.

Decrease Inspection Cost – while improving productivity. The fixture will also help improve the accuracy of your part inspections…no more wasting time and money on traditional fixturing methods.

CMM Fixture Kits
Our CMM comprehensive fixture kits are for holding steel, aluminum, plastic and other
ferrous and nonferrous parts. Each kit includes a base plate with either 1/4-20, M4, M8 or M12
threaded holes and a complete kit of components.

More Options – Choose the thread and plate size that best fits your CMM or fixturing application along with our small, medium or large component kits. Components and plates can also be purchased separately with more fixturing components to choose from than any other company.

CMM Plates
Our base plates have been engineered out of cast aluminum with a hard coat anodize coating called Ni-Tuff™. With its Teflon makeup and extra penetration of the hard coat it has proven to be more durable and to resist scratches. Base plates can also be made of steel with a black oxide finish. Plates are available in sizes from 6″ x 6″ (150mm x 150mm) up to 60″ x 120″ (1500mm x 3000mm) in a single fixture plate.

Easy Installation – If needed mounting holes are included for attaching the R&R Fixture base plate to your CMM. A drawing will be provided from R&R showing the exact location of the fixture base plate on your specific CMM as well as the mounting hole positions.

CMM Fixturing Tables
No matter the shape, size or type of part, the R&R fixture XTension table offers the flexibility for fixturing a part with the use of any portable CMM, white light or laser system.

Rigid Construction – of the table provides a place to mount the portable measuring device and fixture parts on, at one low cost. The tables fixturing plate can also be ordered with a black anodize finish to minimize reflections from optical work surfaces and come in many sizes to fit all your needs.

CMM Xtensions
XTensions are simply an inexpensive way to fixture parts that are large or need to be held vertically on a CMM. They are aluminum extrusions that are used along with the R&R fixtures components for building a setup vertically or creating a support structure to fixture a part. Setup is simple with minimal tools needed to produce a rigid and accurate fixture with unrestricted probe paths.

Specifically Designed to Fit Your Application – Let us build a fixture or frame for holding your parts. Supply us with your part or CAD files and we will design and build a fixture so you’re ready to start programming as soon as you receive it.

CMM Custom Fixtures
When your application calls for something more specialized, we can provide you with custom fixtures. Our in-house engineering staff will design a fixture for you from concept to build.

Knowledge and Experience counts – Our experience with CMM probing systems enable us to design and build fixtures that will allow for probe clearances and accessing the part in the most efficient way without over-fixturing the part. We can design and build fixtures to hold a single part or multiple parts at one time within a quick time frame so there is very little down time.

Fixturing Components

We offer a wide variety of CMM, vision and multi-sensor machine fixturing components. All components are precision made to meet your application needs.
