A
jig maker is another term for a tool and die maker or
fixture maker, usually in woodworking or in the metal industries. The
standard differentiation of jigs from fixtures is that a jig is what
mounts onto a workpiece, whereas a fixture has the workpiece placed on
it, into it, or next to it. (The terms are sometimes used
interchangeably, but most toolmakers consider this improper usage.) A
jig maker needs to know how to use an assortment of machines to build
devices used in automation, robotics
, welding, tapping, and mass production operations.
