Overview

MCP-series 5-axis vises have optimal features to allow unrestricted tool access for multiple-side machining. The standard fixed-jaw version shown here has one fixed jaw, and one moving jaw that clamps against it. Available in the four sizes shown below, with the following jaw widths:

40mm
60mm
100mm
125mm

The MCP series is a further refinement of our high-precision MC vise series. These new vises combine a very compact, fully enclosed design with a patented sliding-jaw segment design. Thanks to the adjusting spindle arranged in the upper part of the housing, deformation in the base during clamping is reduced to a minimum, providing high rigidity of the entire workholding system. The patented segment design ensures a high degree of precision and stability, reducing guiding clearance to nearly zero.

Mounting on Quintus 1 Riser

Due to its small size, the MC40 vise must first be mounted on a Quintus Vise Adaptor Plate (CL-130-01-QRFP), which is then mounted on the Quintus 1 riser. To locate the vise on the adaptor plate, use two Fixture Locating Pins, a round pin for zero-point centering and a diamond pin for single-axis centering. To fasten the vise, use six M6 x 30mm socket-head cap screws inserted through the plate from below. Next, install a Quintus 1 pull-down bolt in the adaptor plate’s M10 bottom center hole. To locate the adaptor plate, the Quintus 1 riser utilizes its two integral locating pins, a round pin for zero-point centering and a diamond pin for single-axis centering, which fit into the two 10mm locating holes underneath the plate. Turning the Quintus mechanism exerts 2700 lbs of force on the pull-down bolt. See Related Products below for mounting accessories.

Mounting on a Vise Adaptor Plate

Vise Adaptor Plate mounted directly on a rotary table. To locate the vise, use two Fixture Locating Pins, a round pin for zero-point centering and a diamond pin for single-axis centering. To fasten the vise, use six M6 x 30mm socket-head cap screws inserted through the plate from below. See Related Products below for mounting accessories.
