VH-6L Hydraulic machine vice — 4,500 kgf clamping force, 0–355 mm opening (Vertex)

A VH-6L Hydraulic machine vice engineered for secure, high-precision clamping in industrial machine tool environments.

• 4,500 kgf clamping force for secure holding
• Adjustable 0–355 mm jaw opening
• Repeatability ±0.02 mm precision
• Robust 63 kg heavy construction

Secure heavy-duty holding to reduce setup time

The combination of high clamping force and hydraulic actuation delivers reliable fixation for workpieces under heavy cutting loads. Hydraulic clamping converts operator input into consistent pressure, so the vice maintains a constant hold during milling, drilling and turning operations. This reduces the need for repeated checks and corrective rework, helping to maintain production throughput. The specified 4,500 kgf rating is a clear indicator of the unit’s capacity for demanding machining tasks.

Precision that supports tight tolerances

Built for repeatable positioning, the vice offers an accuracy rating of 0.02, expressed here as repeatability in the clamping position. For users unfamiliar with the term, repeatability describes how consistently the jaw closes to the same position when clamping identical parts. That consistency is essential when machining to tight dimensional tolerances, as it limits part-to-part variation and reduces downstream inspection effort.

Compact footprint with industrial-grade build quality

Measuring 620 × 332 × 176 mm and weighing 63 kg, the unit delivers a compact footprint without compromising rigidity. The heavy construction dampens vibration and resists deformation under load, preserving cutting-edge life and dimensional stability. A relatively small mounting envelope means the vice integrates easily on machine tables where space is at a premium while still offering the stability expected from larger workholding systems.

Straightforward integration and operational benefits

Hydraulic operation simplifies clamping procedures and delivers consistent force across cycles, which benefits cycle-time reliability. The wide jaw opening of 0–355 mm accommodates a broad range of workpiece sizes, reducing the need for multiple fixtures. For workshops seeking dependable, repeatable workholding that supports a smooth production flow, this hydraulic vice presents a practical balance of precision, robustness and operational efficiency.
