SMW Autoblok, a world leader in the design and manufacture of rotational chucks, stationary workholding, tooling and custom engineered solutions for the machine tool industry, introduces the new and unique PLUS5 V5 Zero Point Vise system. The PLUS5 V5 locks and unlocks pins with only 180o rotation. Omnidirectional clamping ensures uniformity while performing precision, all-directional, clamping. This zero-point vise interfaces with all industry-standard products using 52mm or 96mm pin spacing, allowing it to easily become part of your existing workholding system.

The V5 Vise system provides self-centering operation for 5-axis machines. The device has fully protected and sealed lead screws and incorporates SinterGrip inserts for multi-vise integrations and eliminating dove tailing or crimping operations. An excellent quality-price ratio makes the vise ideal to locate, support, and secure workpieces in a variety of manufacturing operations, including machining, welding, and assembly.

The pin locking mechanism consists of a cam that is operated using an eccentric pin. The cam locks all 4 pins simultaneously, which guarantees precision performance and clamping force. The force vector transmission system acts by binding the pins uniformly and in all directions.

Additional features include:

High-precision self-centering clamping with maximum repeatability

Compact design for ease of accessibility

Wide clamping range

Clamping force up to 40kN (80Nm)

Jaw width of 87.5mm
