5-AXIS CNC WORKHOLDING
Modular pyramid fixtures for multi-sided 5-axis CNC machining, designed to increase part accessibility, support multiple workpieces, and simplify repeatable workholding setups.
Explore 5-Axis Workholding Guide →5-AXIS WORKHOLDING SOLUTIONS
ZPP 5-axis pyramid fixtures are designed for CNC machining applications that require access to multiple sides of a workpiece. By arranging multiple workholding stations around a compact fixture structure, pyramid fixtures support multi-sided machining while reducing repeated repositioning.
Different configurations are available for compact parts, multi-part machining, and higher-density production. Combined with zero point workholding, these fixtures support repeatable positioning and fast fixture changes.

FAQ
A 5-axis pyramid fixture is a workholding structure that positions one or multiple workpieces around multiple faces or stations, allowing a 5-axis machining center to reach more sides of the parts within a compact setup.
It is used for multi-sided CNC machining, multi-part production, and applications where tool access and fixture density are important considerations.
A 3-station fixture provides three machining stations, while a 4-station fixture provides four. More stations can increase parts-per-cycle, while a smaller station count can provide a more compact rotating envelope.
Yes. ZPP pyramid fixtures are designed to work with matching zero point interfaces, allowing the fixture to be located and changed using a standardized reference.
5-axis fixture is a broad category covering different workholding designs for 5-axis machining. A pyramid fixture is one specific multi-face or multi-station fixture architecture within that category.
Start with workpiece size, required number of parts per cycle, zero point pitch, rotary travel and available tool clearance. Then compare TS52, TS96 and circular configurations against your machine envelope.
Yes. Multi-station pyramid fixtures can hold multiple workpieces in one setup, making them useful when machining several parts or multiple sides of parts in a single cycle.
