VHT-6 Hydraulic Machine Vice by Vertex — 4,500 kgf clamping force, 0–300 mm opening

The VHT-6 is a hydraulic machine vice engineered for high-precision workholding in machining centres and milling applications, offering heavy-duty clamping and a forward-tilting function for angled setups

• 4,500 kgf clamping force
• Opening range 0–300 mm
• Forward-tilting design for angled machining
• 0.01 mm positional accuracy

Secure heavy-duty clamping for consistent machining results

The hydraulic workholding system delivers reliable clamping with a rated 4,500 kgf force, ensuring stable fixation of workpieces during heavy cutting and repetitive production runs. Hydraulic actuation reduces manual effort and maintains consistent pressure, which improves surface finish and tool life compared with manual vises. With a declared positional accuracy of 0.01 mm, the vice supports tasks where tight tolerances are required; this level of precision contributes directly to reduced rework rates and predictable process outputs.

Flexible tilting and compact footprint to speed setup

A forward-tilting jaw assembly allows angled machining without complex re-fixturing, cutting set-up time on multi-axis programmes. The unit’s overall footprint of 800×300×290 mm and a mass of 88 kg give a low centre of gravity for stable clamping while remaining compact enough for standard machine tables. The 0–300 mm opening accommodates a broad range of part sizes, enabling flexible batch changes and fewer toolings for mixed production — a pragmatic benefit in small to medium workshops and production cells.

Precision integration into the production environment

Designed for shop-fitment and reliable repeatability, the vice’s hydraulic operation promotes uniform clamping cycles and lowers operator variation. Mechanical wear is reduced through controlled actuation, which supports longer intervals between maintenance when compared with purely mechanical clamping systems. Identification data such as SKU VHT-6 and GTIN 4061905091216 simplify procurement and inventory processes, while the combination of robust mass and finely adjustable opening supports accurate positioning on machine tables and in automated fixtures.
