Prism Jaw Attachment VWS — precision prism jaw, lightweight 0.58 kg (Vertex)

The Prism Jaw Attachment VWS is a precision clamping accessory intended for industrial workholding and measurement applications, designed to simplify locating and securing cylindrical or rounded workpieces during machining and inspection tasks.

Compact prism geometry for stable clamping Lightweight: 0.58 kg for easy handling Engineered for repeatable positioning

Accurate locating for consistent process results

The prism geometry provides a stable seat for round and cylindrical components, ensuring accurate locating and improved axial alignment in fixtures and measuring setups. By converting radial contact into a defined V-support, this attachment reduces positional variation and enables repeatable results across batches. The clear mechanical principle behind the design minimises adjustment time and helps maintain consistent tolerances in serial operations.

Ease of handling reduces set-up time

With a mass of 0.58 kg, the prism jaw attachment offers practical benefits for frequent tool changes and reconfigurations. The reduced weight simplifies manual handling and positioning, which contributes to faster set-ups and less operator fatigue in day-to-day workshop use. The compact format is advantageous where space is limited on machine beds or inspection fixtures, providing a neat solution without compromising functional stability.

Integration into workshop workflows and quality routines

The attachment is suitable as an add-on for standard clamping and measuring arrangements, supporting smoother throughput and more reliable inspection cycles. The simple principle of the prism seat means minimal training is required to achieve correct positioning, and the component supports traceable alignment procedures that feed into quality assurance documentation. Where process documentation is required, the use of a dedicated prism support helps standardise fixturing across operators and shifts.

Proven brand and supply chain advantages

Sourced from Vertex, the attachment benefits from established manufacturing and quality practices, making it a dependable choice for workshops seeking robust workholding solutions. Via Metav Werkzeuge, customers gain access to a broad selection of precision aids and the logistical reliability of a European distribution hub, which eases procurement and ensures consistent availability for industrial and trade customers.
