Fixtures--the component or assembly that holds a part undergoing machining--must be designed to fit the shape of that part and the type of machining being done. This book discusses the fundamentals of Computer-Aided Fixture Design (CAFD) techniques and covers fixture planning, fixture design (both modular and dedicated fixtures), fixture design verifications, and the overall integration with CAD/CAM. The book shows how CAFD may lead to a significant reduction of product and process development time and production cost, and how CAFD can increase quality assurance through simulation and science-based technical specification and cost estimation in business quoting, especially in current supplier-based manufacturing. It also provides case study examples.

Zielgruppe

Containing hundreds of references, drawings, photographs and equations, the book will be a versatile reference for mechanical, manufacturing, industrial, and software engineers, and and an excellent text for advanced undergraduate and post graduate students as well as trainees of continuous education students in these disciplines.
