Fixture Planning for Multi-Workpiece Setup for Make-to-Order Industry
Keywords:
fixture planning, modular fixture, 3-2-1 pin locationAbstract
An alternative method to reduce setup time is to simultaneously carry out fixture planning for several parts in one setup plan. This is possible due to the size of the parts, which are relatively small compared to the size of the machine work bed, typically found in a make-to-order industry. This research proposes a fixture planning method for multi-workpiece setups. The fixture planning method comprised two stages: 1) multi-workpiece layout; and 2) 3-2-1 pin location. An example of a multiple workpiece setup is illustrated in this paper to point out the method's applicability. Future research activity will integrate the proposed collaborative human-robot assembly design system method.
