    - A device, in which a component is held and located for a specific operation and bushes are integrated that guide the tool, is called as jig.

    - When same operation is to be performed on more than one components, then the use of jig is economically feasible.

    - The usual machining operations for jigs are drilling and reaming.

    - The below diagram shows a simple jig for drilling operation.
