Solution (By Examveda Team)

The floating position of the holding fixture in a rotary transfer device allows for minor adjustments or movement to accommodate any slight misalignments between the fixture and the machining station.

This floating capability helps in achieving better alignment and positioning of the workpiece at each station.

As a result, it significantly improves the accuracy of location by minimizing errors due to mechanical tolerances and misalignments.

Therefore, the primary purpose of using a floating position is to enhance precision in locating the workpiece during the transfer and machining process.
