The high costs, single purpose fixtures and long set-up times traditionally required for holding large, contoured and/or variable geometry parts and structures are a thing of the past thanks to Kostyrka Universal Holding Fixtures, available exclusively in the UK from Roemheld. These fixtures offer unique passive and active solutions for holding fixtures for cutting, drilling, milling, riveting and assembly for use in the aircraft, aerospace and defense industries. They allow a high density of jack posts and will withstand very high axial and radial loads without deflection. The active UHF systems concentrate on highly accurate solutions and ‘smart’ vacuum cups incorporating ‘intelligent’ features. The Kostyrka UHF systems offer significant advantages over conventional (fixed) fixturing. They use up to several hundred computer controlled variable height shafts to rigidly hold curved and shaped panels such as aircraft wing skins. When implementing this flexible fixturing, recurring and non-recurring costs are minimised and set-up times reduced.
