Apparatus / Fixture Design
Sustained quality, high precision, and operational efficiency on production lines are only possible with properly designed tooling and fixture solutions. At TKare Engineering, we design tooling and fixtures that are 100% compliant with the specific specifications, technical standards, and process requirements of our customers in the automotive, home appliance, defense, and aerospace sectors.
With our ergonomic, durable, and precision tolerance solutions, we ensure the reliability of your manufacturing and quality control processes.
Our Areas of Expertise and Services
- Checking Fixtures are high-precision inspection mechanisms designed to quickly and accurately verify that parts produced in mass production comply with dimensional, form, and Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) standards.
- Welding Fixtures & Tools (Welding Fixtures) These are fixture designs that ensure the correct positioning of parts during spot, MIG, or laser welding processes, minimize deformation caused by welding heat, and feature rapid clamping and release mechanisms.
- Assembly Fixtures & Tools (Assembly Fixtures) These are specialized tooling solutions used on assembly lines where different components are brought together; they prioritize operator ergonomics, prevent assembly errors (Poka-Yoke), and accelerate line cycle times.
- Measurement Fixtures (CMM Fixtures) Measurement fixtures that ensure parts are secured without flexing, using repeatable and accurate reference points (RPS), for use in CMMs (Coordinate Measuring Machines) or 3D optical scanning systems.
- Test Fixtures: These are specialized test stations and fixtures designed to perform leak testing, strength testing, operational testing, and mechanical function testing on finished parts or assembled assemblies.
