VCV-4D Machine vice by Vertex – double opening, 450 kgf clamping force

The VCV-4D is a precision machine vice with dual opening jaws designed for reliable clamping during milling, drilling and general machining operations

• Double opening 0–50 mm (two jaws)
• 450 kgf clamping force
• High repeatability with 0.01 mm accuracy
• Robust 18.2 kg construction

Precise, repeatable clamping that raises machining quality

The VCV-4D stands out for its accuracy and consistency: a specified repeatability of 0.01 mm ensures that workpieces remain within tight tolerances across repeated setups. This high level of precision reduces scrappage and rework, improving first-pass yield in series production. The measurable repeatability also simplifies process validation and quality documentation for production control, making the vice suitable for toolrooms and small-batch manufacturing where dimensional integrity is essential.

Faster setup and improved workflow through a dual-jaw concept

The vice's double opening design, with two jaws operating across an opening range of 0–50 mm, enables parallel clamping of paired parts or rapid repositioning without full re-clamping. The configuration shortens cycle times for batch tasks and supports effective fixturing strategies on the machine table. For operations that require frequent part changes, the dual jaws reduce downtime and help sustain machining throughput, presenting a clear efficiency advantage in both prototyping and repetitive machining.

Built for durability under workshop conditions

Constructed to a total weight of 18.2 kg, the device provides a stable base that resists vibration during heavy cuts, supporting consistent tool life and surface finish. The specified 450 kgf clamping force delivers secure grip on a wide range of components without overloading the workpiece. Robustness in mechanical design translates into longer service intervals and predictable performance, which lowers total cost of ownership in the medium term and supports continuous production cycles.

Simple integration and straightforward handling for everyday use

The vice requires no specialised consumables and integrates easily with standard machine tables and fixtures. Adjustment and mounting follow familiar workshop practises, enabling fast commissioning on CNC mills or manual machines. The compact footprint (469 x 108 x 92 mm) balances clamping capacity and table space, allowing for flexible fixturing layouts. For teams seeking dependable, low-complexity clamping, this device combines practical ergonomics with the technical features needed for repeatable results.

FAQ

Is the vice suitable for repeated production runs?
The vice offers a repeatability of 0.01 mm, which makes the VCV-4D well suited to repeated production tasks where consistent clamping and dimensional control are required.

Can the vice clamp two separate parts at once?
Yes, the dual opening arrangement and the 0–50 mm range allow parallel or staggered clamping, enabling handling of paired components or faster changeovers.

What clamping force can be expected during heavy machining?
The vice provides a clamping force of 450 kgf, delivering secure hold for a wide range of milling and drilling operations without compromising stability.

Does the VCV-4D require special fixtures to mount on a machine table?
The unit is designed to integrate with standard machine tables and common fixturing methods; no specialised mounting equipment is mandatory.

How does the vice contribute to process reliability?
By combining high repeatability and a stable structural mass (18.2 kg), the vice reduces movement and vibration, helping to maintain tool life and surface finish consistency across production cycles.
