BIW Fixture Design Module

Automate BIW fixture design with CitiusKBE’s NX-based module. Eliminate manual errors, accelerate validation, and improve quality and design efficiency.

Advanced Fixture Design Automation with NX CAD

Improved Design and Quality in Fixture Design – Automotive

Introduction to BIW Fixture Design Module

The Citius BIW Fixture Design Module is an advanced suite of NX-based applications designed to accelerate fixture design, validation, and documentation processes for the automotive and aerospace industries. It empowers engineers to automate repetitive modeling, checking, and reporting tasks, ensuring accuracy, consistency, and speed across the fixture design lifecycle.

In Body-in-White (BIW) engineering, fixture design is one of the most critical and time-intensive processes. It requires high precision, constant validation, and extensive documentation. The Citius BIW Fixture Design Module was developed to simplify and streamline these processes.

This integrated module includes a collection of powerful NX-based applications that automate core fixture design operations from NC trimming and clearance checking to hole validation, reporting, and checklist management. The result is a more reliable, traceable, and efficient fixture design workflow.

Key Challenges in Fixture Design

The Citius BIW Fixture Design Module addresses all these challenges by providing a unified automation framework that ensures design precision and quality from start to finish.

  • Manual verification of NC fingers and contact surfaces
  • Inconsistent hole information across assemblies
  • Time-consuming model comparisons and data exports
  • Difficulty maintaining design standards and QC checklists
  • Risks of interference and clearance issues during assembly

Core Applications of the BIW Fixture Design Module

CitiusKBE delivers advanced CAD automation tools and engineering productivity solutions
Fixture NC Check Application

Fixture NC Check Application

Automatically trims NC fingers to the nearest component face and checks their contact condition. Classifies contact points as touching, interfering, or having clearance. Generates comprehensive HTML visual reports for quick verification.

  • Reduces rework and assembly delays
  • Improves tool quality and consistency
  • Enhances verification accuracy

Hole Information Application

Performs automatic identification of hole types threaded, dowel, clearance, and counter holes in both part and assembly files. Maps hole data even in imported models and prepares it for drawing automation.

  • Saves detailing time
  • Avoids hole identification errors
  • Enables hole table creation for manufacturing
Hole Alignment Check Application

Hole Alignment Check Application

Detects mismatched or misaligned holes between mating components. Provides color-coded visualization for easy review and generates an interactive HTML report.

  • Eliminates manual contact verification
  • Reduces design errors before drawing release
  • Improves accuracy and productivity
CitiusKBE delivers advanced CAD automation tools and engineering productivity solutions

Assembly Clearance Check Application

Automates the clearance check process between fixture components and between fixtures and robots. Identifies and reports interferences with clear classifications.

  • Ensures safety and operational reliability
  • Saves time during design validation
  • Reduces costly rework and downtime
Model Compare Application

Model Compare Application

Compares two similar models to identify face and edge deviations. Performs detailed geometric comparisons and reports deviations through an easy-to-read HTML summary.

  • Simplifies model adaptation and revision
  • Saves expert review time
  • Improves version control and accuracy
CitiusKBE delivers advanced CAD automation tools and engineering productivity solutions

Note Creation Application

Automates the creation and placement of standard and custom manufacturing notes on drawings. Supports both admin and designer modules for flexibility and control.

  • Streamlines note creation
  • Ensures consistency across drawings
  • Reduces manual effort and omissions
Integrated Checklist Application

Integrated Checklist Application

Digitizes and automates design and QC checklists. Links checklist templates directly to NX CAD data, enabling automatic verification and reporting.

  • Simplifies QC process management
  • Improves traceability and accountability
  • Enhances product and process quality
Fixture NC Check Application

One-Go Export Application

Exports entire tool assemblies in multiple formats (STEP, IGES, JT, Parasolid, PDF) with a single action. Automatically organizes files into folders for efficient review and vendor sharing.

  • Simplifies data export and sharing
  • Reduces errors during data handover
  • Improves overall design-to-manufacturing cycle time

Benefits of the BIW Fixture Design Module

  • Accelerated Fixture Design: Automate repetitive operations and reduce design cycle time.
  • Improved Accuracy: Eliminate human error with intelligent checks and reports.
  • Standardized Workflows: Maintain uniform design and documentation practices.
  • Enhanced Collaboration: Share structured reports for faster design reviews.
  • Faster Validation: Identify issues early in the NX environment with automated analysis.
  • Higher Productivity: Free up engineers to focus on creative design improvements.
