Yes, want to see other methods for making soft jaws!
That was a fantastic instructional video.
Learned so much in addition to the soft jaws including the way to select geometry by dragging the rectangles right or left.
PLEASE MAKE THE PROPOSED ADDITIONAL VIDEOS.
All very helpful and clearly and succinctly stated.
THANK YOU !
Short, simple and full of info! Thanks! I’d be interested in more as well.
Sure, will wait for other 2 ways to make fixture
Awesome video! More soft jaw videos would be greatly appreciated. Also setting up fixture plates and different methods to configure them would be amazing. Really difficult to find interactional videos on fixture plates. Thanks! Great content!!
Great tutorial, thank you!
Excellent video Kevin, looking forward to the other methods. Excited to get you back in AK soon. Cheers
Thanks for sharing!
Yes please I would like to see other methods for making soft jaws!!
Yes yes yes to all of it.
Yes, please!
Definitely want to see more
Hey Kevin another fantastic video and so clear on the instructions. I will certainly put my hand up high and ask for the other Soft jaw options in future videos. I am constantly searching UA-cam for fixture style videos to help me learn the various ways. I would love to see one involving pocket and using mightybite grips
Thanks for the greate viedo Kevin, please make the other soft jaw viedos.
Nice content Kevin 👍👍💪💪
Yes other methods please.
Good info. I think the additional videos with other methods would be helpful.. Thanks.
Thank you so much
Oh please more videos! A question in relation to the vice in the machine, as you look in is she vertical or horizontal?
Nice tip about using negative stock to remain in CAM to get a little clearance.
Great Video! I would love to see the other soft jaw methods. Thanks.
Hi. Did you find the other video? It should be right after or close to this one on the channel.
Yes please, more soft jaw info please
Like to see other ways
more on soft jaws, please
Matching radii in the soft jaw and the part can be difficult. If the radius in the fixed jaw is smaller than the radius in the part, the location will be shifted (in Y). If the radius in the fixed jaw is larger than the radius is the part, locating in X will be at the 'apex' of the circle. This may not provide the best clamping and also a shift in Y. The jaw could wear-in over time but this would have a migrating Y shift.
Maybe use the angled planar face and the face perpendicular to the soft jaw as locating/clamping features and add clearance for the radius features.
Well, depending on the application, that may be the correct answer. This video isn’t intended as deep dive into Workholding philosophies but instead how to use the tools in Fusion. I’m this case even if the radii didn’t match perfectly, it’s just a bottle opener. Thank you for your tips on this though.
Understood. Really appreciate your content.
Just highlighting a minor misalignment potential. Ask me how I know. Haha.
Essentially just make sure the wear comp/diameter for the tool matches the CAM. Less of an issue if using the same tool for the op1 profile and soft jaw profile.
Keep feeding your knowledge please, would like to see some tombstone tutorials too
Do it!
Awsome vid, I would love to see the setup. I run into problems because fusion thinks there's stock in the soft jaws gap.
Yeah, it will think there is stock in the gap by defining it this way. However, if you verify your space to confirm the gap is equal to or larger than your tool diameter, you can then set the tool to plunge at the midplane between the jaw faces.
@Mechanical Advantage awsome thanks. Is there a quick way to explain how to plunge in the gap? I was just fighting this problem, where it was plunging in the jaw and I couldn't even get it to helical. Thanks man.👍
You need a point that you can specify as a predrill point. I’m sorry, I’m traveling today so I can’t look it up as easily. If you go back through my videos, I’m pretty certain I program a speed vise handle and I show how I use that point as a predrill point when machining the softjaws. If you can’t find it, let me know.
@Mechanical Advantage awsome man, thanks for replying quickly while traveling. I'll look it up. Have a good weekend.👍
Hi, when I project my part on to soft jaws and want to extrude it marks all soft jaw surface ignoring projected lines. What might be the issue?
I'm not sure. You might need to send me an email so I can see if I can help you out.
hi did use split body to make soft jaw more complex ?
I don’t think I ufff split body. I think I used combine on this one as a cut.
