5/8" Tables Overview
A fast, accurate, and easy to use modular fixturing system. Enjoy fast setup replication and reduced project lead times in prototyping, short runs, and even large volume production runs.
BuildPro offers a complete line of heavy-duty tables for work holding in woodworking and metal fabrication. Featuring our tried and tested TM System, a professional line of work-holding tools used to clamp down and locate workpieces quickly and precisely.
Here we'll compare our three 5/8" welding table and fixturing systems. At the heart of each system lies a highly accurate and precisely machined steel table frame, engineered for precision and rigidity. The three systems we offer are the ALPHA 5/8, a premier line providing five usable fixture surfaces, the top and four sides; the MAX line, akin to the Alpha 5/8 but with a focus on the top surface only, without side fixture plates; and finally, the MAX SLOTTED featuring a 1.7" gap between fixture plates to accommodate clamps or "t-slot" adapters that facilitates seamless positioning of clamping tools. All tables are available in various sizes and leg options, including height-adjustable legs and add-on casters for enhanced mobility. Let's explore these game-changing systems and discover how they can improve your manufacturing capabilities.
Alpha 5/8 TablesAlpha 5/8 is Heavy duty 5-sided table with 5/8" diameter boreholes, combined with our patent-exclusive, reversible, and replaceable top and side plates. All top plates are constructed from heat-treated steel, hardened to 550 Vickers, and finished with a nitrite coating with a case depth of .0004-.0008″. |
MAX TablesOur single-sided heavy-duty tables feature boreholes on the top surface with patented self-locating and reversible table top plates. MAX tables are available in standard and nitrided tabletop finishes. |
MAX SLOTTED TablesThe slotted tables feature open gaps between the top plates. Providing extra versatility, allowing you to slide clamping tools or pliers using T-Slot adapters or Sliding Channel on the open slot edges as clamping surfaces. MAX SLOTTED tables are available in standard and nitrided tabletop finishes. |

How to calculate "Table Surface Height"?
Example 1 : TMA57846
Slotted 6-1/2′ x 4′ table with Heavy Duty Legs
Example 2 : TMRC59648F
MAX 8′ x 4′ table with Adjustable Legs and Casters
* For Stationary Scissor Lift Platforms & HD Ergonomic Height-Adjustable Lift Platforms, ADD the 6-1/4” BuildPro® Tabletop height to the heights shown for each platform model.
What people say about us:
Very very well made! Super precise tolerances, clean and ready to be used. Just slap the legs on and off we go! Would recommend!
Kasey S (Gainesville, GA)
Really fast and accurate setup for square joints - big time saver in setup and by minimizing repairs to poor welds.
Dan L (EMI)
Has improved prototype building to a make sure parts are welded accordingly.
