VRTW-1018A Magnetic chuck (Type A) — compact 100 x 175 mm, 50 mm height by Vertex

VRTW-1018A is a magnetic chuck designed for precise clamping of small to medium workpieces, offering a very fine pole distribution for improved contact and machining accuracy.

• Very fine pole distribution
• Compact 100 x 175 mm footprint
• 50 mm overall height
• Robust construction, 7 kg mass

Precision clamping in a compact footprint

The magnetic chuck delivers focused holding power on a small surface area without adding unnecessary bulk to the machine table. With a 100 x 175 mm footprint and a low profile of 50 mm, this unit is suited to tight set-ups where vertical clearance is limited. The very fine pole distribution improves contact on thin or irregular parts, reducing the need for additional fixturing and increasing effective machining area. Such a configuration supports higher part density on the table while maintaining the precision required for repeatable surface finishes.

Predictable holding force for consistent machining results

Engineered to provide a stable magnetic rating, the chuck is specified with a magnetic force of 30, ensuring reliable grip during milling, grinding and light turning operations. Predictable retention reduces vibration and micro-movement, which in turn lowers scrap rates and rework. The magnetic system's behaviour is straightforward to assess during set-up, enabling quicker cycle starts and improved throughput — a clear rational advantage in production and small-batch manufacturing where process consistency matters.

Streamlined integration into existing workflows

Designed for workshops that prioritise efficient fixturing, the unit’s compact mass and profile simplify table planning and toolpath clearance. The chuck is compatible with standard machining processes and can be incorporated into jigs or dedicated fixtures where space is a premium. For equipment selection and integration advice, Metav’s specialist offering combines product range and practical guidance to help match the clamping solution to the intended process, thereby reducing procurement complexity and downtime during implementation.

Durable design with minimal maintenance requirements

At a mass of 7 kg, the construction balances solidity with manageable handling during installation and storage. The fine pole layout is less prone to localised wear on contact points, supporting longer intervals between maintenance tasks. Regular cleaning of pole faces and magnetic surfaces preserves clamping performance; when serviced according to routine workshop practice, the chuck continues to deliver the stable holding characteristics that contribute to dependable production output.

FAQ

What materials can be clamped with this magnetic chuck?
The VRTW-1018A magnetic chuck is intended primarily for ferromagnetic materials; its very fine pole distribution improves contact with thin sheets and small components made of steel and similar alloys.

How does the fine pole distribution benefit machining?
A finer pole pitch increases contact area on small or irregular parts, reducing local deformation and improving stability during milling and grinding with the VRTW-1018A.

Is the chuck suitable for low-clearance setups?
Yes. The 50 mm overall height and compact 100 x 175 mm footprint make the unit well suited to installations where vertical space is limited.

How heavy is the unit and how does that affect handling?
The unit weighs 7 kg, offering a robust feel while remaining manageable for workshop personnel during mounting and removal.

Can the VRTW-1018A be used on rotary tables or specialised fixtures?
The compact dimensions and stable magnetic rating make the chuck appropriate for integration on rotary tables and bespoke fixtures where small form-factor workholding is required.
