What are Gauges

A gauge is a dedicated control tool used to quickly verify whether specific dimensions or features of a component are within acceptable tolerances.

These systems are typically used when a process:

  • Requires fast go/no-go validation
  • Involves repetitive inspection tasks
  • Needs simple and operator-independent checks
  • Must maintain consistent quality control

By combining functional measurement principles with robust mechanical design, an efficient inspection process is created where speed, simplicity, and consistency come together.

At Fixar, we begin by defining the critical dimensions and control points that need fast and reliable verification. We then design a gauge that simplifies inspection while ensuring robustness and repeatability.

The process typically includes:

  • Analysis of dimensions and inspection criteria
  • Concept development and gauge design
  • Definition of go/no-go or control principles
  • Ergonomic and durability optimization
  • Manufacturing and calibration
  • Testing and validation

We ensure every gauge is tailored to the production environment and daily operational use.

Fixar delivers gauges through a pragmatic and quality-focused approach, ensuring each solution is easy to use and fully adapted to the inspection process. Clients remain involved throughout key validation stages.

The result is a gauge that:

  • Enables quick and reliable quality checks
  • Reduces operator dependency and inspection time
  • Delivers durable and repeatable performance

After delivery, we provide documentation and support to ensure efficient implementation on the shop floor.
