Measurement Fixtures

What are Measurement Fixtures

A measurement fixture is a precision tool designed to position and hold components accurately during dimensional inspection and metrology operations.

These systems are typically used when a process:

  • Requires high-accuracy measurements
  • Involves complex geometries or tight tolerances
  • Must ensure repeatable positioning
  • Integrates with CMM or other metrology equipment

By combining stable positioning with precise reference points, a reliable measurement process is created where accuracy, repeatability, and efficiency come together.

At Fixar, we start from the measurement strategy and metrology requirements, ensuring the fixture supports precise and repeatable positioning of the component. We design each solution to integrate seamlessly with the intended measurement equipment.

The process typically includes:

  • Analysis of measurement requirements and tolerances
  • Fixture concept development and engineering
  • Integration with CMM or metrology systems
  • Optimization of positioning and accessibility
  • Manufacturing and assembly
  • Validation and repeatability testing

We ensure each fixture delivers stable and accurate measurement performance throughout its operational lifetime.

Fixar develops measurement fixtures with a strong focus on precision, repeatability, and ease of use, while maintaining close collaboration throughout the project. Every solution is aligned with your inspection and quality requirements.

The result is a measurement fixture that:

  • Guarantees accurate and repeatable positioning
  • Integrates efficiently with metrology equipment
  • Improves inspection speed and consistency

After delivery, we provide support, validation documentation, and guidance for efficient integration into your quality process.

FRequently asked questions

A checking fixture verifies if a part is OK or NOK (pass/fail) by checking fit or position.

A measurement fixture holds the part in the correct position so you can measure exact values like dimensions or tolerances.

In short:

  • Checking fixture = pass/fail
  • Measurement fixture = exact measurement

Yes. FiXar remains involved after delivery through start-up support, optimisation, technical assistance and maintenance advice. This ensures that the industrial automation system continues to perform reliably throughout its lifecycle.
