// Vantagens

Why Cubbings?

01

Real Environment Simulation

We replace theoretical components with physical models of high thermal stability, allowing for precise tuning of moulds and tools.

02

Interface Validation

Exhaustive analysis of gaps and flushes between multiple components to ensure a perfect fit and aesthetic integrity.

03

Time-to-Market Reduction

Early detection and correction of assembly errors, avoiding costly rework and project launch delays.

04

Critical Applications

Essential for ensuring the quality of sub-assemblies and plastic parts in the Automotive and Aerospace industries.

Seamless Supplier Integration

In the automotive sector, where dozens of components come from different suppliers, our Cubbings act as the physical gold standard. We ensure that all parts converge and assemble without interference.

// Perguntas Frequentes

Cubbings: FAQ

It is a physical structure, precisely machined, representing the exact geometry of a vehicle or assembly's mounting zone. It serves to test whether actual parts fit perfectly in their definitive location.
Yes. All tooling developed by our engineering division is subsequently validated in our metrology laboratory (using CMMs), and delivered to the customer with the respective dimensional certification report.
A Checking Fixture focuses on validating the geometric tolerances of a single part. Cubing has a systemic approach: it validates how that part interacts, fits, and aligns (gap & flush) with adjacent components of the final assembly.

Do you need to validate the assembly of a critical sub-assembly?
