# Machining fixture clamp-force estimate
# Scope: Frictional holding at supplied clamp force; cutting direction parallel to contact.
# Status: illustrative worked example; engineering review pending.
# Inputs are example values. Checks are editable example requirements, not standards.

cuttingForce = 100 N
friction = 0.2
clampForce = 1000 N

holding := friction*clampForce [N]
factor := holding/cuttingForce

check holding factor target: factor >= 1.5

scenario alternative: cuttingForce = 80 N
