VMC-6PD Pneumatic Precision Machine Vice — 4,000 kgf Clamping, 0–100 mm Opening by Vertex

VMC-6PD is a pneumatic precision machine vice designed for secure clamping in CNC and production machining environments, offering a compact footprint and double-opening function for efficient part handling.

• 4,000 kgf clamping force
• 0–100 mm versatile opening
• Accuracy 0.01 mm repeatability
• Cast-iron body for vibration damping

Consistent precision that reduces rework

The vice delivers industrial-grade accuracy 0.01 mm, providing stable positioning for serial machining tasks. High clamping integrity from the 4,000 kgf rating minimises workpiece movement during heavy cuts, which reduces scrap rates and downstream rework. The result is a measurable improvement in first-pass yield and reproducible results across batches, making the vice a rational choice for shops seeking predictable throughput and lower non‑productive time.

Faster cycle times with pneumatic double opening

Pneumatic actuation enables rapid clamp and release cycles, streamlining automated workflows. The pneumatic actuation and double-opening design shorten handling times by allowing jaws to open on either side, which is particularly advantageous in indexed or palletised systems. The 0–100 mm opening range supports a broad part size spectrum without frequent setup changes. For operations migrating from manual to automated clamping, the vice’s repeatable air-driven mechanism simplifies integration and increases net productive time on the machine.

Robust construction for stable machining and long service life

A cast iron body provides mass and damping, absorbing cutting forces and vibrations for improved surface finish and tool life. The vice’s substantial mass (approx. 63 kg) contributes to stable clamping on the machine table and reduces micro‑movement under load. Designed for workshop environments, the vice combines durable materials with straightforward maintenance routines, supporting continuous operation in both batch production and precision jobbing applications.
