Jig and Fixture Tooling

At Vic’s & Precision Tooling & Engineering, we specialise in design calculations and manufacturing jigs and fixtures in Melbourne for a variety of engineering, manufacturing, and industrial purposes. With extensive experience in crafting jigs and fixtures to meet custom specifications and designs, we ensure top-notch quality for every project.

Jigs and fixture tooling are essential in manufacturing and crucial for creating precise and interchangeable components. These devices are crafted to securely hold, guide, and position materials during various manufacturing or fabrication processes such as cutting, welding, or assembling. They guarantee accuracy and efficiency in every task, leading to the production of high-quality goods.

Whether you require a straightforward jig or fixture or a more intricate design, we’ve got you covered. We can replicate existing pieces with exceptional accuracy or create entirely new systems with precise jig and fixture drawing tailored to your specific needs and requirements.

Our expertise extends across a diverse range of industries and applications. We’ve manufactured jigs and fixtures for welding and machining, woodworking and framing, boring and drilling, assembly, sandwiching, and more. No matter the complexity or application, we have the skills and experience to deliver outstanding results.

Difference between a tool jig and a fixture?

Jig: A jig is a type of tool used in manufacturing to guide, control, or hold a workpiece in a specific position or orientation during machining or assembly operations. Jigs are typically employed in repetitive manufacturing processes where precise positioning or alignment is crucial to ensure consistent and accurate results. They aid in reducing errors and enhancing efficiency by offering a standardised setup for recurring tasks.

Fixture: Similar to a jig, a fixture is a tool utilised in manufacturing to hold, support, or locate a workpiece during machining or assembly operations. However, fixtures are primarily engineered to securely secure the workpiece in place, often utilising clamps, bolts, or other fastening mechanisms. Fixtures are commonly utilised in machining operations such as milling, drilling, or grinding to securely hold the workpiece while it undergoes various machining processes.
