The systems afford a high level of production flexibility by being able to easily and quickly apply both fixed and movable jaws, to suit varying workpiece size and throughput demands.
The Iram 2000 Module Vice plate is available in lengths from 284 mm to 809 mm, 180mm wide and 63mm high.
End jaws are 79mm long by 180mm wide; moveable jaws are 180mm wide and 69 to 77mm long, to suit the application.
Jaw height is 49mm and the system has a 20,000N maximum clamping pressure at a torque setting of 25Nm.
Similar jaw and clamping pressure specifications are provided with the Iram 2000 Module Cube, where the cube plate measures 206mm long by 206mm wide by 240mm to 985mm high.
The jaw arrangement for both systems includes body, lateral stop, centre stop and three different sizes of vertical stops, while accessories for both embrace customised vertical stops, extendable centre stops and form clamps.
