Jigs, fixtures & production tooling
Build jigs, fixtures, and production tooling in days, not weeks. Stop letting fixture queues hold up product launches and free your CNC from low-margin tooling work.
The reality
Every new project needs new tooling
Each product variant, line change, or quality program adds another jig or fixture to the queue. Tooling competes for the same CNC capacity as production parts, usually loses priority, and ends up delaying the work it's supposed to support.
The cost
CNC is the bottleneck, tooling is the casualty
Fixtures cut from solid blocks waste material, take days of milling time, and rarely justify the CNC cycle they consume. Every engineering change starts the queue over. Meanwhile the production line waits for tooling that should have been ready last week.
What changes
Fixtures off the printer, finished where it counts
SinuCraft hybrid cells print jigs and fixtures from pellets in days. CNC finishing applies only to contact surfaces and tolerance-critical features. Iterations land overnight. The line gets its tooling on time.
Built on
The control stack your team already knows
SINUMERIK ONE motion. G-code input. The same CAM workflows your tooling engineers already use. The cell slots into the practices your team already runs, without a new platform or a training program.
How we deploy
From queue chaos to predictable tooling flow
We don't sell a machine and walk away. We start from how your tooling actually moves through production today, design the workflow around the fixture types you build most often, and stay with your team through ramp-up. Three phases, predictable timeline.
Phase 01
Audit
We look at your current fixture volume, typical iteration count, and where tooling work is displacing production on the CNC. The output is a clear picture of where hybrid manufacturing pays back, and which fixture types benefit most.
Phase 02
Process design
We define the additive-versus-subtractive split for your typical fixture types, finishing allowances for contact surfaces, and CAM workflows that match your existing practices.
Phase 03
Commissioning and ramp-up
Installation takes about a week. First production fixtures run within two to three weeks. Operator training and program validation happen alongside your team, in your environment.
Built in the Czech Republic
European components throughout, with NIS2-grade security built in via the Siemens platform.
What changes for your tooling team
Tooling in days
Near-net fixtures in days, CNC finishing only where it counts.
Iteration without penalty
Redesign, reprint, validate. Engineering changes stop being a multi-week problem.
CNC freed for production
High-value CNC hours go back to precision work, not to bracketry.
Material economics
Pellet extrusion uses material where it's needed, not as a block to be cut away.
FAQs
“We would like to express our complete satisfaction with Sinucraft. Two and a half months ago, they delivered and installed a large-format 3D printer for us. During this time, we have been testing it intensively with various materials, and the machine works flawlessly. What we particularly appreciate, however, is the fantastic technical support. Whenever we needed help or a consultation, the team was always available, ready to connect remotely and resolve any issue. We definitely recommend working with Sinucraft.”
