KONTEC KSX-C2 Traditional Vise
The SCHUNK KONTEC KSX-C2 is an advanced 5-axis clamping vise that introduces several unique features for ultimate flexibility in high-precision machining. It includes an adjustable clamping center feature that re-centers the vise for different workpiece sizes. There is also an active jaw pull-down function that precisely draws the workpiece downward against the support for 6-sided machining without refixturing. The KSX-C2 is the ideal solution for intricate 5-axis jobs, mold and die work, and aerospace components where complete machining in one setup and perfect accuracy are required.
- Adjustable Clamping Center | Repositionable, movable jaw changes the center of clamping, allowing both very small and very large parts to be held exactly in the center of the vise, ensuring balanced, symmetrical clamping for optimal stability and uniform machining on all workpieces
- Large Stroke & Versatility | With a massive 130 mm basic clamping stroke, this vise covers a wide clamping range without needing additional spacers or extensions—the extendable clamping range further allows it to accommodate various workpiece lengths beyond that stroke if required
- Active Pull-Down for 6th Side | Built-in active jaw pull-down mechanism engages when locking the second jaw, firmly pressing the workpiece down onto the support step, enabling complete machining of the sixth side with high accuracy
- Tool-Free Quick Jaw Change | Jaw quick-change system lets you swap between a broad variety of system jaws within seconds and without any tools—a feature that is invaluable for high-mix production or prototyping, where setups change frequently
- Vibration Damping | Integrated elastomer damping in the vise absorbs vibration during machining, protecting both the tool and the workpiece surface finish
- Zero-Point Ready | Accepts SCHUNK VERO-S clamping pins directly so it mounts onto quick-change pallets with ease
