Design And Developement of Fixture for Casting Cylinder

Mechanical Engineering

Always when an component is to be machined, it has to be fitted in the chuck of the machine .When the chuck rotates at high speeds during machining, the lengthy components wobbles due to the eccentricity and low grip. Thus, a device is needed to properly locate the component even at very high speeds also known as “fixture”. A fixture facilitates the higher cutting rate ,thus increased production rates. It needs the clamps to hold the workpiece properly. Due to the fixture concentricity of the workpiece is obtained and thus the rejection due to eccentricity is reduced to some extent. At the time of component mounting, the loading time required gets less by the use of fixture and thus saving time. In this new era of high production rates, the fixture helps to achieve the targets to some extent. Ultimately the economy is achieved as the profit increases a day. This way the fixture is used to increase the clamping perfection.
