Consistent heavy-duty clamping for repeatable results

The vice delivers a measurable advantage where secure holding and repeatability matter most. With a clamping force of 2000 kgf and construction from alloy steel, the unit provides a stable workholding platform that reduces part movement and supports tight tolerances. The 0.01 mm accuracy specification reflects controlled manufacture and finishing processes; this level of precision reduces setup iterations and lowers scrap rates in serial production. For workshops seeking predictable outcomes, the robust clamping performance directly translates into fewer interruptions and more consistent machining cycles.

Flexible modularity to match production needs

Modularity is at the core of the design: the vice can be configured as a purely mechanical device or adapted with a hydraulic option to suit higher-throughput operations. The adjustable 0–200 mm opening covers a wide range of workpiece sizes, allowing a single fixture to replace multiple dedicated jigs. Modular elements simplify retrofitting and changeovers, so integration into existing machining centres is straightforward. The option to add hydraulic actuation supports faster cycle times where automatic clamping and unclamping contribute to overall productivity gains.

Precision that supports quality assurance and measurement

Accurate clamping reduces variation at the workpiece and eases downstream inspection. The vice’s 0.01 mm positional reliability helps maintain nominal dimensions through machining, which simplifies quality control and shortens measurement loops. Where measurement equipment and inspection processes are employed, stable fixturing limits the influence of fixture-induced errors, enabling clearer comparison between part data and design tolerances. This vice therefore acts as a practical tool for achieving reproducible quality rather than a variable source of error.

Durable construction and compact footprint for workshop use

Built from alloy steel and weighing 43.7 kg, the unit balances mass for vibration damping with a compact footprint of 145 x 455 x 118 mm, making it suitable for many machine tables without excessive overhang. The solid build avoids deformation under load and supports reliable clamping cycles over prolonged use. Modular configuration and standardised interfaces facilitate maintenance and spare-part management, while the vice’s dimensions and mass contribute to stable machining performance without occupying unnecessary table space.
