Keywords:
Fixture Design, Machining Operation, Cycle Time, Hydraulic fixture, VMC-640Abstract
The automotive industry has been experiencing a competitive environment and striving hard to find methods to reduce manufacturing
cost, waste and improve quality. The ultimate goal is to speed up the process there by increasing productivity with quality through a
proper utilization of man and machine.
The problems is by using SPM or Conventional machines to manufacture connecting rod it takes more effort and time consuming
process, also less accurate assembly of connecting rod sub-assembly. By replacing Special Purpose Machine with Vertical Machining
Centers it gives proper assembly of connecting rod at joint face with reducing operation and production time of connection rod
without disturbing its quality or rather to say with a better quality.
