5-Axis Vises and Expanded Line of Small Machine Table Workholding
August 1, 2016
Kurt's IMTS 2016 exhibit will feature new expanded DoveLock 5-axis workholding line including two new models. The comprehensive small machine table lineup of 20 options for machine tables measuring 16" and under in the Y-dimension will also be featured.
Kurt DoveLock dovetail 5-axis vise line is expanded with a new reverse model and smaller footprint model. DoveLock provides up to 4,000 lbs. of clamping force, holding parts without distorting the workpiece while providing access to five sides of the workpiece. DoveLock dovetail holding feature requires only 1/8" of material height to hold the part. The dovetail feature helps simplify workpiece material preparation so that no machined jaws are necessary. All DoveLock 5-axis vises are manufactured from 4140 steel.
Kurt's exhibit also will include an expanded small machine table workholding lineup ranging in size from a 5" length up to a 15.5" length vise. Models are available in single station, double station and self centering styles to accomplish an ideal holding solution for a variety of part configurations and density. Manual and hydraulic options are available to suit the requirements from short to high volume production.
Clamping force for this Kurt workholding line ranges from 1,800 lbs. of force up to 12,600 lbs. and is dependent on the model selected and whether manual or hydraulic actuation is utilized. Additional features encompass the line including machinable jaws, hard jaws and features such as the AngLock and Pull-type features - all designed to reduce jaw lift and create a rigid and immobile workpiece solution.
