Vertex VSR-63 Simple Dividing Head – 160 mm chuck, three- or four-jaw

The VSR-63 simple dividing head is a compact, bench-suitable indexing and workholding device designed for precise positioning and repeatable operations in toolrooms and small workshops.

• 160 mm chuck diameter
• Compatible with three- or four-jaw chucks
• Compact 139 mm overall height
• Solid 18 kg construction

Precise indexing for repeatable production

The dividing head delivers consistent precision for repetitive tasks, using a robust spindle and a clearly legible indexing plate to reduce setup time and minimise repositioning errors. With the 160 mm chuck as a stable workholding platform, operators benefit from accurate angular positioning across multiple operations. This measureable repeatability supports higher throughput and fewer rejected parts in series work.

Compact build that fits the workshop

A low overall profile of 139 mm height and a substantial 18 kg mass form a stable base that resists vibration during cuts and drilling. The compact footprint makes the device suitable for bench mounting where space is limited, while the solid construction ensures long-term mechanical stability. These attributes combine to reduce rework and increase confidence in everyday shop-floor use.

Flexible workholding for varied parts

Equipped for use with a three- or four-jaw chuck, the unit accommodates both irregular and cylindrical workpieces without complex changeovers. The adaptable chuck options enable secure clamping of asymmetric components as well as concentric pieces, supporting diverse tasks with a single indexing device. This versatility reduces tooling changes and streamlines mixed-production workflows.

Low-maintenance and straightforward operation

The simple mechanical design prioritises reliability and ease of maintenance. Routine checks and basic lubrication maintain the indexing accuracy, while the straightforward clamping arrangement keeps setup times low. For operators transitioning from basic fixtures, the device provides a clear learning curve and dependable results without elaborate service requirements.
