Vertex VH-4 Hydraulic Machine Vice – 2,500 kgf clamping force, 0–170 mm opening
A Vertex VH-4 hydraulic vice engineered for secure and repeatable workholding in milling machines and machining centres.
- 2,500 kgf clamping force for heavy-duty work
- 0–170 mm adjustable opening range
- High precision with 0.02 mm accuracy
- Robust 28 kg construction for stability
Consistent heavy-duty clamping for demanding machining
The hydraulic drive delivers steady, repeatable clamping that minimises slippage during aggressive cuts. With a rated 2,500 kgf clamping force and an opening range of 0–170 mm, the vice secures a wide variety of workpieces without frequent repositioning. The substantial mass and robust construction contribute to vibration damping and stable machining, which reduces tool wear and extends cycle life. Designed for production and jobbing environments, this vice supports uninterrupted processing where firm workholding is critical.
Engineered accuracy improves process reliability
Precision is central to stable production; the vice is specified with 0.02 mm accuracy, improving positional repeatability between setups. This level of control helps maintain tolerances across batches and simplifies downstream inspection. The mechanical layout, combined with hydraulic actuation, ensures consistent jaw alignment and clamping pressure, resulting in fewer rejects and less rework. For users assessing process capability, the repeatability characteristics translate directly into predictable part quality and more efficient throughput.
Ready for integration and straightforward operation
Mounting and routine handling are uncomplicated thanks to clear external dimensions (443 x 270 x 135 mm) and a compact footprint that fits most machining worktables. At approximately 28 kg, the unit balances portability for repositioning with the mass required for stable cutting. The vice’s classification data (ECLASS and ETIM) support compatibility checks in engineering procurement systems, while the solid construction minimises maintenance intervals. Where uptime matters, reliable workholding and straightforward serviceability keep production moving.
