PCC extensively utilizes its CAD capabilities in the design of tooling and fixturing. These applications assure the efficient development of tooling to fully meet the user's needs.

The design can be developed utilizing Unigraphics solid modeling, 3D wireframe or 2D approach. Solid modeling has many advantages which include enhanced design tools for creating complex parts and improved communication through accurate 3D isometric views. These 3D models can be accurately detailed through the use of a CAD library of vendor parts. Traditional 2D CAD is used frequently for less complex parts.

Upon completion of the design, Precision Components can perform a finite element analysis of the fixture as necessary to determine its structural integrity.

PCC has developed expertise in designing tooling and fixturing to support all aspects of fabrication including lifting fixtures, leak test systems, hydrostatic test equipment, remote viewing/inspection equipment manipulators. Much of this design experience was developed to address specialized needs and requirements that could not be resolved utilizing traditional fixturing. This creativity and expertise can be applied to efficiently meet your special operational needs.
