ABSTRACT:
A modular fixturing apparatus component includes a body and a locator mechanism. The locator means is supported in the body for linear movement along the longitudinal axis of the body and for rotational movement about the longitudinal axis. The locator mechanism is provided to locate a center of an opening in an article undergoing inspection or the like. The modular fixturing apparatus component further includes a support surface that is provided at the body and that provides support for the article along the longitudinal axis. In this manner, when the component is mounted to a modular fixturing base plate, the fixturing apparatus component of the present invention provides a datum hole locator mechanism with a sliding action along the Z-axis and, further, provides Z-axis support for the article undergoing inspection or the like. Optionally, the locator mechanism may be rotationally locked to provide an additional, rotational restraint to the article undergoing inspection.
