Abstract:
A Fixture is a device that must be able to
position, hold support the workpiece throughout machining
operation. When number of parts to be machined is large,
fixture provide time saving criterion to locate work for
accurate machining operations. Various areas related to
design of fixture are well illustrated by many scholars but
there is need to couple the research with the industrial
application to put the matter in practice. This paper aims to
provide sufficient condition to establish correct relation to
workpiece and fixture in terms of positioning and locating
work with the machine tool to have fine dimensional
accuracy. The cast component, roller stand is main part of
cutting machine. The major operation to be performed are
boring and milling slot. The real time criteria are to bore
exact hole and slot with respect to each other with
dimensional accuracy within limit. The research work
include 3D assembled and exploded view of fixture and its
components using Cero Elements and AutoCAD 2012 in
addition to detail & Assembly drawing
