TPGC040078 fixture Germany goudsmit model TPGC040078 in stock

The TPGC040078 fixture is a device that holds an object to manipulate it. It can grip and release the object while performing certain actions. Motion devices often mimic human movements; in the case of grippers, they mimic finger movements. The "fingers" themselves are not part of the gripper; they are specialized custom tools for holding objects, called "jaws." Two main gripping actions: External gripping: This is the most common method for holding objects. It is the simplest and requires the shortest stroke length. When the gripper jaws close, the clamping force applied by the gripper holds the object. Internal gripping: In some applications, due to the geometry of the object or the need to access the exterior of the object, it is necessary to grip the object from the center. In this case, the gripper holds the object through expansion force.

TPGC040078 Fixture Classification

1) Lathe fixtures: Fixtures used on lathes to machine the internal and external rotary surfaces and end faces of workpieces are called lathe fixtures. Most lathe fixtures are mounted on the spindle, and a few are mounted on the saddle or bed. 2) CMM fixtures: Used on coordinate measuring machines, utilizing modular support and reference devices to achieve flexible fixation of the measured workpiece. This device can be automatically programmed to support the workpiece and establish an unlimited number of workpiece configuration reference points. Advanced dedicated software can directly generate the workpiece clamping program within seconds based on the geometric data of the workpiece. 3) Industrial robot fixtures: All mounted on industrial robots for use in industrial automation equipment, representing one of the new technologies in modern industrial automation equipment. They mainly appear in modern industrial production in conjunction with robots, with common applications including automated unmanned factories for machine tool loading/unloading, workpiece palletizing/depalletizing, welding, grinding, etc. 4) Milling machine fixtures: All mounted on the milling machine table, moving with the table during feed motion. They mainly consist of positioning devices, clamping devices, fixture bodies, connecting elements, and tool-setting elements. During milling, the cutting force is large and the cutting is intermittent, resulting in significant vibration. Therefore, milling machine fixtures require high clamping force, and high stiffness and strength are required. 5) Bearing housing fixtures: To ensure and improve the production quality of bearing housings, in addition to using machine tools and other mechanical equipment, a large amount of process equipment is used, including bearing housing fixtures, molds, cutting tools, and related auxiliary tools. A bearing housing fixture is a production tool specifically designed to ensure the product quality of bearing housings, making the production process more convenient. Different bearing housing fixtures vary in structure, form, operating conditions, and design principles, resulting in a wide variety of types and styles, accounting for a significant proportion in both quantity and variety. This type of bearing housing fixture can accurately determine the relative position between the workpiece and the tool, i.e., it can clamp the workpiece to be machined, thereby completing the motions required during the machining process. Since bearing housing fixtures play a very important role in the bearing housing production process, the drafting of bearing housing fixture designs is also very important.

TPGC040078 Fixture Applications

A fixture is a process device used to quickly secure a workpiece during machining, maintaining the correct relative positions of the machine tool, cutting tool, and workpiece. In other words, the Workholding tooling fixture is an indispensable component in mechanical machining. Driven by the development of machine tool technology towards high speed, high efficiency, precision, complexity, intelligence, and environmental friendliness, fixture technology is evolving towards high precision, high efficiency, modularity, combinability, universality, and cost-effectiveness. Fixtures are also known as clamps. Broadly speaking, any device used to quickly, conveniently, and safely install a workpiece in any process step can be called a fixture. Examples include welding fixtures, inspection fixtures, assembly fixtures, and machine tool fixtures. Among these, machine tool fixtures are the most common and are often simply referred to as fixtures. When machining a workpiece on a machine tool, to ensure that the surface of the workpiece meets the technical requirements specified in the drawing, such as dimensions, geometric shape, and mutual positional accuracy with other surfaces, the workpiece must be properly positioned (location) and securely clamped (clamping) before machining. The application of machine tool fixtures helps ensure machining accuracy and stabilize product quality; helps improve labor productivity and reduce costs; helps improve working conditions and ensure safe production; and helps expand the process range of machine tools, achieving "multi-purpose use of one machine." A fixture typically consists of positioning elements (to determine the correct position of the workpiece in the fixture), clamping devices, tool-setting/guiding elements (to determine the relative position of the tool and workpiece or guide the tool direction), indexing devices (to allow the workpiece to complete machining at several stations in one installation, including rotary indexing devices and linear movement indexing devices), connecting elements, and the fixture body (fixture base). Fixtures are also widely used in electronics manufacturers. In production, to improve production efficiency and product quality, tooling fixtures are commonly used in the middle and later stages for functional testing or auxiliary assembly (to assemble fixed shapes and heights, etc.). Their actual use in electronic manufacturing plants is very extensive. Since they are non-standard custom-made, the possibilities are limited only by imagination.

TPGC040078 Fixture Selection

When selecting pneumatic grippers and jaw designs, these are the main factors to consider: 1) Part shape, orientation, and dimensional variations: If the object has two opposing flat surfaces, a parallel two-jaw gripper can be used to address dimensional deviations. For cylindrical objects, a two-jaw gripper can also be used for gripping. Note that containment or enveloping grips require less force. 2) Part weight: The gripping force must be sufficient to hold the object securely while performing the required operations. The type of jaw design must be considered when calculating the required gripping force. Please note that safety factors should be considered when selecting the required force, and air pressure is also a factor to note. 3) Accessibility: This relates both to the operation being performed and the spatial requirements of the gripper jaws. If work needs to be performed on the exterior of the object, internal gripping is required. Scissor-style grippers are usually less expensive but require more space for jaw movement. 4) Environment: Grippers used in harsh environments or cleanrooms require appropriate designs. 5) Object retention: When air pressure is no longer supplied, the gripper will release its hold on the object, causing it to drop. For such applications, spring-assisted grippers can be used.
