Jigs and Fixtures are :-
 * 1) Mechanical devices.
 * 2) Locates and holds the workpieces while machining.
 * 3) Only used for production.
 * 4) Provides repeatability in work.
 * 5) Reduces work setting time & operators fatigue.

Difference between Jigs and Fixtures:-
 * 1) jigs guides the tool but fixtures only locate the tool.
 * 2) jigs are used in unidimensional machining i.e. drilling,reaming,tapping, etc but fixtures are used in multidimensional machining i.e. milling,turning,grinding,etc.
 * 3) jigs are light weight but fixtures are rigid and bulky.
