Designing a Checking Jig for Sheet Metal Hole Positions After Bending

[vutuankhanh]

I'm designing a jig to check hole distances on bent sheet metal parts.
For small batches, calipers work. But for mass production, it's slow and tiring.
I need a fixture you can just drop the part into and instantly know if the holes are in spec.
Any ideas for a smart, fast-checking jig design?
Thanks for sharing!

Usually for holes you need a gage that represents the "virtual condition" of the holes. But for more detailed and precise answer you need to show how the holes are dimensioned and toleranced. Can you embed an snip from the actual drawing by using the picture icon (I tried downloading your attachments and one doesn't have the actual tolerances, and other one I have some trouble with).
