Cleveland Ohio – Jergens Inc.’s range of vises for multi-axis machining productivity are available in 75mm and 130mm with a number of mounting options. The self-centering vises feature a low-profile design to allow for a greater part-machining access.
Part of the Fixture Pro line of modular 5-axis workholding, the vises feature a pull-down jaw design to actively reduce jaw lift caused by flex and raising up during the clamping process. These unique vises have an easy centering/re-centering adjustment and quick-change jaws that require no tools. Jaws are reversible and available in step jaws with serrated inserts, aluminum soft jaws, steel soft jaws and hardened step jaws.
Versatile mounting options are compatible with several Jergens platforms including Fixture Pro, Drop & Lock, Quick-Loc, Lang Quick Point, and 5th Axis RockLock. Maximum clamping force is 3,600 lb at 50 lb-ft or torque. In combination with the full-line of Quick Loc pallet systems, the new vise offers versatility and quick-change on vertical, horizontal and multi-axis machining centers.
