A fixture references the cutting tool, in this case with a set block.
Jigs
DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
The principal considerations when choosing among work holder varieties fall into three
general categories: tooling cost, tooling details, and tooling operation. Although each of these
categories is separated here, in practice they are interdependent. The following are some design
differences and considerations for permanent, general-purpose, and modular work holders.
Tooling Costs
The total cost of any jig or fixture is frequently the major area of consideration in many
work holder designs. Although initial cost is a major element, it should not be the basis for
accepting or rejecting any tooling option.
A more-proper economic evaluation of the work holder design takes into consideration
many other factors. As discussed previously, permanent fixtures have distinct advantages in the
production of high-volume and high-precision parts. They also typically reduce machine setup
time, machine cycle time, and the level of operator skill required to produce satisfactory quality

. A combination drill jig/milling fixture used for both types of operations on the same part.
Other machine considerations may come into play as well. On numerically controlled
machines, for example, care must be taken in fixture design to position clamps out of the cutting
tool's path. Pallet machines require different fixtures than other machines. Obviously, vertical
mills would be tooled differently than horizontal mills. Likewise, the way parts are loaded onto
the fixture has implications for fixture design.

Angle-plate fixture
The angle-plate fixture is a variation of the plate fixture. With this tool, the part is
Normally machined at a right angle to its locator.
Duplex fixtures
Profiling fixtures
Profiling fixtures are used to guide tools for machining contours that the machine
cannot normally follow. These contours can be either internal or external. Since the
fixture continuously contacts the tool, an incorrectly cut shape is almost impossible. The
operation in Figure shows how the cam is accurately cut by maintaining contact
between the fixture and the bearing on the milling cutter. This bearing is an important
part of the tool and must always be used.
.
MILLING FIXTURE
Milling Fixtures
Milling fixtures are the most common type of fixture in general use today.
The simplest type of milling fixture is a milling vise mounted on the machine table.
However, as the work piece size, shape, or complexity becomes more sophisticated, so
too must the fixture.
The design should permit as many surfaces of the part to be machined as possible.
Without removing the part.
Whenever possible, the tool should be changed to suit the part. Moving the part to
accommodate one cutter for several operations is not as accurate or as efficient as
changing cutters.
Locators must be designed to resist all tool forces and thrusts. Clamps should not be
used to resist tool forces.
Clearance space or sufficient room must be allotted to provide adequate space to change
cutters or to load and unload the part.
Milling fixtures should be designed and built with a low profile to prevent unnecessary
twisting or springing while in operation.
The entire work piece must be located within the area of support of the fixture. In those
cases where this is either impossible or impractical, additional supports, or jacks, must
be provided.
Chip removal and coolant drainage must be considered in the design of the fixture.
Sufficient space should be permitted to allow the chips to be easily removed with a
brush.
Set blocks or cutter setting gages must be provided in the fixture design to aid the
operator in properly setting up the tool in production.
Lathe Fixtures
Similar to the design of milling fixtures.
In milling, the work piece is stationary and the cutting tool revolves. In turning
operations, the work piece revolves and the cutting tool is stationary.
Tool designer must deal with-centrifugal force. The complete fixture must be designed
and constructed to resist the effects of the rotational, or centrifugal, forces present in the
turning.
Since lathe fixtures are designed to rotate, they should be as lightweight as possible.
Lathe fixtures must be balanced. While perfect balance is not normally required for
slow-speed turning operations, high rotational speeds require the fixture to be wellbalanced.
Projections and sharp corners should be avoided since these areas will become almost
invisible as the tool rotates and they could cause serious Injury
The part should be positioned in the fixture so that most of the machine operation can be
performed in the first fixturing.
Clamps should be positioned on surfaces, or areas, which are rigid before and after
machining.
As with other fixtures, some means of cutter setting should also be incorporated into the
design. However, since the work holder will be rotating, this setting device should be
removed.
Whenever possible, standard lathe accessories should be adapted in the design of turning
fixtures. Lathe faceplates are an ideal method to mount large fixtures. Likewise, a
standard lathe chuck, or collets, can and should be modified for many fixturing
applications.
Surface grinding fixtures are similar in design to milling fixtures, but made to much
closer tolerances. Whenever practical, use magnetic chucks to hold the work piece.
Provide adequate room or slots to permit the escape of coolant and to allow easy
removal of built-up grinding sludge.
Provide coolant containment devices or splash guards to keep the fixture from spilling
coolant on the floor around the machine. Fixture elements which are in contact with the
magnetic chuck should be made from ferrous materials. Include provisions for rapid
wheel dressing and truing in the design of the fixture, if not built into the machine. All
locators must be accurately and positively positioned.
Boring Fixtures
These fixtures differ from boring normally used for large parts with large holes where
the boring bar is rigid enough to provide additional support. A pilot bushing is not
needed.
Boring fixtures, like milling fixtures, should have some provision for setting the
position of the cutting tool relative to the part.
In cases where a boring fixture is to be used on a very large machine, such as a boring
mill or vertical turrets lathe it is also good practice to include areas on the fixture to
insure proper alignment with the machine.
FULCRUM PIN
A Lever is a rigid rod or bar capable of turning about a fixed point called fulcrum. or A shaft or
pin on which something turns.

In additions to the elements of time described above, the total time to perform an
operation includes a number of allowances like time for personal needs of the
operator, time for checking, time for tool sharpening etc.
Lathe:
The factors that govern machining time will be understood from a simple case of
machining. A steel rod has to be reduced in diameter from D1to D2 overall length L by
straight turning in a centre lathe.
TC= (Lc ( Ns0))xnp
Where
L=required length of cut
TC= cutting time
LC= actual length of cut
=L+A+O
A, O= approach and over run
Milling:
Milling time TC= (l+a) / F
Where
l is the length of work piece in the direction of feed
a is the approach length a=d (D -d)
d depth of cut in mm
D Diameter of milling cutter in mm (18mm carbide insert cutter)
F Table feed in mm/min (~100 mm/min)
Surface grinding:
Machining time t m = 2xLxBxi

L=l+ (2 x over travel)
Where,
L=grinding length in mm l
= length of work piece
i = number of cuts
V=Speed of table in m/min
S=lateral feed in mm/stroke
B=Width of work piece

Planning the sequence of operations for all the positions. The operations, which can be done
at our tool room.
Tool manufacturing:
Manufacturing of tool was started after receiving the material as per the operation sequence.
when it was machined using vernier caliper and micrometer etc .Finally after try-out, the job
was centrally inspected after visual inspection near the machine itself.
MACHINES UTILISED:
LATHE
MILLING MACHINE
DRILLING
SURFACE GRINDING
LATHE
The main function of lathe is to remove metal from a piece of work to give it the requires
shape and size. This is accomplished by holding the work securely and rigidly on the machine
and then turning it against cutting tool which will remove metal in the form of chips.
Operations involved:
Turning
Facing
Chamfering
Threading.
MILLING:
Milling machine is used for removing excess material from a work piece with a
Rotating cutting tool. The rotating cutting tool is called themillingcutter.The cutter rotates
at a high speed and because of the multipoint cutting edge it removes metal at a very fast rate.
The machine can also hold number of cutters at a time.
Milling process is used for producing flat ,contoured or helical surfaces, for cutting
thread and tooth edges and for making helical grooves.
Operations involved
Face milling
End milling
DRILLING:
Drilling machine is used to originate or cut a hole where none previously existed.
This is an extensively used machine for through or blind holes. The hole is produced by
axially feedingtherotatingdrillintotheworkpiecewhichisheldonthetableofthedrilling machine.
Operation involved
Drilling
Chamfering
GRINDING:
Grinding operation is a method of machining work pieces by use of rotary abrasive
Tool, called grinding wheel. The grinding operation can be rough
Grinding or finishing grinding (precision grinding).Rough grinding is a commonly used
method for removing excess material from castings, forgings etc.
Precision grinding is the principal production method of cutting materials that are too
hard to be machined by other conventional tools and a finer surface finish as compared to
other manufacturing method.

CONCLUSION:
The grinding fixture was successfully completed and assembled on. It
took three months for completion of the tool. All that was involved in the
project is good design, systematic work and the co-operation and coordination
from all staff members to me, which fetched outstanding result at the end.
Though we have taken all care to complete the project to the best of our
ability, some errors may have crept in due to over sight or ignorance or trial and
error methods .There is definitely scope for improvement in the different
aspects of this project.
It really persuades me to do more & more, perhaps in better ways in my
future. I take this opportunity to thank everyone, who contributed directly or
Indirectly to the success of my project.
