Powerful and affordable motion control at last!


 

The most convenient way to hold small parts for milling is the MILLING VISE.  Milling vises are different from other machine vises in that they are designed to hold the movable jaw down while clamping, eliminating any chance for the jaw to lift.  A cheap drill press vise is almost useless on a milling machine because you can't accurately allign the machine to it.

The MILLING VISE is sized just right to be the perfect working companion to the Milling Machine.  The jaws are 1.50" (38.1mm) wide by 1.00" (25.4mm) deep and open a full 2.00" (50.8 mm).  The fixed jaw has both a horizontal and vertical "V" groove to facilitate holding round bar stock.  The vise includes two clamps for use in attaching it to the Milling Machine.  These clamps are the same as the 4-Jaw Hold Down Set (P/N 3058).

  Shown in this detail is the Pull-Down Feature.  Tightening in direction F1 produces forces to both hold the part (F2) and keep jaws from slipping (F3).
