Work Holding Fixtures
We provide custom work-holding systems or fixtures for a wide range of applications, including CNC machining, robotic welding, automatic presses, inspection, and assembly. Our experience in designing and building custom gauge fixtures allows us to build work-holding fixtures with ease. Pneumatic fixtures for holding work pieces in a robotic welding cell are also provided. All fixtures are available with the necessary electronic, hydraulic, and pneumatic integration that conforms to ANSI 14.5 GD & T standards. In addition, our hydraulic integration capabilities include both internal and external porting.
We are staffed with an experienced and capable design team that offers services for the complete design of custom work holding fixtures to your specifications. Besides designing your custom gauges, our ability extends to working with your prints and building all your custom fixtures to print. 2D and 3D models of parts are analyzed with AutoCAD and SolidWorks, while designing work holding fixtures. In addition, after fabrication all our fixtures are inspected in our in-house ISO 17025:2005 and ANSI Z540-1 certified calibration lab.

Work Holding Fixtures Capabilities
Lead Times
At Kent Machine, Inc., our unique and efficient job flow process allows us minimize lead times down to 24 hrs compared with other custom gauge designers that turn around gauges and in-process checking fixtures in 2 - 3 days minimum. This is a significant advantage for turnaround of repairs so that our customers keep their manufacturing downtime to a minimum in cases where production functional gauges break, fail, or fall out of calibration.
