Tuscan T5050 Dovetail Fixture – High‑Precision, Cost‑Effective Clamping Solution for CNC Machining
The Tuscan T5050 Dovetail Fixture is a premium, UK‑manufactured workholding solution engineered for high‑precision clamping in 3, 4, and 5‑axis CNC machining operations. Measuring 50 mm x 50 mm x 38 mm, this robust fixture provides secure, accurate holding for components requiring ample clearance and repeatable positioning throughout intricate machining processes.
Key Features:
Superior Clamping Force with 45° Dovetail Design:
The fixture’s 45° dovetail jaw design delivers exceptional clamping strength by maximising the contact area between the fixture and the workpiece. This ensures that parts remain firmly held—even under heavy cutting forces—reducing the risk of slippage during demanding multi‑axis CNC machining.
Precision Locating Pin for Repeatability:
Equipped with a spring‑loaded locating pin, the Tuscan T5050 prevents any lateral or longitudinal movement of the workpiece. This enables repeatable billet loading, improves setup consistency, and reduces downtime, significantly boosting machining efficiency.
Solid and Versatile Construction:
Its larger footprint and height make it ideal for applications where both rigidity and clearance are essential. The T5050 is especially suitable for bespoke fixture plates and multi‑load setups that require stability across a range of part geometries and sizes.
User‑Friendly Operation:
The spring‑loaded clamp can be tightened quickly and securely using a standard T‑handle wrench, allowing for fast part changeovers without special tooling. This enhances productivity, especially in busy workshops or high‑volume production environments.
Robust Steel Build:
Manufactured from high‑quality steel, the Tuscan T5050 offers outstanding durability and longevity. It withstands the rigours of heavy-duty machining operations while maintaining precision and reliability over time.
Cost‑Effective Alternative to 5th Axis Dovetail Fixtures:
The Tuscan T5050 delivers performance and precision comparable to premium 5th Axis dovetail fixtures (such as the DM12, DM25, and DM50 series), but at a significantly lower price point. It’s an ideal choice for companies looking to optimise costs without compromising on machining accuracy.
Applications:
The Tuscan T5050 Dovetail Fixture is perfect for engineers and manufacturers seeking precise, repeatable workholding solutions across industries such as aerospace, automotive, medical device manufacturing, and general engineering. It’s particularly well-suited to multi‑axis CNC machining centres where complex parts require secure clamping and fast setup.
Its sturdy design also makes it invaluable when mounting multiple fixtures on a single plate—enabling efficient batch machining of multiple parts simultaneously. Whether you’re machining small batches of prototypes or high-volume production runs, the Tuscan T5050 provides the reliability and precision needed to meet tight tolerances and maintain high throughput.
