Hey guys,

I get asked so many questions about our modular fixtures and the CNC workholding components inside them by curious CNC machinists and programmers. It really comes down to two main questions.

How do I use them?
How will they help me?
That's why we created a little plastic modular fixture that we can provide to you as a demo kit. It has all the basic elements of a full-sized modular fixture in it. This gives you the ability to actually test the fixture out and quick-change something yourselves!

Let me walk you through the demo kit.

The demo kit contains:

Invert-a-Bolt Fasteners
Modular Fixture for CNC Workholding Demo Kit

The Invert-a-Bolt Fasteners in this kit are our acrylic giveaway fasteners. The Invert-a-Bolt Fastener is used to hold the part from the bottom, eliminate obstructions to machining, and to drastically reduce setup times.

ZipBushings

Our ZipBushing Precision Threaded Locator is our patent-pending multi-purpose hole. You would use this for Dowel Pins, Shoulder Screws, Screws, and our Xzert Retractable Dowel Pin.

The Retractable Dowel Pins are used for location and designed to go up and down, meaning they are always located in the fixture, and ready to pop-up whenever you need them. They can be used in the slot or in the ZipBushing.

The modular fixture also has little locating pivots that we call "Livets".

We also have our T-Slot Fasteners which slides in and out of the T-Slots.

The T-Slot Fasteners come in two sizes 16MM & 18MM. In this case, we are using 16MM T-Slot Fasteners.

What's great about this modular fixture demo kit is that is a hybrid between a standard grid modular fixture and T-Slot fixture.

All in all, this kit will allow you to show your team members how these workholding components work!

Check out the video and let us know if you would like a demo kit to try out for yourself!

Thanks, guys!
