VQCV-125H-L Universal machine vice (power-assisted, left-hand) by Vertex

The VQCV-125H-L is a power-assisted universal machine vice designed for precision clamping in machining centres and workshop tables, suited to tasks that demand stable fixation and repeatable positioning

• Power-assisted design with 40 kN clamping force
• Left-hand configuration for specialised setups
• 0–165 mm opening range for versatile workpieces

Secure, repeatable clamping for heavy machining

The VQCV-125H-L combines a power-assisted mechanism with a rated 40 kN clamping force to reduce workpiece movement under load and minimise slippage during aggressive cuts. This repeatable clamping improves process reliability and reduces rework, which is particularly relevant for production environments and jobbing shops where throughput and consistency matter. The mechanical drive is straightforward to maintain, offering predictable behaviour across shifts and operators.

Adaptable jaw travel and fine positional accuracy

With an opening range of 0–165 mm and a specified positional accuracy of 0.01 mm, the vice accommodates a wide variety of component sizes while enabling precise alignment for sequential operations. The adjustable jaw travel supports quick set-ups for both short runs and prototype work, and the narrow tolerance contributes to repeatable reference points when using edge-finding or dial indicators. These characteristics make the tool suitable for both fixture work and direct machine table clamping.

Stable mass and left-hand orientation for machine integration

Weighing 53 kg, the vice provides substantial mass that dampens vibration and enhances stability on the machine bed, which helps preserve tool life and surface finish in heavy-duty milling. The left-hand configuration is useful where spindle approach, machine tool layout or workholding fixtures demand a handed arrangement. The robust mechanical construction supports frequent clamping cycles and reduces the need for repositioning during multi-step machining sequences.
