  Applications such as in defense sector, manufacturing of grenade fuse required angular holes on fuse body, producing holes in turbine blades for the aerospace industry, generating micro-holes in diesel fuel injection nozzles etc requires angular drilling. Trepanning, gun drilling are the operations available for drilling at specific angle, but they can be useful when drilling angle should be less than 10 degree. The job having a cylindrical shape and number of holes are required on it at an angle is challenging task for design engineer and hence Computer Aided Fixture Design (CAFD) is incorporated in manufacturing industry. It deals with the integration of CAD and CNC programming in CAM systems using softwares for fixture design. Except V block, no other option is available to hold cylindrical object and hence special type of fixture is designed for t.. View More»
