The two-dimensional welding flexible workbench is the basic platform of the three-dimensional flexible combined tooling and fixture system. It is divided into two series: D28 and D16. The hole spacing of the D28 series platform is 100mm, and the plane is engraved with 100×100 grid lines. The hole spacing of the D16 series platform is 50mm, the plane is engraved with 50×50 grid lines to facilitate visual inspection of the workpiece. According to customer requirements, millimeter scales can be carved on the two right-angled sides of the platform. The table top adopts the form of grid holes. The platform size can also be customized according to actual needs.
A Two-dimensional flexible welding workbench is a highly precise and adaptable work surface designed specifically for welding and fabrication tasks. Featuring a flat top with a grid pattern of holes or slots, it allows for the rapid, accurate setup and secure clamping of components in a two-dimensional plane. This system, often referred to as a Modular welding table, significantly enhances welding accuracy, repeatability, and overall workshop efficiency by providing a stable, configurable foundation for complex assemblies.
The name itself highlights its key characteristics. “Two-dimensional” refers to the flat work surface (X and Y axes) where components are positioned and secured using the integrated grid system. “Flexible” emphasizes the adaptability provided by this grid; using various clamps, bolts, stops, and angles inserted into the holes or slots, users can create custom jigs and fixtures for virtually any project quickly. This adaptability makes it far superior to traditional flat tables for intricate work.
Understanding the components is key to appreciating the value of a Two-dimensional flexible welding workbench.
The heart of the system is the tabletop. Typically crafted from high-strength steel (like S355JR steel), it often undergoes processes like plasma nitriding. This surface treatment provides excellent hardness (up to 750 Vickers), corrosion resistance, and significantly reduces weld spatter adhesion. The defining feature is the precision grid of holes (commonly Ø16mm or Ø28mm) or slots, machined to tight tolerances (e.g., ±0.05mm for hole position). Equally critical is the surface flatness, often specified within tenths of a millimeter across the entire table (e.g., flatness tolerance of 0.1mm/1000mm), ensuring accurate assembly – making it a true Precision welding table.
This workbench truly shines as a Welding fixture table thanks to its clamping system. The grid pattern is designed to accept a wide array of specialized tooling:
The modularity of this Welding clamping table system allows for infinite configurations, saving significant time compared to building dedicated jigs for each job.
A robust frame and leg system are essential to support heavy components and withstand the rigors of a fabrication environment. Legs are often constructed from heavy-gauge steel tubing and may feature adjustable feet for leveling on uneven floors or heavy-duty casters (with locking mechanisms) for mobility within the workshop. Load capacity is a critical specification, indicating the maximum weight the table can safely support.
Integrating a Two-dimensional flexible welding workbench into your workflow offers substantial benefits:

Hole size:
φ28 series platform: The hole tolerance is D10 level, and the locking pin matching the platform is H7 level. The distance between two adjacent holes is 100±0.05mm
φ16 series platform: The hole tolerance is D10 level, and the locking pin matching the platform is H7 level. The distance between two adjacent holes is 50±0.05mm.
There are three types of workbench columns: height (three types) with a load-bearing capacity of 2t, fixed (frame type) with a load-bearing capacity of 5t, movable (lifting type with a load-bearing capacity of 3t), (spindle type with brakes with a load-bearing capacity of 1t).
The precision and flexibility of these workbenches make them invaluable in various sectors:
Selecting the appropriate table depends on your specific requirements. Consider these factors:
Factor | Considerations | Example Options / Specs |
---|---|---|
Table Size | Match workspace and typical project dimensions. | 1000x1000mm, 1200x800mm, 1500x1000mm, 2000x1000mm, 2400x1200mm, etc. |
Grid System | Hole diameter (compatibility with tooling) and spacing (fixturing density). | Ø16mm holes on 50mm grid, Ø28mm holes on 100mm grid. Some tables feature slots. |
Material & Finish | Durability, spatter resistance, hardness. | High-strength Steel (e.g., S355JR), Plasma Nitrided surface. |
Load Capacity | Ensure it can handle the weight of your typical workpieces and fixtures. | 500kg, 1000kg, 2000kg+ depending on size and construction. |
Accuracy Specs | Table flatness, hole position tolerance. Critical for precision work. | Flatness: <0.1mm/m, Hole Tolerance: ±0.05mm. |
Accessory Ecosystem | Availability and range of compatible clamps, stops, angles. | Check manufacturer’s catalog (industry resources like AWS can provide context). |
To keep your Two-dimensional flexible welding workbench in optimal condition:
In conclusion, the Two-dimensional flexible welding workbench is more than just a table; it’s a sophisticated system engineered for precision, flexibility, and efficiency. By investing in a quality system and utilizing its capabilities effectively, fabricators can significantly improve the quality of their work, reduce production time, and enhance overall workshop productivity.
