This project is about to design and manufacturing of inspection fixture for a car back seat supportingstructure, which involves defined shape based on the assembly. The purpose of inspection fixture is to inspect the wirediameter, shape of frame, and fitment position in the Assembly. Inspection fixture plays key role in the mass productionsystem. In the present fixture the inspection of the product is carried out manually, which leads to problems ofmisalignment and inaccuracy. This inaccuracy will increase the rejection of components. In order to minimize this errorand reduce the rejection, it becomes essential to design a special purpose auxiliary attachment to the existing fixture. Todesign the inspection fixture, CATIA V5 R21 software is used. The aim of the project is to design and develop aprototype model by using 3D printer, to recognize how it will inspect the wire diameter and structure. By using thisinspection fixture we inspect the diameter and size of wire.
