Introduction
Cam clamping
Quick clamping by cam is very effective and
very simple in operation.
The cam and screw type clamping system is
used for clamping through some interior parts
where other simple system will not have access.

Necessity
Slender and cantelever type cutting tools, mainly drills,
usually suffer from run – out due to possible errors in the
drill, sockets and drilling machine spindle and finally in
the overall alignment.
Such run out causes over sizing, out of roundness and
surface roughening of the drilled holes.
Such run out aggravates further with the increase in drill
speed (rpm) and the thrust force, specially if the drill is not
geometrically symmetrical.
This often leads to, in addition to poor product quality,
breakage of the drill by bending and / or buckling.
To reduce such problems, bushes are used in the jigs to
guide the drill bits.

Some special jig bushings are often designed and used
as and when required.
Jig body
Holds the various parts of a jig assembly.
Cap screws and dowel pins
Hold fabricated parts together.
Locating devices
Pins, pads, and recesses are used to locate the
workpiece on the jig.
Clamping devices
Locking pins
Inserted after the first hole is
drilled to lock or hold the
workpiece securely to the
jig plate while subsequent holes
are being drilled.
Template Jig
Leaf jigs are small box jigs with a hinged leaf to allow
for easier loading and unloading.
The main differences between leaf jigs and box jigs
are size and part location.
Leaf jigs are normally smaller than box jigs and are
sometimes made so that they do not completely
surround the part.
They are usually equipped with a handle for easier
movement.
