Tuscan T2132 Dovetail Fixture – High-Precision, Cost-Effective Clamping Solution for CNC Machining

The Tuscan T2132 Dovetail Fixture is a premium, UK-manufactured workholding product engineered for high-precision clamping in 3, 4, and 5-axis CNC machining operations. Measuring just 32mm x 24mm x 20mm, this compact fixture is designed to provide secure, accurate holding for components that require ample clearance and repeatable positioning during complex machining processes.

Key Features:

Superior Clamping Force with 45° Dovetail Design: The fixture’s 45-degree dovetail jaw design delivers exceptional clamping strength by maximising the contact area between the fixture and workpiece. This ensures that parts remain firmly held, even under heavy cutting forces typically encountered in multi-axis CNC machining, reducing the risk of slippage or movement.

Precision Locating Pin for Repeatability: Equipped with a spring-loaded locating pin, the Tuscan T2132 prevents any lateral or longitudinal movement of the workpiece. This feature enables repeatable billet loading and improves setup consistency, reducing downtime and increasing overall machining efficiency.

Compact and Versatile: Its small footprint makes it ideal for applications where space is limited, or multiple fixtures need to be installed within tight machining envelopes. This versatility also makes the T2132 suitable for bespoke fixture plates and multi-load setups, supporting a wide range of part geometries and sizes.

User-Friendly Operation: The spring-loaded clamp can be quickly and securely tightened using a standard T-handle wrench, allowing for fast part changeovers without the need for specialised tooling. This enhances productivity in busy workshops and high-volume production environments.

Robust and Durable Construction: Manufactured from high-quality steel, the Tuscan T2132 offers excellent durability and longevity, withstanding the rigours of heavy-duty machining operations while maintaining precision and reliability over time.

Cost-Effective Alternative to 5th Axis Dovetail Fixtures: The Tuscan T2132 delivers comparable performance, precision, and build quality to premium 5th Axis dovetail fixtures such as the DM12, DM25, and DM50 series but at a significantly lower price point. This makes it an ideal choice for companies looking to optimise costs without compromising on machining accuracy or reliability.

Applications:

The Tuscan T2132 Dovetail Fixture is perfect for engineers and manufacturers requiring precise, repeatable workholding solutions across a variety of industries including aerospace, automotive, medical device manufacturing, and general engineering. It is especially well-suited for multi-axis CNC machining centres where complex parts need secure clamping and quick setup times.

Its compact design makes it invaluable in situations where multiple fixtures are mounted on a single plate, enabling efficient batch machining of multiple parts simultaneously. Whether you are machining small batches of prototypes or high-volume production runs, the Tuscan T2132 provides the reliability and precision necessary to meet demanding tolerances and improve overall throughput.
