Projects
Design of a fixture to be mounted on a welding positioner, The job to be welded is a triangular link. The link consists of three bores on which bosses are to be welded. Since welding positioner facilitates rotational welding at a maximum angle of 45 degrees to the normal of the plate, a special fixture is designed which allows welding of all holes in one working cycle. This fixture also helps in locating and constraining the job completely. Hence, the design of the fixture is efficient in terms of time required for welding and labour time on production line., Transmech Systems Pvt. Ltd., Baramati, Maharashtra, India
