Welding Fixtures
When parts are positioned and held manually, weld locations and setup times can vary from one assembly to the next.
Custom locators, stops, clamps and welded fixture frames.

Custom Jigs, Fixtures & Manufacturing Improvements
Reduce Setup Time. Improve Repeatability. Simplify Production.
Send us a sample part, drawings, photos or a description of the operation. We design and fabricate custom jigs, fixtures and workholding in-house, with trial fitting and adjustments using actual parts when samples are available.

Production Problems We Help Solve
When setup, positioning or repetitive handling slows production, a purpose-built jig or fixture can make the operation easier to perform consistently.
Assembly Jigs
When an assembly requires repeated measuring, positioning and clamping, those operations can be built into dedicated tooling.
Assembly nests, locating pins, supports and positioning aids.
Setup & Changeover Aids
When machine setup or changeover takes too long, dedicated positioning and alignment aids can simplify repeated operations.
Setup guides, locating devices, stops and changeover tooling.
Workholding & Part Location
When parts are difficult to hold consistently, purpose-built clamps, nests and locators can improve positioning and accessibility.
Custom workholding, part supports and mechanical locating systems.
Handling Aids & Workstations
When an operation involves unnecessary handling or awkward positioning, a better workstation or support can simplify the task.
Custom assembly stations, handling supports and production workstations.
What Could a Fixture Save You?
Even a small reduction in setup or handling time can add up when the same operation is repeated throughout the day.
3 minutes saved per part times 40 parts per day equals 2 hours of operator time per day.
If a fixture reduces manual positioning by three minutes on a part produced 40 times a day, that represents two hours of potential operator time saved each day.
Illustrative calculation only. Actual savings depend on the process, production volume and results achieved.

From Production Problem to Working Fixture
- 01
Understand the Operation
Show us the part, the production task and what slows it down or causes variation. Photos, drawings or a video are a good starting point; a site visit can be discussed if needed.
- 02
Design & Quote the Tooling
We review the requirements, develop the proposed fixture concept and agree on the design scope, pricing and estimated timeline before work begins.
- 03
Build & Fit the Fixture
We fabricate and assemble the tooling at our London facility. When sample parts are available, we can use them for trial fitting and adjustments.
- 04
Ready for Production
The completed fixture is prepared for pickup or arranged delivery, with operating and setup requirements addressed as agreed in the project scope.
Is a Repetitive Task Slowing Down Production?
Send us photos, drawings or a description of the operation. We'll discuss how a custom jig or fixture could improve setup, positioning and repeatability.
Need More Than a Fixture?
We also help manufacturers modify existing equipment and fabricate custom components for production areas.
