DUAL STATION A floating jaw carrier system and a middle jaw provides dual station functionality and compensates for different sized workpiecs A spring-loaded braking system provides "third-hand" functionality, forcing the front jaw to close first and the rear jaw to close second The middle jaw can positioned off-center to allow greater capacity in the front station SINGLE STATION By removing the center jaw and securing a sliding jaw into a fixed position using a locating pins and a setscrew, the vise is configured for single station operation Side Mounting Optional ground sides avialable for side mounting Side mounting also possible (and recommended) with right angle ball coupler fixtures Machinable Jaws Machinable jaws are used in lieu of master jaws and jaw plates Allows for the largest machinable volume to securely grip odd-shaped parts Machinable Jaws + Side Clearance Machinable jaws are used in lieu of master jaws and jaw plates The sides of the jaws can be machined away for tool clearance to fully machine three sides of each workpiece XL Machinable Jaws Extra large machinable jaws are used in lieu of master jaws and jaw plates Jaws can be rotated 180 degrees to hold different parts on opposite sides Jaws can be used as miniature fixture plates for high density workholding Machinable center and jaw plates A machinable center jaw is used in lieu of a master center jaw with jaw plates Master sliding jaws are used with machinable jaw plates Better economy is achieved compared using machinable sliding jaws when applicable XL Sliding Jaws - Single Station XL machinable jaws are used in lieu of master sliding jaws and jaw plates Massive machinable volume for securlely gripping large workpieces with marring or distortion Center jaw is removed Vise Pallet A monolithic pallet is used in lieu of all jaws Locates to the vise body using precision pins and is secured with the existing jaw carrier slides Eliminates bolt holes for simplified fixture machinable Standard mounting with edge clamps Simplest mounting configuration Six (6) edge clamps ship with every vise as standard equipment Multiple Vises with edge clamps Higher density can be achieved by using custom clamps in between vises Compact subplate Counterbores custom machined to fit different T-slot tables Plates can also be machined to accept edge clamps for table mounting Compact Subplate High density mounting possible Counterbores are custom machined to fit different T-slot tables Multiple Compact Subplates Standard catalog item Counterbores custom machined to fit different T-slot tables Highest accuracy due to ability to indicate and align each subplate separately Highest flexibility due to ability to change subplate spacing Custom one-piece subplate Simplicity of a single piece subplate High density mounting options available Cleanest installation - fewer places for chips to pile up
