VMV-20 low-profile machine vice — 0–74 mm clamping, 0.005 mm precision (Vertex)

A VMV-20 low-profile machine vice engineered to secure small workpieces with high repeatability in confined machining and inspection setups.

• Compact footprint 47×150×57 mm
• Clamping range 0–74 mm
• High repeatability with 0.005 mm accuracy
• Lightweight, robust 2 kg construction

Space-saving clamping that improves workflow

The low-profile design delivers a compact footprint that reduces interference with spindle travel and peripheral fixtures. With external dimensions of 47×150×57 mm, the vice fits tight machine tables and measuring stations while providing a useful clamping range of 0–74 mm, so smaller components can be gripped without needing larger, more obstructive devices. This compactness shortens set-up time and allows more flexibility in fixture design, supporting efficient sequencing on milling, drilling or inspection operations.

Consistent precision for repeatable results

Accuracy and repeatability are central to consistent part quality: the vice offers 0.005 mm accuracy, which stabilises reference points during machining and minimises rework caused by positional variance. The controlled clamping action ensures repeatable jaw positions and reliable part datum retention, enabling reproducible toolpaths and predictable inspection outcomes. For process planners and quality engineers, this level of precision reduces adjustment cycles and supports tighter tolerances in serial production. The VMV-20 is purpose-built to keep repeatability within narrow limits for precise workflows.

Integrates easily into production and inspection workflows

A compact, sturdy construction at 2 kg provides stability without excessive mass, easing handling and rotation of fixtures between stations. The low-profile geometry prevents collision with tall tool holders and simplifies access for probes and cutters, improving machining safety and cycle reliability. Built for clamping small parts, the vice adapts to a variety of fixtures and can be incorporated into jigs or dedicated inspection rigs, supporting a smoother handover between manufacturing and metrology processes. Supplied by Vertex, the device complements a workshop’s toolkit where space, accuracy and repeatability matter.
