OmniStructures
Flexible Tooling at Its Best
Omni Structures is a pioneer and world leader in the development of flexible tooling systems. Omni is dedicated to helping engineers and technicians build superior flexible workholding fixtures, gauges and special machines. The flexible concept refers to a method in which inspection tooling is constructed from standard off-the-shelf modules. These modules may be configured as desired in the building of inspection equipment. And, when this equipment is no longer needed, the flexible modules are used to build the next generation of equipment.

S75 Macro Series 75 - Macro (S75) is the standard sized and best selling Omni modular fixturing product. The design adapts to virtually any shape and a wide variety of tooling from CMM holding fixtures to gauging and light assembly. S75 is used as the location and clamping details of large fixtures in conjuction with XTR, with Reference or S250 - Super . S75 bases are used with S37 - Micro for small part fixtures. S75 is the start and end of all Omni fixtures. Platform Sizes: (3" x 6", 6" x 12", 9" x 18", 12" x 24") x .750" thick (3" Sq., 6" Sq., 9" Sq., 12" Sq., 15 Sq.) x .750" thick. Extender Sizes: Single Width: .75" x (12", 18", 24") x .750" thick. Dual Width: 1.50" x (12", 18", 24", 36", 48") x .750" thick. Reference Bases: Custom sizes in 3" increments up to 36" square, and 30" x 60" and 36" square. These bases can be joined for larger surface areas. The Reference Hole Pattern can be machined into any fixture base.	S37 Micro Series 37 - Micro (S37) is the half-scale version of the Omni Series 75 - Macro (S75) modular fixturing system. It is the only system of its kind in the industry. S37 is designed for small parts in the 3/4" to 6" range. The smaller components allow building to finer details without obscuring the required measurement or access points. S37 adapts to S75 with a few simple, versatile adapters. These allow the construction of larger fixtures on S75 Base Platforms or mating to the small details of larger parts. S37 can be used on CMMs, video/optical systems and other measuring systems. Platform Sizes: (1.5" x 3" & 3" x 6") x .375" thick (aluminum) 6" x 9" x .50" thick (clear polycarbonate) Extender Sizes: .75" x 12" x .750" thick (S75 - Macro extenders with adapters). Any size Macro Extender or Base Platform can be used to connect multiple S37 Platforms.	S37 Micro Vision Series 37 - Micro Vision (S37v) is clear Platform version of the standard S37 Micro (S37) system and half-scale version of the Omni Series 75 - Macro (S75) modular fixturing system. It is designed specifically to hold small parts on vision inspection systems. The clear 6” x 9” Platform allows the rear illumination from vision inspection system to pass unrestricted for the proper shadow effect. Simple adaptable clamps secure the Platform to any vision system and if necessary multiple Platforms can be connected into large workholding surfaces. Platform Sizes: 6.00" x 9.00" x .50" Clear polycarbonate (1.50" x 3.00" & 3.00"” x 6.00") x .375" thick (aluminum) used for surface illumination Platforms are secured to the measurement machine with Platform Clamps. Extender Sizes: .75" x 12" x .750" thick (S75 - Macro extenders with adapters). Any size Macro Extender or Base Platform can be used to connect multiple S37 Micro Vision Platforms.
XTR XTR is the combination of special Omni Platforms, connection components and a variety of extruded tube sections to build columns and crossmembers. These assemblies will easily hold large stampings or heavy parts. S75 provides the adjustment, location and clamping components. Reference Plates provide the primary base support system. Complete tooling tables and walls can be constructed with Omni XTR. XTR Column Sizes: Footprint: 1.5" x 3", 3" x 3", 3" x 6" other sizes available for special applications. Length: standard pieces 6" to 36", specials available. XTR Cap Sizes: 3" square, 3" x 6", 6" square. Standard Omni Platforms can be adapted. XTR Base Sizes: 3" x 6", 6" square. Standard Omni Platforms can be adapted. Hole Spacings: Omni Penta™ - two interlaced .75" square patterns with special countersinks and attachment holes. Base & Cap Tooling Holes: Standard Omni S75 3/8-16, minor diameter held to .313" - .3145" Base & Cap Connections: 5/16-18 and ¼-20	S250 Super Series 250 - Super (S250) is a tubular system for building large fixtures, gauges and test equipment. Based on a 2.5" aluminum tube using Omni's proprietary cross-hole system and stacking capabilities. The S/Towers are the principle building components with the S/Bridges as the means to connect between the towers. The various inserts add threaded or thru-holes providing the connection between the tubes, Series 75 tooling components, or dedicated datum and clamping details. S250 components are used with the Series 75 Base Platforms on Extenders or Omni's Reference Plates as the base system. Special order. S/Tower Sizes: 2.5" square x (3", 6", 9", 12", 15") S/Bridge Sizes: 2.5" square x (13", 19", 25", 37") Inserts: A variety of Inserts are available for connections and mounting additional components.	Reference Plates Reference Plates are the rigid backbone of a very efficient building technique using Datum Tooling Stations (DTS). Omni Reference Plates are available in standard sizes up to 30" x 60" and 36" x 36". Custom sizes are available in 3" increments. Multiple plates can be combined into even larger tooling surfaces. Reference plates have a unique hole pattern designed to hold any S75 or XTR base platforms. This pattern and Omni’s thru-hole doweling capabilities provide the means to quickly change fixtures on a common base. A Reference Plate system can be designed in vertical, horizontal, or special orientations and combinations. The largest Reference Plate system currently in use is 240" x 60" (as shown in the photo). Datum Tooling Stations (DTS) consist of tooling towers built from various components on a single platform. A typical Datum Tooling Station would include a platform with at least one tower and whatever combination of location pads, clamps, and indicators/gauging equipment is deemed necessary to complete the task at hand. DTS are usually dedicated to a project through completion. They are then either dissembled or removed and left intact for later use with the same project. Plate Sizes: 30" x 30", 36" x 36", 30" x 60" other sizes available in 3" increments 1" thick Reference Plates can be joined to form larger tooling surfaces. The Reference hole pattern can be machined into any gauge base for portable fixture systems. Hole Pattern: 4 holes in a .750" square pattern, each "quad" of holes is spaced on 3.000" centers.
