Precision machine vice VMP-6C — modular, optional hydraulic clamping by Vertex

A Precision machine vice VMP-6C designed for secure clamping in machining environments, available in a modular format with an optional hydraulic upgrade

• High clamping force 2000 kgf
• Precision accuracy 0.01 mm
• Opening range 0–400 mm
• Modular design with hydraulic option

Secure clamping for consistent machining results

The vice delivers a measured clamping force of 2000 kgf, providing secure workholding for demanding milling and machining operations. With an opening range of 0–400 mm, the unit accommodates a broad span of component sizes without frequent fixture changes, reducing setup time and improving workflow efficiency. The solid construction, combined with the vice’s mass, stabilises components during cutting, which helps to reduce chatter and rework. This results-focused design translates into fewer interruptions on the shop floor and better utilisation of machine hours.

Built for repeatability and accurate positioning

Designed to meet tight tolerances, the vice offers an accuracy of 0.01 mm, ensuring repeatable positioning across batches. The modular concept allows upgrades and tailored fixturing, while the hydraulic option gives consistent clamping pressure where vibration or variable part geometries demand it. For shops migrating from manual setups to more automated processes, the adaptable configuration supports integration into CNC workflows and shortens the path to reliable, measurable quality. The measurable performance supports lean production and predictable output.

Robust materials and construction for long service life

Manufactured from alloy steel, the vice balances rigidity with resilience for continuous use in an industrial environment. The unit’s mass (approx. 38.1 kg) contributes to stability on the machine table and helps maintain alignment during heavy cuts. Modular components are engineered for serviceability, so maintenance intervals remain straightforward and downtime is limited. Where surface wear is a concern, the vice’s build reduces the frequency of repositioning and recalibration, supporting consistent part quality over extended production runs.

Practical integration and benefits for the workshop

As a mechanical vice with an optional hydraulic configuration, the VMP-6C is suitable for a wide range of machining tasks, from prototyping to repetitive series production. The combination of precision and a wide opening makes it useful for mixed-batch work, while the modular approach enables adaptation to specific clamping setups without wholesale replacement. For buyers seeking proof points, the vice’s measurable specifications make it straightforward to calculate productivity gains and justify investment through reduced cycle times and fewer rejects. Metav’s product advice can assist in selecting the most appropriate configuration for a given machine and application.
