Hydraulic Machine Vice VH-6 — Hydraulic clamping vice with 4500 kgf and 0–300 mm opening (Vertex)

The Hydraulic Machine Vice VH-6 is a hydraulic clamping vice designed for reliable, high-force workholding on machine tables, offering a 0–300 mm opening for versatile part sizes.

• 4500 kgf clamping force
• 0–300 mm opening range
• Precision 0.02 mm accuracy
• Robust 63 kg mass

Secure clamping that reduces setup time

The vice delivers 4500 kgf of clamping capacity, providing a consistently firm hold that minimises part movement during heavy cutting. High clamping force reduces the need for repeated adjustments and shortens setup cycles, which increases throughput on milling and drilling tasks. The hydraulic actuation provides smooth pressure application, so clamping is both repeatable and reliable even under variable cutting loads.

Built for precision and repeatable accuracy

Designed with a focus on repeatability, the vice achieves 0.02 mm positional accuracy, which supports tight tolerances in serial production. Precision seating and a rigid base dampen vibration and improve surface finish, turning clamping into an integral part of the machining process rather than a limiting factor. For users less familiar with technical terms: repeatability refers to the vice’s ability to return a workpiece to the same position each time, ensuring consistent results across runs.

Versatile capacity for a broad range of parts

With a 0–300 mm opening and a compact footprint, this hydraulic vice accommodates a wide variety of component sizes while keeping the work area clear. The solid 63 kg construction gives a low centre of gravity and resists tip or shift when machining tall or uneven parts. The vice’s geometry is suitable for both one-off jobs and batch production, making it a practical choice for job shops and production lines that require flexible clamping solutions.

Practical maintenance and workshop integration

Hydraulic operation simplifies clamping control and reduces mechanical wear compared with purely mechanical vises. Routine maintenance is limited to basic checks of the hydraulic connections and seals; regular inspection keeps performance stable over time. Where necessary, spare parts and service guidance are available from Vertex and our distribution partners, ensuring that the vice remains a long-term asset in the workshop.
