I finally got my Faro P4 up and running, mounted to a Vere optical table that has 1/4-20 holes on 2" centers.
Now I need a decent fixturing kit to hold the parts I want to inspect. They will be mostly smaller, like less than 12"x12"x12". Some metal, some plastic.
I was looking online and see a company called Te-Co seems to make some kits :
Item # 121 4, English Coordinate Measuring Machine Clamp Kits On TE-CO
This is $331 and looks basic but includes at lease some serrated blocks and the nuts/threaded rods in 1/4-20 to mount some basic parts to table
They also sell more elaborate kits :
Comprehensive Fixturing Kit On TE-CO
Which cost far more.
What do I really need and what is a good place to find this stuff on the cheap ? Do you have any keywords or brand names I can be searching for on ebay and such ?
Thanks for all help as usual !
