simple slots, holes, or windows in them. You may find tips 6 through 12 to be beneficial; they are all related to work holding.

      6.Use a good quality angle lock milling machine vise.

      We made the mistake some years ago buying a couple of cheap imported milling machine vises. What a blunder! Our thinking at the time was: “All the vise has to do is clamp the part. How difficult can that be?”

      We suffered with these vises for about a year before we upgraded to high-quality vises. Table 2-1 shows what we found about using cheap milling machine vises.

      A milling machine vise is something used nearly every day so the benefits of having high quality vises are compounded.

      • You are constantly struggling to keep parts held securely against parallels.

      • There is a “spongy” feel when you start clamping on a part. You’re never quite sure how much to tighten the vice, which results in inconsistent clamping pressure and part location.

      • They have a lot of sharp edges and burrs.

      • They are constructed of cheap metal; tolerances are wide open; even the handles don’t fit well.

      7.Plan setups so you can see the cut. (see Fig. 2-7)

      This is a rule I always try to follow. There is no sense working blind if you don’t have to. Being able to see the cut has advantages: You’ll be able to keep an eye on cutters for anomalies such as chip packing, chatter, coolant coverage, surface finish, cutter flexing, gouging, jamming, and anything else that might become an issue. As an added benefit, features you cut will likely be easier to inspect.

      8.Aim for stability in your setups. (see Fig. 2-8)

      Theoretically, you have stability when pressure applied anywhere perpendicular to an unclamped part doesn’t move the part. Having stability is more important when machining flimsy parts —the strength of the material may not provide enough rigidity to make a cut.

      9.Use a grinding vise for additional support. (see Fig. 2-9)

      This arrangement works great for supporting odd-shaped parts that can’t be held conveniently in the main vise.

      10.Construct a set of long jaws that can be bolted to the vise. (see Fig. 2-10)

      Cut a groove down the middle of two aluminum bars mounted side by side to create a set of long jaws. We have a few sets of these parallels that have come in surprisingly handy over the years. Long jaws that extend beyond the width of the vice will not provide the same clamping pressure at the ends of the jaws as in the middle. Use a couple of Kant-Twist clamps at the ends of the jaws to provide adequate clamping pressure to hold parts firmly.

      11.Use V-blocks to hold round parts. (see Fig. 2-11 and Fig. 2-12)

      There are a few issues to keep in mind when using V-blocks to hold parts for machining. First, V-blocks don’t apply clamping pressure over a large surface area. The clamping pressure is applied to tangent lines on the circumference of the part. If you squeeze down too hard on parts held with V-blocks, you may dent the parts and throw the center line of the part off location.

      If you use two V-blocks to hold round parts, theoretically you get four lines of clamping contact. If I know cutting pressures will be light, I often use just one V-block and the vise jaw to apply clamping pressure. You can also use some soft material between the vise jaw and the part to avoid denting the part.

      If the diameters of cylindrical parts are not precise and consistant, using a V-block to hold parts may cause them to tilt or may throw center lines off location. That’s one reason you shouldn’t always take advantage of wide-open tolerances. Tight tolerances, although not necessarily needed for the part to function, may be needed to locate and hold parts accurately for further machining.

      12.Use perishable vise jaws. (see Fig. 2-13)

      Use perishable vise jaws as a last but effective method to hold parts. I use perishable vise jaws as a last resort for the following reasons. It’s often difficult to find a set that hasn’t been all cut up. You can always make new vise blanks, but if you leave them out, they’ll likely get used quickly. Furthermore, the appropriate nests have to be machined into them, which takes extra time.

      Suggestions for Get a Grip

      1.Hold parts securely and accurately.

      2.Find simple ways to hold parts securely.

      3.Make a fixture, if needed.

      4.At the end of a CNC program that drills holes into the part, add a tap drill to drill deeper into the mounting fixture.

      5.Save fixtures for future use.

      6.Use a good quality angle lock milling machine vise.

      7.Plan setups so you can see the cut.

      8.Aim for stability in your setups.

      9.Use a grinding vise for additional support.

      10.Construct a set of long jaws that can be bolted to the vise.

      11.Use V-blocks to hold round parts.

      12.Use perishable vise jaws.
