FEATURES: Extremely useful for locating from existing holes or slots in a workpiece. Locating-Pin Adaptors use off-the-shelf Round and Diamond Locating Pins to fit hole diameters exactly. Round and diamond pins are often used together to locate from two holes in a workpiece. Round Pins are also useful as side locators. Adaptors are precision ground for accurate height location, in a choice of support heights to match other types of height locators. The fixed adaptors shown here mount directly in a multipurpose hole for maximum accuracy. Patent number 4,834,358.
LOCATING FROM TWO HOLES: When a round pin and diamond pin are used together, the round pin is the primary, 2-axis locator, while the diamond pin is the secondary, 1-axis locator. Diamond pins are relieved, to locate only in 1 horizontal axis. This prevents binding while loading and unloading the part, yet still maintains high accuracy. The round pin is usually mounted at a grid point, in a multipurpose hole, using a fixed adaptor. The diamond pin is usually located between grid points, to match the workpiece's hole spacing, using either a shorter fixed adaptor mounted on a Multipurpose Extension Support, or an adjustable adaptor.
