Question

Why tensions are provided at the bottom of base plate of milling fixture?

A.

For guiding the tool

B.

For clamping purpose

C.

For balancing workpiece

D.

For proper location of fixture

Correct option is D


In milling fixtures, tensions (relief slots or recesses) are provided at the bottom of the base plate to ensure proper location and stability of the fixture. These tensions help in positioning and aligning the fixture accurately on the machine table. This ensures that the fixture sits firmly and correctly without rocking, leading to precision in machining.
Without these tensions, the fixture may not rest properly, affecting dimensional accuracy and potentially causing misalignment of the workpiece.
