Jigs & Fixture Design

“Jig” and “fixture” are the two most common elements of any manufacturing industry and often make confusion regarding its functionality or used interchangeably; however, there are separate and clear characteristics defined for these two tools.

 
Both the items had their own definitions and many individuals tried to explain the same with their own words and ways. A jig guides the cutting tool whereas a fixture references the cutting tool.

Jigs are supplied with tool guiding elements such as drill bushes which direct the tool to the required position on the workpiece. Jig hardly clamped with machine tables and usually on the move to align the various bushings with the machine spindle.


A fixture is a work-holding or support device used in the manufacturing industry. Fixtures are used to securely locate (position in a specific location or orientation) and support the work, ensuring that all parts produced using the fixture will maintain conformity and interchangeability.
