VCV-0611S Machine vice — self-centring, 500 kgf clamping | Vertex

The VCV-0611S is a self-centring mechanical machine vice for workshop and production use, optionally supplied with a swivel base for flexible fixturing.

• Self-centring design for fast part alignment
• 500 kgf clamping force for secure hold
• Cast iron body for long-term rigidity
• Swivel base Ø200 mm for flexible positioning

Faster set-up through self-centring alignment

The self-centring mechanism reduces positioning time by aligning the jaws around the workpiece automatically, which improves throughput in batch and small-series production. The self-centring function is particularly beneficial when frequent part changes occur, as setup variability is minimised. With a jaw range of 0–106 mm, small to medium components can be clamped without additional fixtures, leading to fewer auxiliary operations and shorter cycle times.

Secure hold and consistent clamping performance

A clamping force of 500 kgf provides a reliable hold for milling and drilling operations, reducing the risk of workpiece movement under load. The vice’s mechanical actuation delivers repeatable force and stable gripping, which supports dimensional consistency across consecutive parts. The specified accuracy of 0.01 mm ensures fine positional control for precision machining tasks where repeatability matters.

Durable construction for workshop environments

Constructed from cast iron, the vice offers high rigidity and vibration damping, extending tool and machine life while improving surface finish. The robust build, combined with a gross weight of 11.1 kg, gives a stable base for machining without excessive mass. The vice is a mechanical type designed for everyday industrial use, requiring routine lubrication and inspection to maintain long-term operational reliability.

Flexible mounting and practical dimensions

An available swivel base with a Ø200×22 mm foot enables adaptable orientation on machine beds or workbenches, allowing efficient access for multi-face machining. The compact external dimensions of 185×61×80 mm make the unit suitable where space is limited yet a secure clamp is required. The combination of compact footprint and robust clamping capability supports versatile workshop layouts and reduces the need for multiple specialised fixtures.

FAQ

What materials can be machined while clamped in this vice?
The VCV-0611S is built from cast iron and suitable for clamping a wide range of metals and engineering plastics; selection of cutting parameters should follow material recommendations.

Is the swivel base included with the vice?
The vice is offered with an optional swivel base; the product description indicates availability with a Drehbasis (swivel base) as a configurable feature.

How does the self-centring function improve throughput?
The self-centring mechanism centres the workpiece automatically between the jaws, reducing manual alignment time and improving repeatability for batch processes with the VCV-0611S.

What mounting footprint is required for stable installation?
The swivel base has a foot diameter of Ø200×22 mm, and the compact vice dimensions (185×61×80 mm) facilitate mounting on standard machine tables and benches.

What maintenance is recommended to preserve accuracy?
Regular cleaning of sliding surfaces, periodic lubrication of the lead screw and inspection of jaw faces will help maintain the specified 0.01 mm accuracy and prolong service life.
