Seamless 3D printing integration

Exports are optimized for 3D printing, so once your design is complete, simply slice, 3D print, and deploy your custom fixture within hours.

05_AddElements_Isometric

Industry-standard components included

A range of standard clamps and baseplates are available directly in fixturemate, saving you the hassle of creating these components from scratch.

fixturemate design workflow

Step 1

Import CAD data

Upload STL, 3MF, SLDPRT, or STEP workpieces, and position them in the workspace. 

01_ImportWorkpiece
Step 1
Step 2

Define the baseplate 

Your fixture's baseplate can be a standard manufactured component, or completely 3D printed.

02_DesignBaseplate
Step 2
Step 3

Generate support structures

Support workpieces with rectangular, cylindrical, conical, or custom-shaped structures.

03_CreateSupport_isometric_Zoomin
Step 3
Step 4

Create a negative

Subtract your workpiece geometry from the support structures to form a nested geometry, and fine-tune offsets for a snug fixture fit.

04_GenerateNegativ_Isometric_Zoomin
Step 4
Step 5

Add standard components

Incorporate optional features, such as clamps, text labels, holes, or cutouts.

Step 5
Step 6

Export for 3D printing 

fixturemate outputs STL files optimized for 3D printing. It can also auto-generate PDFs of 2D drawings to clearly communicate the assembly process.
