What are the advantages of hydraulic clamping
I believe that many enterprises are pursuing low cost, high output, reduce the loss of manual processing does not bring, to solve these problems, we must find the right method. Now many companies are still applying the traditional mechanical clamping method to processing, but do not know that this method has gradually in the backward, and is not conducive to the production of enterprises, now the fixture, can solve a lot of headaches for enterprises, fixture many types, today we do a hydraulic fixture compared to the traditional mechanical clamping this.
What are the advantages of using hydraulic clamps? The traditional mechanical clamping requires more cost in terms of manpower, while the hydraulic clamping has many advantages over the traditional mechanical clamping.
One of the advantages of using hydraulic clamping is that it saves the time required to clamp and unclamp the workpiece. Traditional mechanical clamps are labor intensive especially when using wrenches to turn nuts and move platens. However, hydraulic clamping requires complete sequential motion control of the clamps by controlling the flow of oil.
The second advantage of a hydraulic fixture system is that it allows for more accurate positioning.
The key to positioning accuracy is that the fixture force is more stable during positioning and fixturing, so the quality of machining of the same batch of machined parts remains consistent in the flow operation, reducing the problem of workpiece deformation caused by excessive force and reducing the product scrap rate. Batches of parts can be used interchangeably.
The third advantage of hydraulic clamping system is that when it is impossible to set rigid support or process thin-walled parts, hydraulic auxiliary support is a better choice.
It can produce support force for the workpiece at any position, which can be used as an auxiliary positioner to solve the problem of inaccurate positioning. Hydraulic clamping is more suitable for machining parts with compact placement and limited space for manual clamping.
Clamping the workpiece with hydraulic clamps, the workpiece can be quickly positioned and clamped without correcting, which significantly reduces the auxiliary work time (time for loading and unloading workpieces); clamping the workpiece with hydraulic clamps improves the rigidity of the workpiece, so the cutting amount can be increased; multiple pieces and multi-station clamps can be used to clamp the workpiece, and efficient clamping mechanism is adopted, which are all factors conducive to improving labor productivity and safety. In addition, after adopting the fixture, the product quality is stable, the scrap rate decreases, and the batch nature is excluded. Workers with lower skill levels can be arranged, effectively reducing production costs.
The use of special hydraulic jigs can change the use of the original machine tool and expand the scope of use of the machine tool, to achieve a multi-purpose machine. For example, in the lathe or rocker drilling machine after the installation of boring die fixture, it can be on the box hole system for boring processing; through the special fixture can also be used to change the lathe into a broaching machine, in order to give full play to the role of general-purpose machine tools, in the machining center within the effective range of travel effectively expand the number of parts processed.
