ABSTRACT:
A modular clamping system for fixturing workpieces with respect to a numerically controlled drilling and boring machine or the like includes a pair of soft jaw blocks which may be variably spaced with respect to one another in fixed positions to hold the workpiece therebetween. A vice assembly preferably holds the soft jaw blocks in a fixed position during use by way of several vertical and horizontal alignment mechanisms. Cavities to hold the workpieces in place are machined in the soft jaw blocks by the NC machine prior to each job to accurately reference the workpiece with respect to the NC machine.
