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.
