Collet-type fixture (small-diameter workpieces) – friction-holding jig
Collet-type fixture CLT-M-xx
A φ30 mm collet-type compact fixture that lightly grips cables and small-diameter parts for temporary holding, supporting hands-free work during connector assembly and inspection processes.
This is a φ30 mm collet-type compact fixture designed as an assembly aid. It lightly grips cables and small-diameter parts (typically φ3–10 mm) for temporary holding, supporting hands-free work in operations such as connector assembly and continuity testing. The friction-holding collet structure, 3D-printed from wood-like PLA, allows tool-less attachment and removal of workpieces. Compared with metal clamps, it reduces the risk of scratching and provides gentle retention, helping to minimize load on cable insulation and small precision parts. Typical applications include temporary holding and positioning of cables, as well as auxiliary fixtures for retaining and positioning small shafts, bearing outer rings, and other small cylindrical components. The number of holes, hole diameter, and hole arrangement can be custom-designed, allowing us to respond to requests such as “a collet tailored to our own part geometry” or “adjusting the contact surface and holding force.”
