Frames & Backbones: Welding Fixture Workhorses

Frames and backbones literally make up the skeleton of a welding fixture. They support the base plate and all mounted components. In addition, they also provide structural reinforcements that run through a fixture to increase stiffness and dimensional stability.

Frames & Backbones – Stiff and Steady

Frames and backbones are typically mounted in a weld cell or are mounted between trunnions or positioners. As weld fixtures change over time, the frames and backbones allow for speed, efficiency and repeatability.

Benefits

Frames and backbones elevate tooling to ergonomic or robotic working heights while providing rigidity reinforcement, load distribution and position accuracy.
