One of our most active areas in JHA&R is in the design, manufacture and commissioning of machine tool fixturing. With an experienced team of specialist designers, project managers and engineers, JHA&R has a strong track record of implementing high quality fixture and process solutions to customers throughout the world.
The reasons for our success:
- The initial consultation is with the experienced engineers.
- We study and understand customer’s part holding requirements, including viewing the casting process and identifying key location points.
- We ensure the chosen tooling supplier “buys in” to the project.
- We review cutting forces and ensure all selected clamps exceed the minimum required forces.
- We consider future proofing the design so that the fixture can in future accommodate improved tooling and machines.
- We model the entire machine envelope and all tooling in 3D CAD.
- We model the complete fixture in 3D CAD including all hydraulic pipes, air pipes and fittings.
- We design for easy maintenance including ensuring common screws and fixture accessibility.
- Where possible all hydraulics are internally ported for ease of assembly and greater swarf control.
- All aspects of the fixture design including part loading, pre-location, part handling are reviewed by the customer prior to manufacture.
- We simulate in 3D the part and tool clearances.
- We simulate all CNC programs, check for collisions and form base programs for commissioning.
- Our commissioning is performed by experienced machine tool engineers who specialise in part machining, part measurement and project commissioning.
- We deliver on time and on budget.
