EDM Vises

Every vise in the range shares one principle: clamp downward at 45°, hold the workpiece against the table, and never let the wire touch the fixture.

Adjustable Vises

X / Y / Z adjustment — VIS680 to VIS686

VIS680 adjustable EDM vise

VIS680 Adjustable Vise VIS680.100 / VIS680.160

The most important idea in the whole range. The vise attaches to the work stand once and the workpiece is then positioned in seconds — horizontally, vertically or in parallel — without removing the standard fastening accessories. Work speed increases because a new part no longer means rebuilding the setup.

  • Three adjustment modes — horizontal (X), vertical (Y) and parallel (Z).
  • Attach to the work stand once; reposition without dismantling.
  • 0.2 mm leeway is provided to avoid interference with the wire guide after adjustment.
  • Remove the substrate stopper if it obstructs the cut.
  • Weight 5.4 / 7.8 kg; maximum load 10 kg.
