About Fixture Design Pros
An engineering firm built on one idea: designs should be made to be manufactured.
Our mission
We help manufacturers get fixtures, tooling and structures that work the first time and cost no more to build than they should. We do it by designing for manufacturing from the first sketch.
Founded by a fixture designer with years of in-plant manufacturing experience.
What we do
Fixture design, tooling design, 80/20-style T-slot framing and safety structures, prototyping and simulation, from concept to released drawings. Based in Detroit, Michigan.
How we work with you
You work directly with the engineer doing the design. We start by understanding the job, review it for manufacturability, and keep you updated at clear milestones. Deliverables come in standard, neutral formats that open in any CAD system: STEP models (Parasolid or IGES on request), PDF drawings with GD&T, and a bill of materials (BOM).
What we value
DFM first
Every feature has to earn its place.
Clear communication
Plain answers, regular updates, no surprises.
On-time delivery
Realistic schedules, and we keep them.
Confidentiality
Your designs are used only for your project.
