VCM-47 mechanical machine vice — 450 kgf clamping force, 0–180 mm opening

The VCM-47 is a mechanical machine vice designed for secure clamping in milling and general machining applications, offering a wide opening and precise hold for diverse workpieces.

• 450 kgf clamping force for secure gripping
• 0–180 mm opening to accept varied workpiece sizes
• Accuracy 0.01 mm for precise machining
• Robust 17.7 kg body for vibration damping

Secure, reliable workholding for consistent machining results

The vice excels where repeatable clamping and process reliability matter. With a 450 kgf rated clamping capacity and a 0–180 mm jaw opening, the unit keeps components firmly located during cutting and finishing operations. This level of hold reduces workpiece movement and tool wear, supporting higher throughput and fewer rejects. The design suits bench-mounted and machine-table applications where a dependable machine vice is required for milling, drilling or light planing tasks.

Precision and stability that support tight tolerances

A guaranteed positioning accuracy of 0.01 mm underlines the vice's suitability for jobs demanding fine tolerances. The substantial mass — 17.7 kg — contributes to stability by damping machine vibrations and preventing micro-movements during machining. For customers new to metrology terms: the accuracy figure denotes the repeatability of the jaw position, ensuring identical set-ups across multiple runs and predictable surface finishes. The combined effect is fewer reworks and improved process control.

Simple integration and durable mechanical design for the workshop

The mechanically driven construction provides a maintenance-friendly alternative to complex hydraulic or pneumatic systems, reducing potential downtime. The mechanical design uses proven components for long service life and straightforward adjustments at the workbench. Supplied dimensions make planning for fixture layouts simple — the compact footprint aids in mounting on standard machine tables while the robust build supports heavy-duty clamping cycles. As a partner, Metav Werkzeuge offers practical purchasing and logistics support from its Emmerich location to streamline supply into the workshop.
