Key features of the ZSG4 range include a totally enclosed clamping system, meaning the vice's operation is protected from swarf ingress. The maximum gripping force is 35 kN and components up to 303 mm in length can be held, while precision matched slides result in repeatability of ±0.01 mm. Other innovations include the use of a ballscrew spindle that totally eliminates backlash, says WNT.
The versatility of the ZSG4 vice system is highlighted by a choice of jaws that includes: reversible jaws; pendulum plate jaws; combi jaws; aluminium jaws; 5-axis jaws; smooth carbide coated jaws; and stepped jaws.
