Subscription Service for 3D Fixture Modeling Software



FixtureBuilder 8.1 enables design of fixturing set-ups in seconds and then exports them to inspection programming software of choice, using popular file formats like IGES, SAT and STEP.

Renishaw's FixtureBuilder 3D fixture-modeling software is now available via a new subscription service. Customers can take advantage of a complimentary 12-month subscription to this highly accessible fixture-planning software when they purchase qualifying metrology fixturing products or bundles. The user-friendly software allows quick creation and documentation of advanced CAD-based metrology fixturing set-ups for repeatable and productive part inspection. Users have access to the full catalog of Renishaw metrology fixturing components when designing and documenting their modular fixturing set-ups.

Renishaw's FixtureBuilder software features an intuitive interface, complete with clear and well-organized component libraries, intelligent drag-and-drop functionality and an easy-to-use constraint mechanism. Its full CAD compatibility and custom libraries further enhance the user experience.

The software's standout feature is its "Build It" function, which automates the generation of work instructions and bill of materials for each fixture set-up. This simplifies the purchase of fixturing components and helps users to meet quality standards.

"Our fast and flexible FixtureBuilder software is a powerful addition to any manufacturer's inspection workflow," said Will Paul, Product Marketing Manager. "The weakest link in an inspection process is often the ability to design and document comprehensive fixturing set-ups with ease and speed. FixtureBuilder gives our customers confidence in the positioning of their parts."

FixtureBuilder 8.1, the latest version of this software, enables design of fixturing set-ups in seconds and then exports them to inspection programming software of choice, using popular file formats like IGES, SAT and STEP. This ensures seamless functionality and compatibility with industry-standard inspection programs and applications.
