200x400mm Magnetic Chuck 50mm Height, 26 kN Holding Force - Vertex

The combination of a compact 200 x 400 mm footprint, a substantial 32 kg base and a defined 50 mm height delivers stable fixturing and reliable machining results. The measured magnetic force 26 reduces re-clamping and supports consistent throughput. Order the VG-816 directly via Metav Werkzeuge or ask our consultants if needed.

VG-816 Magnetic Clamping Plate – Vertex, 200 x 400 mm, 50 mm height

The VG-816 is a magnetic clamping plate designed for secure workpiece fixturing in machining and inspection applications.

• Compact 200 x 400 mm footprint
• Robust 50 mm overall height
• High holding power: magnetic force 26
• Solid 32 kg base for stability

Stable support for repeatable machining results

The heavy-duty construction and defined geometry provide a stable platform for workholding, reducing vibration and improving surface finish. With a 200 x 400 mm contact area and a substantial 32 kg mass, the device increases resistance to torsion and movement during machining. The specified 50 mm overall height supports consistent tool offsets and alignment on the machine table, contributing to predictable results and fewer scrapped parts.

Faster set-up and measurable process gains

A uniform magnetic force 26 across the surface helps to shorten preparation times and reduces the need for mechanical clamping. This consistency enhances repeatability, so successive parts maintain the same datum and orientation without time-consuming re-adjustments. For production environments where cycle time matters, the improved hold and diminished fixturing variance translate directly into higher effective throughput and lower per-part handling time.

Compact form for flexible workshop integration

The modest footprint and defined height make the clamping plate simple to position on many machine tables without compromising access or visibility. The substantial mass provides inherent damping while remaining compact enough to be transferred between stations where a stable magnetic base is required. The straightforward form factor supports efficient fixture planning and quicker machine changeovers, helping operations to remain responsive to varied job demands.

Predictable quality through quantifiable specifications

The combination of listed dimensions, weight and magnetic force offers a clear, verifiable basis for selecting the right clamping solution for a given process. The measurable characteristics make it easier to compare alternatives and ensure the chosen device meets specific stiffness and holding requirements. This transparency supports quality assurance efforts and aids process documentation for audits or continuous improvement programmes.

FAQ

What applications suit this magnetic clamping plate best?
The VG-816 magnetic clamping plate by Vertex is suitable where stable, repeatable fixturing is required for machining and inspection tasks that benefit from magnetic holding.

How are parts typically secured to the plate?
Workpieces are held by the plate’s magnetic field; the VG-816 provides uniform attraction across its 200 x 400 mm area to limit the need for additional mechanical clamps.

What maintenance is required to retain performance?
Periodic cleaning of the plate surface and inspection for wear or contamination preserves the magnetic contact; the VG-816’s robust build reduces the frequency of maintenance interventions.

Can the plate be moved between machines?
The 32 kg mass of the VG-816 gives good stability while still allowing relocation between stations when required by production flow.

How do the stated dimensions affect setup?
The defined 200 x 400 mm footprint and 50 mm height provide repeatable offsets and predictable fixturing geometry, simplifying setup and tooling alignment.
