Fixtures & Jigs

Fixtures are used in machining operations to securely hold and position a workpiece while a cutting tool is used to remove material from it. Fixtures come in a variety of shapes and sizes and are usually designed to perform one or multiple specific machining operations. Fixtures can be used in many machining operations such as turning, milling, drilling, reaming, tapping, etc. Sometimes, the fixtures can also be used for assembling components.

The main advantage of using a fixture in machining is that it helps to ensure accuracy and repeatability. Fixtures provide a secure and stable platform for the workpiece, which helps to ensure that the machining operation is performed accurately and consistently. Fixtures also help to reduce setup time and increase productivity, as they can be used to quickly and easily position the workpiece for the machining operation.
