Operating Instructions
Standard and StandardFLEX Series vices
STANDARD
and
StandardFLEX
series vices can be aligned on the
machine table horizontally or vertically mounted.
Accurate
positioning
and
alignment
within centesimal tolerances is made
through 16 H7 longitudinal or crossway keys.
It is also possible to align the vice through calibrated ground screws
(Not for 1-2 types)
.
POSITIONING
ALIGNMENT BETWEEN THE CROSS KEYWAY AND
THE FIXED JAW PLATE
Set the vice vertically ensuring that it is perfectly parallel to
the table
A
in both sides.
Then with an indicator check the parallelism of the
keyway and its alignment with the fixed jaw plate.
The clamping
on the machine table can be made through screws from the central groove or through side clamps.
Ideal clamping is through side
clamps
(
Art. 296
).
Two vices aligned through central cross keys or ground screws or side lateral reference points guarantee the same reference and alignment on the fixed jaw
section with accuracy within
0.02mm
.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR CORRECT WORK-PIECE CLAMPING
2-
Position the movable jaw
Art120 / 120A
loosening the 2 set
screws
Art.410
in order to allow the ground ball
Art.361
to lift
and then move the
Art.258
blocking group to the proper position
on the vice base leaving roughly 5 mm space with respect to the
workpiece to clamp. (

)
1-
Ensure that the vice is properly positioned and clamped to the
machine table and that the fixed jaw
Art.120 / 120A
is properly assembled.

Be careful that the positioning ball is not pushed in the hole used for the vice
clamping screws. It is also possible to use a proper insert
Art. 291
with spherical
recess in order to prevent bad blocking of the ball.

Hard tightening down of the vice to the machine
table by this method is
NOT recommended
as it can distort gap X and prevent the moving
jaw from sliding
