Locksmith and machine tool vises
Locksmith vise designed to fix parts when performing locksmithing and assembly work. The design of the base allows you to deploy the vise from 0° to 360°. There is an anvil on the body. At the request of the customer, the vise can be equipped with replaceable clamping strips designed to perform specific types of work.
The installation of the locksmith vise on the table is carried out using screws and nuts.
According to the specifications, the tool can be of the following varieties:
-
General purpose.
-
With a rotary sponge.
-
With additional sponges.
The described types of vise can be rotary and non-rotary.
The vise is suitable for operations with metals, wooden or plastic products. At the same time, with a softer material, it is worth using protective pads on the steel plates of the vise, so as not to damage the workpiece. This tool will find its place in the home workshop, in the garage, and in industrial workshops.
Machine tool vise designed for fixing workpieces during mechanical processing on milling, drilling, grinding, metal-cutting machines. They can be mounted on the rotary platform of the equipment, which provides a choice of a convenient angle for fixing the part. The design of the vise is optimal for reliable installation on the machine: the flat lower part has long side slits for bolting to the surface. Replaceable pads on the sponges of the device often have V-shaped grooves that improve the vertical and horizontal fixation of cylindrical workpieces.
According to this standard, the vise is divided into several types:
-
With manual drive.
-
With pneumatic drive.
-
With hydraulic drive.
Pneumatic machine vise with hydraulic reinforcement rotary.
Such models are mainly used in manufacturing enterprises, where it is necessary to repeatedly clamp and unclench the machined parts, without the use of physical force. The presence of a hydraulic drive makes it easier and faster for the master to work several times.
When choosing a vise, you need to take into account the distance to which the sponges open, because it depends on which parts can be fixed in them. Locksmith vises will cope with almost all household tasks. When choosing, you should check the method of attaching this tool to the table, as well as for the presence of backlashes, which should not be initially. It is better to choose a vise made of cast iron or steel, but not of powdered metal. For professional use, when it is necessary to clamp the workpieces quite often, it is better to pay attention to steel versions with an anvil, since they are more durable and easily withstand blows.
