VJ-500 mechanical milling vice — 1500 kgf clamping force, 0–245 mm opening (Vertex)

The VJ-500 is a mechanical milling vice with an extra-large opening, engineered for heavy-duty clamping in professional workshops and machining centres

• 1500 kgf high clamping force
• Large opening 0–245 mm for oversized workpieces
• 0.02 mm positional accuracy
• Robust mechanical design, 34 kg for stability

Strong clamping for uninterrupted milling productivity

The vice delivers a high clamping force of 1500 kgf, which translates into secure workholding for milling operations where vibration and cutting forces are significant. The substantial mass and robust mechanical construction reduce micro-movements during machining, improving surface finish and extending tool life. Designed for integration on milling tables, this vice supports reliable cycle times and fewer reworks, helping to streamline production workflows and maintain consistent throughput.

Precision that reduces set-up time and rework

With a stated accuracy of 0.02 mm, the vice supports precise clamping repeatability, which is essential for batch production and jig-based set-ups. This level of accuracy enables tighter tolerances without extensive measurement routines between operations. The positional stability afforded by the design minimises the need for corrective machining, so inspection effort is reduced and quality control becomes more predictable across series production.

Accommodates large and irregular workpieces with ease

An opening range of 0–245 mm provides flexibility for larger components and awkward shapes that standard vices cannot secure efficiently. The extra-large opening and adaptable jaw geometry allow secure seating of asymmetric parts, while maintaining clamp pressure across contact surfaces. This capability reduces the number of dedicated fixtures required on the shop floor and enables faster changeovers between different workpiece sizes.

Built for workshop endurance and easy maintenance

The mechanical nature of the vice emphasises durability: fewer electronic components mean straightforward upkeep and long service intervals. The substantial body mass of 34 kg contributes to cutting stability and resistance to lateral forces, while simple, serviceable elements allow for quick inspections and preventive maintenance. These characteristics make the product a practical choice for environments where robustness and uptime matter most.

Supply assurance and partner support for production readiness

Sourced from Vertex and supported through Metav Werkzeuge, the vice comes with the backing of a distributor focused on reliable European supply. Metav’s role as a quality filter and logistics hub in Emmerich ensures prompt availability and consistent product standards, which is central to reducing procurement complexity for workshops and industrial buyers.
