Comparison Of Machining Performance Using Self-Developed Portable Vacuum Clamping System

Usually instruments or holding equipment such as vise are used to clamp the piece of job. Due to the low stiffness of the workpiece during machining, thin wall components have always been a challenge to clamp. This study aims to compare the effect of machining performance using self-developed portab...

This study is to evaluate the work-ability of SPVCS; two process of machining process had been tested. Experiments were conducted on acrylic to end mill machining and engrave machining with parameters selected to cut. To analyses the result for end mill process, systematic measurement of process response parameters in terms of surface roughness had been conducted. The surface roughness was analyzed to observe the influence of process parameters on the suction vacuum clamp during machining.

The result showed that vacuum clamping contributed in better surface roughness with average value of 0.585μm for continuously pressure method and 0.663μm for remain pressure method for end mill process.
