VNC-5AD Axial Drive with Smooth Jaws – Clamping Accessory by Vertex

The VNC-5AD is an axial-drive clamping accessory designed to deliver consistent holding force and gentle contact for parts on compatible VNC-FV clamping systems.

• Axial drive for consistent clamping
• Smooth jaws minimise workpiece marking
• Compact size 124 x 78 x 52 mm
• Lightweight construction at 2.08 kg

Precise clamping that supports repeatable production

The axial drive mechanism provides a direct, linear clamping action that converts spindle movement into uniform holding force. This design reduces lateral play and supports repeatable positioning, which is especially valuable in series production and inspection tasks. By avoiding variable radial forces, the unit helps maintain process stability and reduces rework, delivering measurable efficiency gains in every shift.

Gentle jaws to protect finished surfaces

Equipped with smooth jaws, this clamping accessory is optimised for components where surface integrity matters. The jaw finish spreads contact pressure more evenly than serrated alternatives, thereby reducing marking on soft or pre-finished parts. For applications where cosmetic appearance or tight tolerances are critical, the smoother contact improves first-pass yield and lowers downstream corrective work.

Compact footprint for flexible integration

With dimensions of 124 x 78 x 52 mm and a weight of 2.08 kg, the unit occupies minimal space on fixtures and is suitable for retrofitting into existing clamping stations. The compact form factor simplifies machine integration and leaves room for additional tooling or sensors, enabling more flexible cell layouts without compromising stability. The accessory’s format supports quick changeovers and keeps the work envelope efficient.

FAQ

Is the unit compatible with other clamping systems?
The VNC-5AD is specified for use with VNC-FV systems; compatibility with other systems should be checked against mounting interfaces and clamping stroke requirements.

Will the smooth jaws prevent part marking on delicate materials?
Smooth jaws on the Vertex VNC-5AD reduce localised pressure peaks and help minimise surface marking on sensitive components compared with serrated alternatives.

How does the axial drive improve repeatability?
Axial-drive action provides direct linear clamping force, reducing lateral force variation and supporting repeatable positioning in cyclic production.

What are the installation space requirements?
The compact dimensions (124 x 78 x 52 mm) and a weight of 2.08 kg make the unit suitable for tight fixtures; check available clearance on the VNC-FV station prior to installation.

Is the VNC-5AD ready to install or are additional parts required?
The accessory is supplied as described; any adapter plates or mounting hardware required for a specific machine interface must be confirmed before ordering.
