 ABSTRACT

A vise is a mechanical apparatus used to secure an object to allow work

to be performed on it. Vises have two parallel jaws, one fixed and the other
movable, threaded in and out by a screw and lever.

An engineer’s vise is bolted onto the top surface of a workbench, with the
face of the fixed jaws just forward of its front edge. The vise may include other
features such as a small anvil on the back of its body. Most engineer’s vises
have a swivel base. Some engineer’s vises marketed as “Homeowner Grade” are
not made of steel or cast iron, but of pot metal.

Machine vises are mounted on drill presses, grinding machines and

milling machines. Abrasive chop saws have a special type of machine vise built
in to the saw. Some hobbyists use a machine vise as a bench vise because of the
low cost and small size.

 INTRODUCTION

Today’s vises range in configuration from relatively simple single-

station models to very elaborate multiple-station designs. Most vises consist
of a mounting base or body that is secured to the machine table, a stationary
jaw against which part material to be machined is located, a movable jaw and
screw mechanism.

When tightened, the movable jaw is pushed or drawn forward by the

screw mechanism thus clamping the workpiece against the stationary jaw.

Vises are simple, relatively fast and easy to operate. Their

advancements were greatly accelerated in the 1960s with the advent of CNC
machines when the demand for higher precision parts and greater productivity
gave birth to a patented precision machine vise. Early vise designs, when
under pressure, deflected so that part alignment was a constant problem.

The precision machine vise, with its friction reducing, needle bearing,
thrust collar, aligned and held parts more accurately and securely than any
previous screw type vise.

Double-station, multiple-station, self-centering, hydraulic, vertical and

many other versions were developed out of the basic concept of the original
single-station, precision machine vise.

To address the work holding needs of a particular machining operation,

one needs to consider part size, material, machine speed, feed rate and the
quantity of parts to be produced. Process planning requires dividing the
machining process into steps best suited to the available machines. Smaller
machine shops are more likely to plan their work holding around knee mills
or VMCs.

1
 With knee mills, the full range of vise accessories can help with setup
reduction, such as quick change jaws, which, in some cases can reduce
changing jaw plates to just 5 percent of the previously required time. For
more complex machines—HMCs and VMCs—part loading time and setup
are an integral element of downtime and need significant attention to maintain
high efficiency. Work holding again becomes a central element in
maximizing machine uptime.

DOUBLE JAW VISE

The present invention is directed to a device for holding and clamping

workpieces, such as bolts, bolt-heads, screws, screw-heads, hex-head bolts,
socket-head bolts, button-head bolts, 12-point head bolts, hose-end fittings,
tubing of any shape, spark plugs and a host of other mechanical parts, tools,
and accessories, so that the workpiece may be worked on. Conventional vices
provide one clamping jaw-piece for holding workpieces, which does not
provide much flexibility, nor, for certain workpieces, a stable, firm grip
thereon while the piece is worked on. The present invention overcomes these
disadvantages, and provides a flexible vice that holds the workpiece in a much
more stable and safe manner.

It is the primary objective of the present invention to provide a vice for

clamping and holding workpieces that provides a great degree of flexibility
while increasing the stability and retention of the workpiece while being
worked.

It is a primary objective of the present invention to provide a vice that

may be used by itself, or itself be held in a fixed, conventional vice for
adapting the fixed vice in order to have the benefits of the vice of the
invention.

2
 FIG:1 DOUBLE JAW VICE

Toward these and other ends, the vice of the present invention has a pair
of parallel, work-piece clamping jaw-members, which jaw-members are
spaced laterally apart. The first jaw-member is a semi-rigid one, and has a
lower, fixed, V-shaped jaw-element and an upper, slidable jaw-element. The
second jaw-member is completely slidable as an integral unit, and also allows
for the two jaw-elements thereof of which it is comprised to be movable
toward and away from each, whereby the second jaw-member may be used
separately to hold a workpiece, and may be used in conjunction with the first
jaw-member for assisting the first jaw-member in firmly and safely clamping
a workpiece in order to provide a more stable holding of the workpiece during
the working thereof. For example, the second, floating jaw-member may be
adjusted for holding the smaller-diameter portion of a long workpiece, while
the fixed jaw-member holds and clamps the larger diameter portion of the
same workpiece. The second workpiece may be used alone for holding and
clamping workpieces that are more difficult to grip, or the like, and also may
be used for holding a tool, or similar article, while the first, semi-rigid jaw-
member clamps a workpiece associated with the tool being clamped by the
floating jaw-member.

3
 For example, the semi-rigid jaw-member may grip a screw, while the
floating one holds a matching screwdriver inserted into the slot of the screw,
whereby the tool can assist in manipulating, orienting, holding and/or
stabilizing the screw while it is being held by the first semi-rigid jaw-member.
The frame of the vice of the invention also provides a stepped, annular surface
that assists in the holding of the vice of the invention in a conventional, fixed
vice, if desired.

TYPE OF VICE:

PLAIN VICE

FIG:2 PLAIN VICE

The plain vise is used for light milling cuts parallel to the length of the
work. The bed and the slide are of cast iron, while the jaws are of tool steel,
hardened and ground. The lever action permits quick clamping of the work,
which enables speedier production. The vise is fastened to the table with T-

4
bolts, which pass through slotted holes at the ends of the vise. The plain vise
is lower than other types of vises. Plain vice.

FLANGED VICE

FIG:3 FLANGED VICE

A variation of the plain vise is designed to give greater rigidity because

of the addition of a flange all around the base. On each of the four sides a
slotted hole is provided, to receive the T-slot bolts which fasten the vise to the
milling machine table. The underside of the base is slotted at right angles, and
removable keys are provided by means of which the vise may be quickly and
accurately aligned, either lengthwise or crosswise, to the table. In other words
the vise is to be bolted to the milling table in one of two positions: (i) with the
jaw faces parallel to longitudinal table travel and (ii) with the jaw faces at 900
to longitudinal table travel. The jaws of the vise are made of steel, hardened
and ground. They are held in the vise by means of fluster-head screws, and
this makes it possible to replace worn or damaged jaw whenever necessary.
The flanged vise, which holds work up to 7 in. wide, is the type used for plain
milling operations. Its low height and broad base give it the rigidity needed
for heavy cuts.

5
SWIVEL VICE

It is frequently of great advantage to be able to mill an angular surface

in relation to a straight one without removing the job from the vise. The
swivel vice, makes it possible to do this. This vise is made into two parts. The
upper or gripping part has the same design as the flanged vise. The lower part,
or base, (that is bolted to the milling table), is provided with a central pivot
stud and is graduated in degrees. This enables the jaws of the vise to be
positioned at any angle desired without moving the swivel base. The parts are
held together by two bolts, the nuts of which must be loosened to permit the
work-holding jaws of the vise to be swung to any angular position in relation
to the cutter or spindle.

FIG:4 SWIVEL VICE

6
CAMACTION VICE

FIG:5 CAM ACTION VICE

There are occasions when many duplicate parts are to be milled, and
these parts are of size within the clamping range of a vise, and the operation
of tightening and releasing a screw operated vise would prove too time-
consuming. The cam-action vice, is suitable for such work because a one-
movement operation of the cam lever will move the sliding jaw sufficiently
for tightening or releasing the work. Loosening the nut on the cam pivot
allows the width of the opening between the jaws to be varied to suit the job.
The cam pivot acts as a fulcrum for the cam lever and is given greater holding
power by being fitted into machined serrations on the upper face of the vise
base

7
TOOLMAKER UNIVERSAL VICE

FIG:6 TOOLMAKER UNIVERSAL VICE

A vise which have two or three swivel settings so that the work piece be
able to be set at a compound angle moreover known as toolmaker's vise A
simple vise is a tool to uses two jaws to safe a workpiece in each a horizontal
or a vertical position. A universal vise is a multi-purpose clamping apparatus
to adjusts to grip an object that is irregularly shaped. Typically, this gripping
tool swivels and hold a piece in diagonal, horizontal, or vertical positions.
Manufacturers sell universal vises in several sizes and configurations and
frequently customize the vises to serve a definite function.

 LITERATURE REVIEW

In shearing or cutting operation as or blade descends upon the metal, the

pressure exerted by the blade first cause the plastic deformation of the metal.
Since the clearance between the two blades is very small, the plastic
deformation takes place in a localized area and the metal adjacent to the cutting
edges of the blade edges becomes highly stressed, which causes the fracture to
start on both sides of the sheet as the deformation progresses and the sheet is
sheared.

Shearing machines are classified according to the following:-

1. Pneumatically Operated
2. Hydraulically Operated
3. Rack and Pinion Operated
4. Spring Operated

Brief descriptions of all the types are as follows :

Pneumatically Operated

Heart the advertisement of the header is carried out in the upward

and the downward direction using the pneumatic double acting piston and
cylinder unit arrangement along with the foot operated direction control
valve. In this type of machine high pressure air is used as the working
fluid for the transfer of power and the motion.

9
Hydraulically Operated

Hear the lowering and rising of the header is carried over using the
hydraulic piston and cylinder arrangement. To actuate the piston and the
cylinder, the oil is allowed to enter the cylinder from front or the back
side of the piston. But the oil is compositely costlier and its leakage may
cause so many problems.

Rack and Pinion Operated

Hear the lowering and rising of the header is carried out manually
using the rack and pinion management. In this case the required pressure is
applied manually using direct hand pressure on the rack using pinion and
leaver arrangement. Since the machine is robust and requires large pressure,
hence it is not suitable.

Spring Operated

The working of spring operated machine is similar to the rack and

pinion operated machine but differs from it in construction. Hear the
lowering and rising of the heating handle is carried out manually and it
requires too much pressure for its operation and also there is possibility of
having damage to the work piece if not handled carefully.

 METHODOLOGY

CONCEPT OF THE PROJECT

Before starting every project its planning is to be done. In planning

functions are life the functions of never in our body. planning a project is a very
important task and should be taken up with great care as the efficiency of the
whole project largely defends upon its planning, while planning a project each
and every details should be worked our in anticipation should be carefully
considered with all the relative provisions aspects.

PROJECT CAPACITY

The capacity of the project must be decided considering theamount of

money which can be invested. The availability of materialand machines and
usefulness of the project.

DESIGN AND DRAWING

Having decided about the project to be manufactured at must be designed.

Design work should be done very considering all the relevant factors. After
design the project detailed drawing are prepared. DetailedSpecification for raw
material and finished products should be decided Carefully along with the
specification of the machine required for the manufacture.

11
MATERIAL REQUIREMENTS

The list of material required for manufacture is prepared from the

drawing. The list is known as “Bill of materials”. Availability of these materials
is surveyed and purchased from the market.

OPERATION PLANNING

Next work of planning is to “select the best method” manufacture the

product, so that the wastage of materials, labour, machines and time can be
eliminated by considering various methods. The best method is to be selected
for fabrication and other works.

The proper method and proper person and the purposes of operation,
necessity operation, proper machine planning. The best method is the developed
and is applied to fabricate the project.

MACHINE LOADING

While planning proper care should be taken to find the machining time
for the operation as correct as possible. So that arrangement of full use of
machines can be made and the machine loading program can be decided.

PURCHASE CONSIDERATION

It is difficult to manufacture all the components needed for the project in

the machine shop. In each case, we should decide whether tomake or buy about
a particular item. It is decided during the planning after making a complete
study of relative merits and demerits.

12
EQUIPMENT PROCEDURE

Results obtained from “operation planning” and machine loading help in

calculating the equipment require Specification of the equipment should be laid
down by considering then drawings. Drawings will also help in deciding the
necessary requirement of tools and accessories.

SHEET METAL:

Sheet metal is metal formed by an industrial process into thin, flat pieces.
Sheet metal is one of the fundamental forms used in metalworking and it can be
cut and bent into a variety of shapes. Countless everyday objects are fabricated
from sheet metal. Thicknesses can vary significantly; extremely thin sheets are
considered foil or leaf, and pieces thicker than 6 mm (0.25 in) are
considered plate.

Sheet metal is available in flat pieces or coiled strips. The coils are formed by
running a continuous sheet of metal through a roll slitter.

In most of the world, sheet metal thickness is consistently specified in

millimeters. In the US, the thickness of sheet metal is commonly specified by a
traditional, non-linear measure known as its gauge. The larger the gauge number,
the thinner the metal. Commonly used steel sheet metal ranges from 30 gauge to
about 7 gauge. Gauge differs between ferrous (iron based)metals and nonferrous
metals such as aluminum or copper; copper thickness, for example is measured
in ounces, which represents the weight of copper contained in an area of one
square foot.

There are many different metals that can be made into sheet metal, such
as aluminium, brass, copper, steel, tin, nickel and titanium. For decorative uses,
some important sheet metals include silver, gold, and platinum (platinum sheet
metal is also utilized as a catalyst.)
13
 Sheet metal is used in automobile and truck (lorry) bodies, airplane
fuselages and wings, medical tables, roofs for buildings (architecture) and many
other applications. Sheet metal of iron and other materials with high
magnetic permeability, also known as laminated steel cores, has applications
in transformers and electric machines. Historically, an important use of sheet
metal was in plate armor worn by cavalry, and sheet metal continues to have
many decorative uses, including in horse tack. Sheet metal workers are also
known as "tin bashers" (or "tin knockers"), a name derived from the hammering
of panel seams when installing tin roofs.

FIG:7 SHEET METAL

BOLT :

A bolt is a form of threaded fastener with an external male thread. Bolts

are closely related to, and often confused with, screws.

The distinction between a bolt and a screw is commonly misunderstood.

There are several practical differences, but most have some degree of overlap
between bolts and screws.

14
 The defining distinction, per Machinery's Handbook, is in their intended
purpose: Bolts are for the assembly of two unthreaded components, with the aid
of a nut. Screws in contrast are used in components, and may cut their own
internal thread channels. There is a large overlap between bolts and screws in
function.

Bolts are often used to make a bolted joint. This is a combination of the
nut applying an axial clamping force and also the shank of the bolt acting as
a dowel, pinning the joint against sideways shear forces. For this reason, many
bolts have a plain unthreaded shank (called the grip length) as this makes for a
better, stronger dowel. The presence of the unthreaded shank has often been
given as characteristic of bolts vs. screws, but this is incidental to its use, rather
than defining. The grip length should be chosen carefully, to be around the same
length as the thickness of the materials, and any washers, bolted together. Too
short places the dowel shear load onto the threads, which may
cause fretting wear on the hole. Too long prevents the nut from being tightened
down correctly. No more than two turns of the thread should be within the hole.

Where a fastener forms its own thread in the component being fastened,
it is called a screw. This is most obviously so when the thread is tapered (i.e.
traditional wood screws), precluding the use of a nut, or when a sheet metal
screw or other thread-forming screw is used.

A screw must always be turned to assemble the joint. Many bolts are
held fixed in place during assembly, either by a tool or by a design of non-
rotating bolt, such as a carriage bolt, and only the corresponding nut is turned.

15
 FIG:8 BOLT

WELDING:

Welding is a fabrication or sculptural process that joins materials,

usually metals or thermoplastics, by causing fusion, which is distinct from lower
temperature metal-joining techniques such as brazing and soldering, which do
not melt the base metal. In addition to melting the base metal, a filler material is
typically added to the joint to form a pool of molten material (the weld pool)
that cools to form a joint that is usually stronger than the base
material. Pressure may also be used in conjunction with heat, or by itself, to
produce a weld. Welding also requires a form of shield to protect the filler
metals or melted metals from being contaminated or oxidized.

ARC WELDING :

Arc welding is a process that is used to join metal to metal by using

electricity to create enough heat to melt metal, and the melted metals when cool
result in a binding of the metals. It is a type of welding that uses a welding
power supply to create an electric arc between an electrode and the base
material to melt the metals at the welding point. They can use either direct (DC)
or alternating (AC) current, and consumable or non-consumable electrodes.

16
The welding region is usually protected by some type of shielding gas, vapor,
or slag. Arc welding processes may be manual, semi-automatic, or fully
automated. First developed in the late part of the 19th century, arc welding
became commercially important in shipbuilding during the Second World War.
Today it remains an important process for the fabrication of steel structures and
vehicles.

FIG:9 ARC WELDING

DRILLING:

Drilling is a cutting process that uses a drill bit to cut a hole of

circular cross-section in solid materials. The drill bit is usually a rotary cutting
tool, often multi-point. The bit is pressed against the work-piece and rotated at
rates from hundreds to thousands of revolutions per minute. This forces the
cutting edge against the work-piece, cutting off chips (swarf) from the hole as it
is drilled.

17
 In rock drilling, the hole is usually not made through a circular cutting
motion, though the bit is usually rotated. Instead, the hole is usually made by
hammering a drill bit into the hole with quickly repeated short movements. The
hammering action can be performed from outside the hole (top-hammer drill) or
within the hole (down-the-hole drill, DTH). Drills used for horizontal drilling
are called drifter drills.

In rare cases, specially-shaped bits are used to cut holes of non-circular

cross-section; a square cross-section is possible.

FIG:10 DRILLING MACHINE

18
TYPES OF DRILLING MACHINE:

 Portable drilling machine

 Bench drilling machine

 Radial drilling machine

 Pillar drilling machine

 Gang drilling machine

 Multiple drilling machine

GRINDING:

Grinding is an abrasive machining process that uses a grinding wheel as

the cutting tool.

A wide variety of machines are used for grinding:

 Hand-cranked knife-sharpening stones (grindstones)

 Handheld power tools such as angle grinders and die grinders
 Various kinds of expensive industrial machine tools called grinding
machines
 Bench grinders often found in residential garages and basements

Grinding practice is a large and diverse area

of manufacturing and toolmaking. It can produce very fine finishes and very
accurate dimensions; yet in mass production contexts it can also rough out large
volumes of metal quite rapidly.

19
 It is usually better suited to the machining of very hard materials than
is "regular" machining (that is, cutting larger chips with cutting tools such
as tool bits or milling cutters), and until recent decades it was the only practical
way to machine such materials as hardened steels. Compared to "regular"
machining, it is usually better suited to taking very shallow cuts, such as
reducing a shaft’s diameter by half a thousandth of an inch or 12.7 μm.

Grinding is a subset of cutting, as grinding is a true metal-cutting

process. Each grain of abrasive functions as a microscopic single-point cutting
edge (although of high negative rake angle), and shears a tiny chip that is
analogous to what would conventionally be called a "cut" chip (turning, milling,
drilling, tapping, etc.). However, among people who work in the machining
fields, the term cutting is often understood to refer to the macroscopic cutting
operations, and grinding is often mentally categorized as a "separate" process.
This is why the terms are usually used in separately in shop-floor practice.

PROCESSES:

 Surface grinding
 Cylindrical grinding
 Creep-feed grinding

20
 FIG:11 GRINDING

WORKING:

Chassis frame is the main base of the vehicle on which body is mounted
with wheels and machinery. As per the design, marking has been done on each
angle. As per the marking, angles are cut by cutting machine and holes are
drilled on angles by using drilling machine for fixing saw chain assembly and
DC motor. L-angles have been weld as per marking and finally the chassis is
fabricated as per the required dimensions. Two wheels are attached to each
other through the pipe and connected to the frame for the movement of the
harvester in the field. Langle is weld to pipe to make handle and welded to the
chassis for pushing the vehicle in the field. At handle l-shape angle plate is weld
to place the solar panel.

L-angle is cut to the required dimension and DC motor is fitted to it; and
then it is welded to the front portion of the frame. A shaft from the DC motor is
connected to drive sprocket. Guide bar is mounted in front part of the chassis by
using nuts and bolts and weld as per the requirement. Proper alignment is made
between the drive sprocket and guide bar for the rotation of the saw chain
properly.
21
 Distance between the guide bar and ground is done as per the requirement.
DC motor is connected to the battery through switch and solar panel is
connected to the battery for power generation. Sheet metal is cut by a cutting
machine as per the chassis dimensions and it is weld on chassis frame for
carrying load on the vehicle.

FIG:12 2D VIEW OF TILTING VICE

22
Main Components of tilting Vice:

1. Jaws: A machine vice usually has hardened jaws which allow it to

withstand the large amount of force that comes with machining

applications.

2. Screw :The screw is the part that is in control of opening and closing the

jaws of the vice.

3. Handle: machine vice commonly has a small crank handle which allows

the user to apply maximum clamping force when working, but without

having to turn the handle excessively. This is because the crank handle

provides extra leverage when rotating, meaning the screw can exert

greater pressure onto the jaws but without any extra effort from the user.

4. Base : Machine vices are often manufactured with a flat bottom base

design which fits firmly against the machine’s table. This allows the vice

to fit on the table in horizontal alignment with the drill bit.

5. Swivel arrangement : Spherical or Rolling pair is needed to tilt both

jaws in desired angle .Fixed jaw has provided the swiveling attachment to

tilt it without any extra effort.

6. Locking Pins: Once desired angle is achieved movable jaw is fixed with

help of locking Pins.

23
APPLICATION OF TILTING VICE:

 As an angle vice can be used to hold a workpiece for a number of tasks,

including drilling and milling, the vice can therefore be used in both drill

press and milling machines.

 The tilting feature means the vice is ideal for creating angled or diagonal

holes through an object when drilling.

 It is also useful for milling applications, such as making dovetail joints, as

the vice can be set to any desired angle, up to 90 degrees.

24
 CONCLUSION

The aim of the project work undertaken is a part of improving the

student’s knowledge towards practical design of rotating and tilting machine

vice with the help of gear train mechanism. This improves not only the practical

skill but also various management function such as planning the project,

material equipment, group efforts in achieving the targets, costing, improving

the project by reducing various costs. The project is designed and completed as

per the schedule with facilities available in the machine shop and by purchasing

materials in the market. By completing our project, we need the objectives

mentioned for this project is completely fulfilled. So we are satisfied as for the

project is concerned.
