Vee locators also best for holding material.

1. Conical locator is used for locating the workpieces having a cylindrical hole in the workpiece. The workpiece is found located by supporting it over the conical locator inserted into the drilled hole of the workpiece.

2. Vee locator is used for locating the circular and semi-circular type of Workpieces.

3. Cylindrical locator is used for locating components.

Having drilled holes. The cylindrical component to be located is gripped by a Cylindrical locator fitted to the jig's body and inserted in the drilled hole of the Component.

Explain pressure type of locators in jigs and fixtures.

Why vee locator doesn't used, can anyone explain?

Diamond is also a hard material and good strength but at any situation it breaks then it become too costly to purchase. As compared to another tool.

Why Diamond locator cannot be used? Please explain it.

What is the difference between conical and diamond locator?

Why diamond locator not use? I think it's also usable in this situation.

Conical locators are used TP center work piece and are used for rough bore location.

Conical pins provides line contact and recommended for work pieces with varying hole size.

Conical locator is locate the proffer.
