Vice
The vice is the unit that clamps the workpiece in place during cutting; it consists
of a vice support, commonly known as a lead nut, fixed to the work table, and a
lead screw with a slideway on which the mobile jaw is mounted. The vice is
operated manually by a handwheel, or by a pneumatic cylinder in the MA version
(optional).
Control Panel
The control panel has a protection rating of IP 54 and contains the electrical
equipment. Access is gained by removing the screws fastening a safety panel,
while the operator’s safety is guaranteed by a key---operated safety switch,
designed to prevent any intentional interference with the unit. In order to remove
the panel from its mounting, the main switch has to be shifted to 0 (OFF), which
automatically cuts off the electrical supply.
