Video Demo

These three videos demonstrate the actual usage of Invert-A-Bolt™ products. The Universal Stock Prep Fixture is used for Stage 1 machining & the Universal Common Modular Fixture (UCMF) is used for Stage 2 & 3 operations.

The method of manufacture is to picture-frame a part from rectangular or square stock material, using "over-the-top" tabs on one side of the part and "thin tabs" on the other side of the part. Picture-framing allows a manufacturer to eliminate datum locating the part throughout the manufacturing process which significantly simplifies the fixturing required.

Look at the UCMF to see the usage of Invert-A-Bolt™ fasteners and work supports.

The manufacturing operations shown depict the rough, rough/finish, and finish of side 1 and side 2 (respectively) of a part.

• Stage 1 is the stock prep and rough of side 1.
• Stage 2 is the rough and finish of side 2.
• Stage 3 is the finish of side 1. View the videos sequentially for best results.
