There are many important meanings of machine tool fixture in machining. This paper will briefly introduce four points, analyze the relevant information for you, and let you know more about machine tool fixture. For details, please refer to this article.
Ensure machining accuracy
By using fixture installation, the mutual position of workpiece, machine tool and cutter can be accurately determined. The position accuracy of workpiece is guaranteed by fixture, which is not affected by the technical level of workers. Its machining accuracy is high and stable.
Improve productivity and reduce costs
Using fixture to clamp workpieces can make workpieces locate and clamp quickly without alignment, which can significantly reduce the auxiliary working hours; using fixture to clamp workpieces can improve the rigidity of workpieces, so it can increase the cutting amount; using multi-piece and multi position fixture to clamp workpieces, and using efficient clamping mechanism, these factors are conducive to improving labor productivity. In addition, after using fixture, the product quality is stable, the rate of waste products is reduced, and workers with lower technical level can be arranged, which significantly reduces the production cost.
Expand the technological range of machine tools
The use of special fixture can change the use of the original machine tool and expand the scope of use of the machine tool, so as to realize multiple functions of one machine. For example, after the jig is installed on the lathe or radial drilling machine, the hole system of the box body can be bored; through the special jig, the lathe can also be changed into a broaching machine to give full play to the role of the general machine tool.
Reduce the labor intensity of workers
It is convenient and fast to clamp workpieces with clamps. When pneumatic and hydraulic clamping devices are used, the labor intensity of workers can be reduced.
