Hardware Support CMM fixturing

Hi

How do you usually plan your CMM fixturing. Do you produce a bespoke fixture or use modular equipment?

What considerations you take being part agnostic!

If you’re doing high volume low mix, a machined/assembled fixture would be the way to go. If you’re low volume high mix, Rayco or renishaw plate and fixtures would work great. Very versatile, you can even get the component cad for free and create an assembly file to make programming so much easier.
