Carr Lock Fixture Plates

are precision-machined MIC-6 cast aluminum plates in a wide range of standard sizes to use as a base for building quick-change fixtures. The 12 x 14 fixture plate is .750" thick and has four locating/mounting holes for 20mm Carr Lock Clamps. Made in USA.

Accuracy

The Carr Lock System is extremely accurate. All Receiver-Bushing installation holes are located +/-.0002" from their primary reference hole. Clamping repeatability is +/-.0005", while bushing concentricity is .0002" TIR. The resulting x/y-axis repeatability of a mounted fixture plate is +/-.0028" considering all tolerance accumulation.

Mounting

To fasten the Carr Lock Fixture Plate to a subplate, begin by inserting a Carr Lock Clamp into each of the four corner holes. Next, fully tighten the clamps one at a time-first the clamp in the primary liner bushing, then the clamp in the secondary liner bushing, then the clamps in the clearance holes. Carr Lock Fixture Plates also have two fixture-key holes for conventional mounting directly on a slotted machine table using Sure-Lock Fixture Keys.
