Every detail counts in fixture construction. Increasing efficiency and reducing costs starts with selecting the correct components. With over 130,000 immediately available standard, machine and operating parts from our range, you can accelerate your design and manufacturing processes considerably. Benefit from free CAD data, verified quality and fast availability to realise your fixtures quicker and more economically.

Fixtures are found in various industries, in manufacturing, assembly and repair processes:

• Aviation and aerospace technology

• Machine tool construction

• Vehicle construction

• Steel construction°

As a subfield of toolmaking, fixtures satisfy two basic functions.

1. Determining: Determining is a basic function and leads to a clear definition of the workpiece position within a device. 

2. Clamping: Clamping is a basic function and holds the workpiece in a reproducible position during machining.

The advantages of fixture construction:

• Ensuring consistent quality

• Reducing non-productive times

• Reducing machining times

• Improving ergonomic handling

In our application videos, we show you, in a practical setting how innovative solutions can be efficiently implemented in fixture construction.

Precise laser labelling and engraving of cylindrical components

In this video, we present an innovative fixture for high-precision laser labelling and engraving of cylindrical workpieces.

The centrepiece of the system is a rotary positioning stage with a powerful toothed belt drive, which ensures smooth and precisely controlled rotary movements. This permits labelling with high repeat precision - ideal for demanding applications such as marking scale lines, technical markings or individual labelling.

The combination of mechanical precision and modern laser technology enables efficient and high-quality processing - even for complex geometries or large batches.

Efficient fixture construction with norelem components

This video gives you an insight into the efficient and practice-orientated fixture construction at EMBE Zerspanung. This company has developed a high-precision measuring fixture that can be used to reliably test the cable insulation in electric vehicles.

Standard components from norelem are employed, which not only enable a simple design and quick implementation, but also meet the highest requirements for accuracy and repeatability. The precision of the fixture plays a decisive role, especially in safety-relevant test processes such as insulation testing.

Thanks to the modular norelem components, this measuring fixture could be realised efficiently and optimally adapted to the specific requirements in the field of electromobility.
