Consulting on fixture design, maintenance, automation

In large-scale and mass production, the main requirement is mechanization and automation using fixtures, which are self-designed systems based on products to improve productivity and reduce labor. Using many multi-position, semi-automatic and automatic fixtures, continuous processing, automatic indexing and clamping …

The task of fixtures

– Determine the position of the workpiece relative to the machine and cutting tool (positioning).

– Fix the position of the positioned part, preventing external forces from moving or vibrating (clamping).

– Determine the position and guide the cutting tool.

– Create some additional movements to process complex surfaces.

Requirements and uses of fixtures?

- The structure of the fixture must be suitable for the purpose (specialized fixtures should have a simple structure)

- The fixture must ensure the accuracy of the detail

- Using the fixture must be convenient (easy and quick to set up...) and safe
