I have some parts that I routinely make and I use the same fixture each time. It's accurate and reliable but collects chips in some spots that if not removed won't allow the next part(s) to properly seat.
My machine has an air solenoid with plumbing to the enclosure. I'm wondering if I can use that along with some porting basically air blast the fixture for say .5s after the last op finishes.
Seems straightforward, but are there any pitfalls? Is this common in shops or does my fixture just suck?
