Research on the Design Method of Component-Based Modular Fixture

On the basis of the traditional assemble method of components modular fixture, the establishment of a component-based modular fixture design method was proposed in the paper. First of all, the concept of modular fixture components was put forward, and then the components according to different functions were classified, and the relationship table between the components and elements were established. At last of this paper, the application of this method was introduced through an instance. While designing fixture for part family, this method can utmost save design time and minimize the quantity of disassembling of combined fixture element, reduce the wear and tear of components, and shortening the time of manufacturing.
