Automatic Vice

Abstract

A vice is a mechanical screw apparatus utilized for securing or clamping a workpiece to facilitate the execution of tasks with tools such as saws, planes, drills, mills, screwdrivers, sandpaper, and more. Vices typically consist of a stationary jaw and a parallel movable jaw adjusted by the screw. The vice is essential for drilling wood, metal, and other materials by firmly gripping the workpiece, providing the necessary stability for precise cuts. It is also indispensable for sawing tasks where a consistent manual or automatic force is applied to achieve desired shapes. A pneumatic system can be controlled manually or automatically. The Automatic vice project for metalworking features a swiftly movable clamping jaw and fixed jaw, ensuring precise and unalterable alignment of the vertical clamping surface of the fixed jaw and the horizontal surface of the workpiece fastening plane. Employing an automatically operated pneumatic vice simplifies tasks and conserves energy. Our result goes beyond our expectations in a good way. Future recommendations include Improving the automation control system to reduce response delays during heavy operations.
