A flexible positioning fixture is a system assembled from a prefabricated set of standardized, serialized components and parts of various shapes, sizes and functionalities.
These flexible components and fastening parts have good interchangeability, high precision and durability.
I. Flexible positioning device: multifunctional modular components
Flexible positioning devices can be used individually or in combination with other components, and the proportion of their multifunctional modular units will continue to increase.
For example, the various positioning and clamping seats, positioning and pressure brackets, precision lathes and other modular units currently in use have comprehensive positioning, clamping and adjustment functions.
They can be used individually or assembled together. T-shaped bases and square boxes can be mounted on flexible fixtures that can hold multiple identical or different parts at the same time.
Using these accessories can reduce machine tool downtime and maximize the high efficiency of CNC machine tools and machining centers.
II. High strength, high rigidity, high precision
To improve work productivity and reduce part processing time, machining has evolved towards high speed and large cutting volume, with highly concentrated processes. After a workpiece is positioned and clamped, it needs to sequentially complete several processes such as milling, drilling and boring.
The size and direction of the cutting force are constantly changing, which requires the flexible positioning device itself to have high strength and rigidity in use to meet the machining precision of the workpiece.
III. Integration of dedicated luminaires, combination luminaires and group luminaires
The multifunctionality of modern processing equipment requires a highly concentrated technological process, where a part can perform multiple operations after being clamped and positioned once. This requires a universal, reusable and adjustable welding fixture system.
This system consists of a series of uniform and standardized components and parts, which can be assembled into various shapes, structures and reusable accessories for single-piece or small and medium batch production.
This luminaire system maintains the many advantages of combinational luminaires, with assembly as simple and reliable as dedicated luminaires and adjustable components while preserving the benefits of group luminaires.
To facilitate flexible positioning of the fixture and machine tool, the fixture base has a standardized positioning connection location, promoting the development for integration and combination of dedicated, combinational and group fixtures to meet the needs of modern processing equipment .
4. Fast and automated part clamping
To reduce auxiliary time in processing parts and reduce worker labor intensity, the installation and disassembly of parts requires mechanization and automation.
Part clamping has evolved from single-function compression and clamping components to adjustable modules for rapid assembly and clamping. For large batch parts processing, hydraulic and pneumatic fittings can achieve rapid and automated clamping.
