Abstract

Textbook presenting the fundamentals of tool design with special focus on jigs, fixtures and die design Covers sections on sheet metal forming processes; turning, grinding, broaching, welding and modular fixtures; principles of clamping; and an Introduction to Presses and Auxiliary Equipment Author has many years’ experience in both academic and industrial environments, and presents this work in an easily-accessible style End of chapter questions and answers assist the learning process for both practicing tooling designers and engineers, and manufacturing engineering students.

Jigs and Fixtures are production devices that increase the rate of manufacturing. This highly useful book for Design and Production engineers provides:

• Detailed discussions on the basic principles of tool design

• Checkpoints for common errors in design

• Large number of component drawings for practice

• Guidelines on surface grinding layouts

• Important standards for elements of jigs and Fixtures

What's new in this edition

The primary focus of this edition is on Numerically Controlled (NC)/Computerized Numerical Control (CNC) machines and different practical problems faced by professionals in design shops. The book also contains

• Solutions to the problem of broken drills in deep angular oil holes

• Pitfalls to be avoided while locating castings and forgings

• Case study on drilling scores of linear holes with equal pitch

• Construction details of large jigs

• Modular fixture concepts

• Slitless hydraulic collets and expanding mandrels

The book contains over 250 illustrations, including 2D/3D views of different jigs.

Jigs and Fixtures is an indispensable reference for design and production engineers on the shop floor. The students of production engineering will also find this book very useful.
