Design of Fixture Machining

Date : 21 to 23 May, 2024   Location / Mode : Bengaluru

INTRODUCTION

The course is designed with the intent of bringing greater insight into fixtures and their application across all manufacturing processes. Comprehensive learning on fixtures for machining is the main focus of the programme. Machining fixtures are most complex in nature due to customer's stringent requirements from the part accuracy (both dimensional and geometrical) and productivity point of view. Basics of fixture design, if not implemented correctly results in poor productivity & quality problems. Set-up time and cycle time reduction, increased accuracy on components, de-skilling the job setting operation are the obvious advantages of a good fixture. Competence in the right fixture differentiates excellent organizations. 

Complete fundamentals and the process of fixture design are described from concept to final design in the programme. Pre-design activities like design input, conceptualization, process planning, accuracy consideration, cycle time estimation, POKA YOKE, 3D modeling of parts and assembly are demonstrated systematically with case studies. It will be highly interactive and covers an entire 360° view of all fixtures.

Keeping this in view, IMTMA is organizing a training program on the Development of Machining fixtures - A practical Approach.
