3 Design and Development of Modular Fixture
3.1 Statement of Problem
“Design and manufacturing of modular fixture for machining platen of plastic injection molding machine. The major operations undertaken are leg facing, boring,
tapping, side milling and back facing. Two set up of fixtures are required to complete
all operations.”
3.2 Component Details
Die height platen made up of S. G. iron of plastic injection molding machine weighs
540 kg. 3D view of component is shown in Fig. 1.
The major operations undertaken in set up I fixture are as under:
1. Mounting leg
2. Making tooling hole for set up II fixture
3. Top and bottom facing
The major operations undertaken in set up II fixture are as under.
4. Boring (Stain rod bore, toggle bore and hug arm bore)
5. Facing on all sides
6. Side milling at hug arm bore.
