Weld access & pressure

Preferred weld-access radius (in)Dashed circles reserve room for the weld gun. Clamps may enter when needed to hold a tube; clear access is preferred.

Click the frame to add weld markers. Click a marker to remove it.

Arrows show load direction. Yellow indicates a supported path; amber indicates a position to review. Intensity is relative, not a stress calculation.

Auto-Fixture Settings

Checks every loose tube separately: three supports, two side contacts and one end stop. Chooses a compact mix of blocks and supported clamp positions.

Tool preference

Move tools freely on the hole grid. Yellow marks flush contact; a brief message confirms it. Each fixture block retains a ball lock bolt. Clamps use their own posts or channel shoes.
