The tool-less vise jaw system comprises a stop block and two jaw plates. The jaw plates couple to the jaws of a vise that is used in conjunction with an industrial machine or tool. One jaw plate comprises a plurality of holes into which pins projecting from the stop block may be inserted. One pin extends through the jaw plate into the space between the vise jaws. The pin is used as a reference point during edge finding. Later, when switching from one job to another, the stop block may be moved to a different position in the plurality of holes and a digital readout may be programmed to change an X-axis offset by an amount corresponding to the distance that the pin was moved, thus eliminating the need to edge find again.

A jig structure for assembling a high frequency connector includes a base on which a rotatable seat is provided, and the surface area of the rotatable seat is smaller than the base. A fixed table is provided on the rotatable seat. The fixed table further includes a first table, and an adjusting rod and a plurality of guide rods are provided on the first table. A plurality of assembly tables are provided on the adjusting rod and the guide rods. The assembly tables are correspondingly disposed, and their movement is controlled by the adjusting rod. A first assembly table and a second assembly table are provided on both sides of the fixed table. The first assembly table has movements along X-axis and Y-axis, and the second assembly stage has movements along Y-axis, thereby corresponding to the relative position of the assembly table and the fixed table so as to quickly place the circuit boards and connectors to be assemble.

A vise includes a base and two opposed jaws. At least one of the jaws is movable with respect to the other so that an object can be gripped therebetween. At least one of the two opposed jaws includes a frame and an array of polygon-shaped pins stacked parallel to one another. The frame has a bottom side and two opposed sides tapering towards the bottom side. The pins are disposed on the bottom side. Each pin has a cross-sectional shape such that when stacked together, the pins fit flush with one another and an area defined by the frame is tiled by the pins without any substantial gaps therebetween. The pins are oriented such that the tapering opposed sides direct force vectors to increase a pin-to-pin clamping force and the frame selectively clamps down on the pins such that the pins are held in place.

An arrangement of a carrier plate and vise stop which provide an abutment against which a workpiece rests laterally when being milled. The carrier plate affixes to a rear portion of a fixed jaw of a milling machine, the carrier plate having a forward recess for receiving the rear portion of the fixed jaw which nestles into the recess as the recess is dimensioned for receiving at least three sides of the fixed jaw. The carrier plate includes a plurality of locator chambers sized for receiving dowel pins of a vise stop, whereby adjacent locator chambers are spaced at a constant distance apart from one another. The interlocking of the dowels of the vise stop and the carrier plate may occur at varied lateral locations between the sides of the milling machine. A nose of the vise stop extends into the work area of the milling machine, providing the abutment.

A stop device having a L shaped mounting bracket secured to a machine vise by a mounting bracket screw, a stop arm having an elongated slot extended within the stop arm and running in a parallel direction to a length of the stop arm, a pivot clamp and pivot clamp screw connected to the elongated slot and attaching the stop arm to the mounting bracket along a length side of a machine vise, the stop arm moveable in both an Y and Z direction and lockable by the pivot clamp, a fixed jaw located at the second end of the stop arm and a stop clamp attached to the second end of the stop arm by stop clamp screw, the stop clamp including an adjustable jaw facing the fixed jaw of the stop arm with the stop clamp screw enabling changes to a distance between the jaws to allow the jaws to hold and support a portion of a stop rod having varying shapes and sizes in a fixed, deform-free condition therebetween.
