This is a comprehensive introduction to the principles and concepts involved in designing jigs and fixtures for manufacturing. Beginning with basic design fundamentals, the book introduces, and explains in detail, information necessary to create efficient and cost-effective work holders. Many specific examples of various jigs and fixtures, as well as many commercially available fixtures, are applied as examples. The basic design principles, standards, and concepts applied in designing and construction jigs and fixtures are introduced and thoroughly explained and illustrated. Heavy emphasis is placed on the economics of jigs and fixtures using methods and formulas in determining work holder costs. From start to finish, a design is explained in detail and illustrated, including all design considerations and parameters.

Written for the experienced engineer as well as the student, this comprehensive and easy-to-understand reference presents the fundamental principles for combining the components into successful fixtures. It includes metric conversion tables and appendices on transfer tolerances, measuring of tolerances, measuring of angles in radians, and the dimensioning of fixtures by stress analysis.
Covering over 100 specific topics, this book offers many low-cost approaches to short-run tooling: How to improve product interchangeability and accuracy, lower your labor costs, and shorten manufacturing times. 14 detailed chapters cover: universal tooling concepts, combining parts and operations, developing mulitpart tools, coordinate measuring machines, numerical control, computerized tooling systems.

Assists users to determine what devices are needed for various tasks, tips for setting up a job shop, and rules of thumb estimating procedures. This book includes clamping devices, welding fixtures, drilling jigs, milling fixtures, and inspection devices.
This textbook is aimed at providing an introduction to the subject for undergraduate students studying mechanical and manufacturing engineering at most universities. Many of the universities prescribe a syllabus that contains both Design of Jigs and Fixtures, and Design of Press Tools in a single semester course. Keeping the above in mind, this book is designed in two parts. Part-I deals with Jigs and Fixtures and Part-II is earmarked exclusively for the study of Press Tools. Both these subjects are built progressively in successive chapters. A separate appendix, in each part, provides short answer questions with answers, which will help the students in clarifying doubts and strengthen their knowledge. The explanatory notes and illustrations provided in the book will serve as an aid for learning. End-of-chapter questions and answers will prove useful for self study. This textbook will be extremely useful for the students and practicing engineers studying mechanical, manufacturing, and production engineering.
