Our team would like to make a pipe vise as our capstone project because it has 65 to 70% machining which is helpful to enhance our mechanical and machining knowledge as well. Basically, pipe vise has been made by milling, drilling, threading consequently. For making a pipe vice we need to face two metal plates with some amount of tolerance. Pipe should be hold by one fix jaw and one movable jaw. Movable jaw is moved by one threaded rod. Four supporting beams are used to hold two metal plates vertically. It is a portable plumbing tool. According to our research, main application of pipe vise is to hold different shapes of pipes and tubing. Main characteristics of these machine is to hold a fix range of pipe.
In addition, parts of pipe vice a listed below:
Moving Jaw
Fix Jaw
Supporting Bar
Bolt and Nut
Metal Plates
