Thanks for this series. I am designing my own fixture as a mechanical engineering student, and this gave me some great ideas.

I like that the threads for part-clamping are on studs. No chewing out of aluminium fixture over time.

nice fixture! also seems like that he can take one of the blocks from op1 of the pallet off to machine 6 op1 parts and 6 op2 parts at the same time, if there is the need for it.

That's my preferred method. Take a finished part out of the machine instead of putting it back in for another op.

Height will probably limiting factor here. Tools may have not enough reach to make 2nd OP.

Why undo the clamps on all the parts after op one, just to put them in a nearly identical fixture that is just rotated 90 degrees? Make your second op so that the whole bar from op1 just gets reoriented and clamped (spun 90)

That's fantastic! Curious if your customer shared how many revisions they went through before getting it so nailed down?

Thanks for sharing, I like to see different ways to hold parts, this one is interesting as it doesn't depend on some of the more expensive mini clamps, but is still highly effective. Good job Byron

I have just spent 2 hours watching your videos, in which I have no practical interest. It is nice to see someone who is not just a go-getter but is dynamic about the processes that lead to business success WITHOUT treating the staff as just economic units. A polished presentation does not hurt either.

fixture Friday... wow, this is what i needed. i have little bit time in machining and transitioned into machining more intricate work holding such as fixtures not that long ago. These kind of webisodes are awesome and just another example of how much more notoriety this industry is receiving week in week out, this type of media is paving the way for future shop owners.

Nice but it could be done in so many different ways instead of nuts and clamps for each side use a bolt or all thread that goes through the whole fixture and then you only need to tighten 3 nuts in stead of 6

Or you could put it on 4th axis and finish the part in on set up

Of course. There are lots of ways to make a part. This series focuses on creative fixtures.

How does the o ring explains ? Is there a taper matched at the end of the screws? Also what kind of rings ? I wonder how long before you need to replace them . I like the fixture

Hopefully, this will be seen as constructive rather than overly critical... I designed progressive dies and various tooling for Toyota for 10+ years fwiw. Things that typically lead to mislocation of parts in a fixture are burrs, nicks digs, chips, etc., usually on locating edges and faces. Whole face contact exacerbates that issue, as do edge locators that aren't relieved, especially at face edges. That's typically where dings show up. If you want to use dowels, spring for stepped pins instead, leaving a 1mm gap underneath for any burr or ding. Or I guess you could spin-grind a small groove in your dowel pins if the time isn't worth that much to you. Whole face contact is another issue that increases chance of misslocation due to chips and surface issues. One I see a lot in fixture design. If you look at an Erowa, system3R, Herman Schmidt etc, pallet chuck, you'll see how they deal with this issue. Granted, you may not be machining parts to microns, but we're talking 'best practices' here. You're machining the nesting face, so you can easily machine pads in for minimum contact or for more durability, buy hardened or carbide rest pads. Any reduction in surface area and you'll need to reassess the cutting forces, vectors, surface area and friction, etc., so the old adage, "it depends", still applies.
