VMP-8BH precision machine vice — modular hydraulic clamping, 4500 kgf | Vertex

The VMP-8BH is a modular precision machine vice designed for hydraulic clamping in machining centres and toolroom environments, providing robust workholding for a wide range of production tasks

• Modular design for flexible configuration
• Hydraulic clamping option 4500 kgf
• Opening range 0–300 mm for versatile parts
• High precision repeatability 0.01 mm

Consistent clamping and measurable process stability

A workholding solution that delivers measurable gains: the vice combines a high clamping force with proven repeatability to reduce part movement and rework. The specified 4500 kgf clamping capacity, together with a repeatability of 0.01 mm, means setups are held firmly during heavy cuts and fine finishing alike. In machining, reduced vibration and secure contact translate directly into longer tool life and fewer rejected parts, so cycle times and scrap rates can both be improved. The body is manufactured from alloy steel, giving structural rigidity that supports consistent results over extended production runs.

Flexible modularity for rapid adaptation

The modular concept allows the vice to be reconfigured for different tasks or integrated into varied fixturing arrangements. A hydraulic option is available for applications requiring fast, reliable clamping without manual torqueing, which streamlines changeovers and standardises clamping pressure across multiple stations. The modular approach simplifies retrofitting onto machine tables and supports rapid tooling changes. Where predictable clamping and repeatable force are required, this clamping system reduces set-up variability and helps maintain steady output quality across shifts.

Compact footprint, simple integration and clear maintenance advantages

Designed for workshop integration, the vice's compact dimensions of 170 x 595 x 135 mm (L x W x H) and a mass of 69 kg make it straightforward to mount and align on common machine tables. The opening span of 0–300 mm covers many common component sizes, reducing the need for multiple dedicated fixtures. Service and maintenance are kept simple by the modular construction, which allows individual components to be inspected or replaced without dismantling the entire assembly. The precision specification means that inspection intervals are predictable and calibration routines can be planned into normal maintenance cycles, supporting reliable long-term operation.
