PRODUCT INFORMATION
I know, nah I will figure it out myself ;-) the Omnifixo is full of features and I don't want you to miss any, so please give me 20 sec.
LOW MODE Useful for microscopy or other work on PCB when its helpful to have a low working height and an object held horizontally. |
|
ULTRA PRECISE MODE For ultra precise work the "magnet upside down" provides less friction to the ball joint and thereby even increased precision. A SWITCH The magnetic foot also works like an electrical switch. Upside down it will connect to the surface it is attached to. If it is positioned on the etched "ring" on the base plate it is possible to measure or feed power through the base by connecting to the etched oval on the base plate (internal resistance ~5 Ohm). |
|
LEAN BACK MODE In this position the clamp can carry a lot of weight and the slider is parallel to the base and the jaws are vertical. |
|
CONNECT It is possible to attach a 6,3x0,8 mm (old car standard) cable lug to the clip if you need to feed, ground or measure something. |

THE NEW FIELD BOX
The field box has slots for the base so it can be used as a vertical stand, not sure when that will be helpful...;-)
INSERT Those slots can also be used to fit separators, files to print below insert is available here : https://makerworld.com/en/models/677236 . You could also cut separators from 1mm plastic or paper (distance between slots : 80 mm, 89mm and 159mm, the height is 10mm).
CAUTION
Don't heat up the feet's/magnets (e.g. put the product in a reflow oven) ABS plastics will melt and the magnets will be demagnetized.
The product is a tool and not a toy so keep away from small children, contains small small parts and magnets.
