Abstract
Workpiece clamping systems (WPCS) constitute core elements of machining systems. As part of the force flow and accuracy path, WPCS influence the performance and efficiency of the manufacturing processes. By functional integration, enhanced capability can be introduced to the machining system. Monitoring, active adjustment and process control can be achieved. The layout, design and optimisation of WPCS should be an integrated element in process planning. For this, computer aided support systems are available. Modelling of WPCS enables virtual analyses of process-workpiece-fixture interaction and makes optimisation possible. This paper gives an overview of the technology of WPCS and introduces future perspectives.
