MCP125Z 5-Axis Concentric Manual Vises
Mechanical OperationThe MC125PZ vise is ideal for large workpieces. Like all of the 5-Axis vises, this vise has optimal features to allow unrestricted tool access for multiple-side machining. This Z-series concentric vise incorporates the precision self-centering mechanism, with two moving jaws that provide clamping at the exact center of the rotary table. Finest-quality construction with a special cast steel base for excellent rigidity, dimensional stability, and durability. All sides are hardened and ground, providing a basis for maximum precision. Made in Germany.
The MCP series is a further refinement of the 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.
Application Information
Unique design allows clear tool access to five-out-of-six workpiece sides.
Mounting on a Quintus 3 Riser
Before using the vise, install the three Quintus 3 pull-down bolts in the vise's M10 counterbored bottom locating holes. To locate and clamp the vise, the Quintus 3 riser utilizes these three pull-down bolts – #1 with zero-point centering, #2 with single-axis centering, and #3 without centering. First, turn Quintus mechanism #1, then turn Quintus mechanism #2, then turn Quintus mechanism #3. Each exerts 4500 lbs of force on its pull-down bolt.
Mounting on a Subplate
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 eight M12 x 35mm socket-head cap screws inserted through the plate from below.
