Challenges
When prototyping exhaust assemblies, accuracy is of utmost importance. The process of building a dedicated fixture for every new exhaust assembly was time consuming and costly. Not to mention the further complications that arose when they needed to make any “on the fly” adjustments.
Solution
Instead of creating a separate fixture for each exhaust assembly, the modular table and kit allows for multiple prototypes on a single fixture.
• D16 1200mm X 2400mm Table and Kit
• Templates used for quick setup and changeover
• Digital setup instructions provided for repeating setup
Result
A single modular fixturing solution can be used for virtually any exhaust platform, eliminating the repeated expense and expanding space needed to build and store the dozens of dedicated fixtures that used to be needed. The templates and digital instructions provided by Bluco engineers help cut fixture design and build time significantly. Plus, modular versatility makes fine-tuning easy, resulting in a more accurate and faster prototyping process for this manufacturer.
