By emphasizing similarities among types and styles, Jig and Fixture
Design, 5th Edition speeds readers toward a complete understanding of the why's and how's
of designing and building a variety of different workholders for
manufacturing. From simple template and plate-type jigs to complex channel
and box-type tooling, this newly revised edition features more than 500
illustrations of tools and applications to spur readers to success. All-new
sections on assembly tools, handling tools, and catalog reading enable
readers to develop important skills.
Specific examples of various jigs and commercially available fixtures
also appear to guide readers in developing their understanding of how design
principles, as well as the latest design and manufacturing technologies, are
being applied in the construction of jigs and fixtures today. As in past
editions, heavy emphasis is placed on the economics of jigs and fixtures,
including methods and formulas for use in estimating workholder costs. A
solid background in industrial processes, as well as machine shop
technology, is assumed. 384 pp.
Features:
A variety of jig and fixture designs are presented from start to
finish, with detailed emphasis on design considerations and design
parameters
References to CAD and the application of CAD standards show readers
how to save time and enhance their productivity when designing jigs and
fixtures
Updated drawings incorporate current ASME Y14.5M-1994 (R1999)
