Drill and Milling Vice VW-5 — three-stage adjustable, 1600 kgf clamping force by Vertex

A practical mechanical vice, VW-5, engineered for drilling and milling operations in workshops and small production lines, offering three-stage adjustment for rapid repositioning and secure clamping.

• Three-stage adjustable indexing
• 1600 kgf clamping force
• 0–145 mm jaw opening range
• Accuracy 0.01 mm for repeatable set-ups

Precision clamping that keeps production moving

The machine vice delivers a measurable improvement in machining consistency thanks to its accuracy of 0.01 mm, which supports tight tolerances during drilling and milling. The specified clamping force of 1600 kgf ensures workpieces remain firmly held during heavy cuts, reducing vibration and the risk of movement. This level of repeatability shortens inspection cycles and lowers scrap rates, translating into reliable throughput in batch or single-piece production.

Flexible adjustment to speed up set-up and changeover

Equipped with a three-stage adjustable indexing mechanism and a jaw opening of 0–145 mm, the vice allows quick adaptation to different part sizes without long tool reconfiguration. The compact footprint (580 x 358 x 210 mm) and substantial mass (49.4 kg) give a steady working base that resists tipping and twisting under load, improving surface quality and tool life. These features together reduce non-productive time and simplify fixture planning for varied machining tasks.

Built for workshop integration and robust operation

As a mechanical machine vice designed for both drilling and milling applications, it integrates into standard machine tables and fixturing setups with minimal modification. The construction emphasises stable contact and consistent jaw parallelism, lowering the need for frequent readjustment. For operations demanding dependable clamping rather than electronic complexity, this vice offers a straightforward, low-maintenance solution that supports continuous production environments while maintaining machining precision.
