This chapter describes the technique of fixturing and how to apply it.

• Fixturing in MIL
• Steps for fixturing
• Basic concepts for fixturing
• Calibration and one or many fixtures
• • If you don't really need to work in real world units except for fixturing purposes
  • Multiple relative coordinate systems
• Moving the relative coordinate system
• • Moving using a model
  • Moving using a metrology reference frame
  • Moving using a position and angle expressed in a specified relative coordinate system
  • Moving using a position and angle that are with respect to the absolute coordinate system
  • Moving using a point and direction point that are with respect to the relative coordinate system
  • Moving the relative coordinate system in 3D
  • Copying the new relative coordinate system to other images
• Fixturing offset
• • Fixturing offset for convenience
  • • Moving the reference location prior to searching
    • Moving the relative coordinate system to a logical offset from a reference location
  • Fixturing offset to decouple the reference location from the object to analyze
  • Establishing the positional and angular offset for the fixturing offset object
• After fixturing
• • Inputting values in real-world units
  • Results in world units
  • Restricting processing/analysis to a region of interest defined in world units
  • Transforming your images after fixturing
