DAWN manufacture and market the most comprehensive range of vices, our 90 years experience in manufacturing vices have gone into design, accuracy, and gripping capacity. DAWN vices are unequalled for quality and value.
Dawn Super Precision Vices are manufactured to exacting tolerances and are suitable for all high tolerance machining and milling operations. The vice body is made from close grained high tensile cast iron, jaws made from fully hardened and ground steel, bearing surface is accurately ground flat within 30 microns (0.0012’). The 360 degree swivel base, where applicable, is accurately graduated in one degree increments.
These vices have a ground vice bed for smooth and consistent jaw movement. With jaws which incorporate V grooves, these vices are highly recommended for general purpose drilling, reaming and tapping operations.
One of the most popular vices used in workshops, shop floors etc. Used in milling operations, this vice also has application in jig boring, grinding, shaping etc. The 360 degree swivel base allows the vice to be set at any angle along the vertical axis. The vice is indexed horizontally all through 360 degree. Vice jaws are precision ground which allows the work piece to be held dead square without use of any packing.
This not only improves the efficiency and life of the jaws, but also helps reduce strain on the vice body. Parallelism of the jaws is within 30 microns (0.0012”)
The Angular Machine Vice is ideal for application wherein the work piece requires machining at an angle, which can be easily set through adjustment of the angular slide. The vice is indexed all through vertical 90 degree. Additionally the fully graduated swivel base allows for full horizontal indexing. The angular slide can be easily set to any desired angle 180 degree on either side using the “Hold Down” clamps. Raduations on either side of the angular slide add to the convenience for the user.
This vice provides for 3 axis setting of the work piece required in special milling, drilling, grinding, shaping and jig boring applications.
Vice has 2 angular slides which allow the work piece to be set to any desired angle. Vice has 45 degree tilting range on both sides and 900 vertical indexing.
The 360 degree swivel base further allows rotation along the vertical axis.
Use of high tensile grade 10.8 fasteners along with specially designed “hold down” clamp which provide full surface contact, ensures rigid positioning of the vice.
The most versatile of the machine vices, with all degrees of freedom, allows the work piece to set at any desired compound angle. The low height of the vice makes it an ideal clamping tool for even the most complicated grinding job.
The vice has a fixed horizontal axis which allows the work piece to be rotated at any angle along it. The swivel base allows the rotation of the work piece along the vertical axis and the third angular slide allows any setting in the 3D plane.
This vice finds application in mass production jobs where the work piece is required to be repeatedly placed at the centre for a fixed machine setting. The spindle has opposite threads for quick and accurate centring. Rotation of the handle automatically adjusts the work piece at it’s centre. The 360 degree swivel base allows the vice to be set at any angle along the vertical axis.
High precision one piece vice mounted on to precision hinged bottom plate. Fully hardened and ground jaws can be opened or closed without unbolting from the work table surface. Minute angle step built into the vice allows very small angles to be set with ease using standard gauge blocks. The vice has a range of 0-60 degree.
These solid one-piece vices with all steel construction are fully hardened and ground. Precision grinding on all surfaces makes them an ideal clamping tool for die making and other tool room applications.
Features:
A: Screw Type - The spindle has precisely cut square threads for positive clamping. Gun metal bushes reduce wear and tear.
B: Screwless Type - Vice has V grooved jaws for holding round jobs. Rapid positioning notches allow for quick and efficient setting.
