Founded in 2003 in Westerbork The Netherlands, GeTech specialises in the design, manufacture and measurement of check fixtures (gauges), primarily for the automotive industry. GeTech manufactures different types of fixtures, such as bend fixtures, assembly fixtures, CMM fixtures and fixtures for prototypes. Materials used are mainly aluminium, stainless steel, brass and plastic. Depending on the requirements of the customer, the material can be anodised and tempered. These check fixtures are, amongst others, designed for tube related parts, such as airco systems, brake and fuel lines, power steering and fuel injections systems. After approval of the design by the customer, the fixtures are produced in-house with high quality CNC machines, programmed with CAD/CAM. When assembled, the fixtures are measured with a 3D coordinate measuring machine. The customer is provided with a measurement report according to their own specification. Our process is ISO 9001 certified. An advantage of having engineering, production as well as measurement in-house is that we can be very flexible and we can therefore easily adapt to last minute changes and quickly implement improvements in our processes. Innovation is one of our key factors. Recently, we have developed a sensor check assembly fixture. With this new sensor check fixture the customer is able to audit their products even more accurately. The fixture checks the accuracy of the form / curves, the fittings and fasteners. The position and the type of tube is also checked. When the result of all checks is positive, the sensor lights are turned off and the operating software sends a signal to a printer for approval to print a label.
