Roemheld unveils MC125 5-axis vice

Roemheld has launched a 5-axis vice that completes its range of 5-axis clamping components. The mechanically operated MC125 series combines a compact design with large clamping strokes.

The MC125 benefits not only from a hardened steel base, but from the adjusting spindle being arranged in the upper part of the housing. This ensures that the rigidity of the system is maintained, says Roemheld.

The compact design is intended to allow good accessibility of tools to the workpiece. According to Roemheld, collision-free toolpaths and 5-sided workpiece machining can be achieved with short, standard tools. Three versions of the MC125 are available.

The MC125 offers a jaw width of 125 mm, a clamping force of 35 kN and a clamping stroke of 100 mm. In addition, the vice is compatible with zero-point mounting systems, as there are three location threads for draw-in nipples on the bottom of the housing.
