VDV-30 Precision grinding vice with threaded spindle by Vertex

VDV-30 is a precision grinding vice designed for secure clamping in fine finishing and grinding applications, combining a compact footprint with a threaded spindle for consistent, vibration-resistant workholding

• 0.005 mm precision for fine grinding
• 0–71 mm adjustable jaw opening
• Robust SK2 tool steel construction
• Threaded spindle for secure clamping

High-precision results for finishing operations

The vice delivers a verified accuracy of 0.005 mm, enabling repeatable positioning during fine grinding and finishing tasks. Such precision reduces rework and supports tight tolerances when producing optical fits, mould components or precision mechanical parts. The compact design concentrates mass where it matters so the clamping force is steady; this yields improved surface finishes and more predictable cycle times for workshop processes.

Stable clamping and material suitability

Constructed from SK2 tool steel, the unit offers a hard-wearing contact surface suitable for frequent clamping cycles without excessive wear. The threaded spindle provides controlled, backlash-minimised movement for repeatable jaw travel across the 0–71 mm range, while the vice mass of 5.7 kg contributes to stability on the machine table. For users unfamiliar with SK2, it denotes a high-carbon tool steel commonly used where rigidity and wear resistance are required in clamping tools.

Compact form for efficient workshop integration

With external dimensions of 72 x 180 x 70 mm, the vice occupies little table space yet provides a robust platform for precision grinding. The compact footprint simplifies fixture planning on surface grinders and toolroom machines, and the measured mass helps damp vibration during finishing passes. For procurement and long-term supply needs, Metav’s quality-filtered logistics ensure steady availability and traceability for production environments.

FAQ

What tolerance can be expected from the vice in regular use?
The vice is specified with an accuracy of 0.005 mm; the Vertex VDV-30 maintains repeatability under normal grinding conditions when properly mounted and used.

Which materials can be clamped reliably with this vice?
The construction in SK2 tool steel supports secure clamping of typical machined metals and workpieces used in finishing tasks; soft jaws or pads may be used for delicate surfaces.

How large is the jaw opening and how does that affect part size?
The jaw opening ranges from 0 to 71 mm, allowing the VDV-30 to accommodate a wide span of small to medium components commonly encountered in toolroom and precision grinding.

Is the threaded spindle suitable for repeatable positioning?
Yes — the threaded spindle delivers controlled travel and reduced backlash, contributing to repeatable positioning and consistent clamping pressure on successive parts.

Can the vice be mounted directly to a grinder table?
The compact dimensions and mass of the vice make it suitable for direct mounting on many surface grinders and toolroom tables; ensure correct fixturing for optimal stability.
