VBV-5 milling vice (B-type) — 900 kgf clamping force, 0–100 mm opening | Vertex

The VBV-5 milling vice is a mechanical B-type vice engineered for secure workpiece clamping on milling machines, providing a balance of strength and precision in a compact format.

• 900 kgf clamping force
• 0–100 mm adjustable opening
• Accuracy 0.01 mm
• Robust mechanical B-type design

Secure clamping for demanding milling tasks

The vice delivers a 900 kgf clamping force and an adjustable 0–100 mm jaw opening, ensuring reliable fixation of workpieces during heavy milling passes. The combination of high clamping force and a compact footprint reduces vibration and workpiece movement, which in turn helps maintain surface finish and tool life. The vice is suitable for repetitive setups where secure holding is required without frequent re‑clamping, supporting stable production flow and predictable machining results.

Precision and repeatability where it counts

With an accuracy of 0.01 mm, the vice contributes to consistent positioning and repeatable machining tolerances. This level of precision refers to the vice’s ability to hold the workpiece with minimal deviation between successive clamps; it is particularly beneficial in small‑batch production and toolroom tasks where dimensional consistency is critical. The mechanical design minimises play and backlash, translating nominal accuracy into tangible improvements in part quality and reduced rework.

Engineered for workshop efficiency and durability

The mechanical B‑type construction combines simple, robust mechanics with low maintenance demands. At approximately 21.5 kg, the vice is heavy enough to dampen cutting forces yet compact enough for flexible mounting on machine tables. The straightforward mechanical operation reduces the need for auxiliary equipment, while the durable build supports long service intervals and dependable daily use. Clear numeric specifications make integration into existing workflows straightforward and support efficient planning for fixturing and machine loading.

A practical choice for production and jobbing shops

The VBV‑5 milling vice from Vertex offers a pragmatic balance of strength, precision and footprint for a wide range of milling applications. Its repeatable clamping, measurable accuracy and compact dimensions make it well suited to both production benches and specialist jobbing tasks. For purchasers seeking a reliable clamping solution backed by a European distribution partner that acts as a quality filter for the market, this vice represents a solid, long‑term investment in clamping capability.
