Fixture

« Back to Glossary Index

In the manufacturing industry, a fixture is a specialized tool or device used to hold and position a workpiece during the manufacturing process. Fixtures are designed to ensure that the workpiece is held securely and accurately in place, allowing for precise machining, drilling, or other operations to be performed. Fixtures can be custom-designed for specific parts or can be standardized for use across multiple parts or products.

Fixtures are an essential component of modern manufacturing processes, as they help to improve efficiency, reduce errors, and increase productivity. By holding the workpiece in a fixed position, fixtures allow for consistent and repeatable results, which is critical in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and medical device manufacturing.

There are many different types of fixtures used in manufacturing, including clamps, jigs, and vices. Each type of fixture is designed to hold a specific type of workpiece, and they can be made from a variety of materials, including steel, aluminum, and plastic.
