Abstract

Fixtures play an important role within many manufacturing processes. They accurately locate and secure a work piece during machining such that the part can be manufactured to design specifications. Thus fixtures have a direct effect upon machining quality, productivity, and the cost of products. This report represents design and development of hydraulic fixture for real industrial component. The components are ALUMINIUM BRONZE CASTING PRODUCTS which are used in the electric machinery. The operations to be performed on castings are drilling, reaming & tapping on VMC (vertical machining center). The aim of this project is to design & develop a hydraulic fixture to save time for loading and unloading of component. The evaluated fixture uses hydraulic link clamp cylinder for holding the work piece driven by hydraulic power pack. Thus the fixture achieves automatic and simultaneous clamping of work pieces.

Keywords
