Abstract

The main purpose of the research paper is to explain the working of the machining fixture for a component named Shifting Fork
on a "CNC Vertical Machining Center (VMC)" ,optimize the cycle time and determine the dimensions of tools for machining
operation done on component. The main requirement of the fixture is to hold the work piece during machining operations and to
produce uniform products.The component is a raw material which is of the Die casting Aluminium. The number of operations
performed on the component are six such as boring , slotting , chamfering , drilling, reaming & facing. Firstly four operation are
done on component at a time than after revolving the turning table to 900
another three operation are carried out . All operations
are done in one fixture.
