Comprehensive Inspection & Functional Tooling Solutions.

Ensuring Quality & Process Efficiency

In modern automotive manufacturing, precision is non-negotiable. Checking Fixtures (Gauges) are the critical link between design intent and production reality, verifying GD&T compliance before assembly.

Beyond inspection, SUASE leverages 37 years of tooling expertise to provide a wide range of Functional Fixtures. From Cooling Fixtures that stabilize part dimensions to Punching and Leakage Test tools, we ensure your production line runs smoothly and accurately.

Technical Insights

Why use Cooling Fixtures?

For large plastic parts like bumpers or door panels, thermal contraction after demolding can cause warpage. Cooling fixtures hold the part in its nominal shape during the cooling phase, ensuring the final dimensions are within tolerance.

What is the advantage of Carbon Fiber gauges?

Carbon fiber offers excellent rigidity with minimal weight and near-zero thermal expansion. This makes large gauges easier to handle for operators and maintains accuracy even in environments with fluctuating temperatures.

Can you integrate sensors into fixtures?

Yes. For functional testing fixtures (e.g., leakage test or assembly check), we integrate digital displacement sensors, pressure sensors, and PLC controls to provide Go/No-Go signals and data logging capabilities.
