Flextur is Changing the Game with Innovative Fixture Solutions

Fixture faster, with less expense and greater flexibility

Custom Welding Fixtures Designed for Precision, Productivity, and Lean Manufacturing

Welding fixtures are specialized tools used to hold, support, and align parts during the welding process. By ensuring accuracy and repeatability, fixtures reduce operator error, minimize rework, and improve overall weld quality. Manufacturers across industries-from automotive and aerospace to agricultural and heavy equipment rely on modular and custom fixtures to boost throughput and support lean manufacturing initiatives.

At Flextur, we design and manufacture custom welding fixtures to your exact specifications. Every fixture is engineered to solve your unique production challenges, improve workflow efficiency, and deliver long-term durability in demanding environments. Whether you need a one-off fixture or a complete system, our team partners with you from concept to completion to ensure a perfect fit for your operation.

Key Benefits of Flextur Welding Fixtures

  • Custom Solutions – Tailored to multi-step assemblies or unique part geometries.
  • Accuracy and Repeatability – Fixtures lock in part alignment for consistent welds, even across thousands of cycles.
  • Improved Productivity – Reduce setup times, streamline training, and keep welders focused on welding-not on workarounds.
  • Lean Manufacturing Support – Well-designed fixtures align with 5S and Lean principles, eliminating wasted time and movement.
  • Turnkey Implementation – Fixtures arrive ready to work, fully integrated with your current tools and tables.
  • Durable Construction – Made in the USA from mild steel for long-term use.
  • Cost Effective – Easily adapt to minor part revisions over time without starting from scratch, or the investment of traditional fixtures.

Flextur’s Welding Fixture Process

Our proven 5-phase process ensures every fixture is designed, validated and shipped to meet your production needs.

Initial Engagement – Understanding Your Needs

We start by protecting your information and gathering project details.

  • Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) ensures confidentiality.
  • Collect STEP files or CAD data for accurate design.
  • Conduct a virtual meeting to capture requirements and technical details.

Quoting & Conceptualization – Transparent Pricing & Ideas

We provide a clear path forward with pricing and concept outlines.

  • Deliver a fixture quote and high-level concept overview.
  • Schedule a follow-up meeting to review the quote and answer questions.

Concept Development – Tailored Design & Refinement

Your input shapes the final fixture.

  • Begin detailed design upon receiving your purchase order.
  • Share a detailed fixture concept for review.
  • Refine the concept through virtual meetings until you approve.

Finalization & Scheduling – Ready for Production

We lock in the design and prepare for fabrication.

  • Obtain formal sign-off on the approved concept.
  • Confirm ship date based on current lead times.
  • Request validation parts from you for testing and verification.

Build, Validate & Deliver – Precision in Action

We manufacture, test, and deliver your customer fixture.

  • Build the fixture according to the approved design.
  • Validate with customer-supplied parts for perfect fit and function.
  • Package and ship the completed fixture.
  • Ongoing support after delivery to ensure performance is as expected.

“The success of any investment really comes down to how quickly it pays back against the sacrifices made to launch it. The cobots, quick change tables, and fixtures have rapidly improved our Safety, Quality and Capacity. They have been relatively easy to deploy, and we look for more opportunities to add more throughout our transformation. These projects have been a win all around.”

Weld Fixturing Q&A

What is a welding fixture and why is it important?

A welding fixture is a custom or modular tool used to hold, position, and support components during the welding process. Unlike clamps or improvised setups, fixtures provide repeatable precision, reduce operator error, improve safety, and speed up production.

What types of welding fixtures does Flextur offer?

Flextur offers modular welding fixtures, custom-designed fixtures, and robotic/cobot-compatible fixtures. These simple fixtures typically wrap the part, only allowed parts fit when properly configured, therefore eliminating mistakes and costly rework.

How are Flextur Fixtures different from standard options?

Unlike many common fixtures, Flextur systems are scalable, and built for industrial-grade performance. They integrate Lean manufacturing principles and are engineered with input from welders, ensuring practical usability on the shop floor. Flextur fixtures typically require no machining time and can be easily and inexpensively altered should a design change arise.

Can Flextur build custom fixtures for my application?

Yes. Our team specializes in custom fixture design. We work with you to understand your part geometry, welding process, and production goals, then design and prototype a fixture tailored to your specific workflow.

Are Flextur fixtures compatible with my existing welding table?

In most cases, yes. Our modular fixture components can be adapted to a wide range of tables and welding environments. We can also build custom mounting solutions or recommend compatible Flextur tables if needed.

How do welding fixtures improve productivity?

By reducing setup time, ensuring accurate alignment, and eliminating rework, welding fixtures free up your welders to focus on welding. They also shorten training time for new operators.

What industries use Flextur welding fixtures?

Industries including automotive, aerospace, construction equipment, agricultural machinery, defense, rail, and general industrial fabrication-anywhere precision welding is required.
