[0002] The internal cavity cutting of U-shaped metal parts is a common process in metal processing. Its core technology lies in using a fixing device to stably clamp the workpiece and ensure that the cutting tool can accurately machine the internal cavity surface.
[0003] Traditional clamping devices typically apply single-point or unilateral pressure to clamp the workpiece externally. However, due to the special internal cavity structure of U-shaped metal parts, the inner cavity wall is prone to deformation due to stress concentration during the cutting process, leading to defective products. Furthermore, the machining of the inner cavity of U-shaped parts requires precise positioning, but existing devices mostly rely on manual calibration or simple mechanical limits, which are difficult to use for precise positioning and affect machining accuracy. Therefore, a U-shaped metal part internal cavity cutting and machining clamping device is proposed to solve the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, a U-shaped metal part internal cavity cutting and fixing device is provided. This technical solution solves the problem mentioned in the background art that the inner cavity wall of the U-shaped metal part is prone to deformation due to stress concentration during the internal cavity cutting process, resulting in defective products, difficulty in accurate positioning, and affecting the processing accuracy.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a fixing device for internal cutting of U-shaped metal parts, which has the following advantages:
[0014] This invention achieves automatic calibration of the workpiece by setting up a displacement sensor and a forward and reverse motor. After the U-shaped metal part is placed, the displacement sensor scans the workpiece, identifies the actual size and positional deviation of the U-shaped metal part, and feeds it back to the control system. This triggers two forward and reverse motors to drive the threaded rod in real time to adjust the position of the support platform, so that the workpiece is accurately aligned with the axis of the cutting tool.
[0015] This invention incorporates a hydraulic clamping module. After the U-shaped metal part is placed, the hydraulic rod extends, pushing the clamping plate towards the U-shaped metal part.
