EROWA VISE POWER CLAMP- VPC

The EROWA Vise Power Clamp (VPC) Tooling System is designed to offer precision, flexibility, and process reliability for the clamping of vises, fixtures, and workpieces. This system is highly adaptable. It is accommodating pitch dimensions of 52 mm and 96 mm, which enables it to be seamlessly integrated into various machining environments. The VPC system stands out for its ability to maximize manufacturing efficiency through both manual and automated operations, making it ideal for high-precision industrial applications.

Core Components and Flexibility

At the heart of the VPC system are two chuck sizes: the VPC 52 and the VPC 96. These chucks, along with their corresponding clamping spigots, provide robust clamping capabilities. At the same time it allows for the direct clamping of fixtures and workpieces. This dual size flexibility ensures that a wide variety of vises and workpieces can be securely held in place. The VPC system is also highly compatible with other EROWA systems, such as the UPC and MTS systems, further enhancing its versatility in manufacturing setups.

Seamless Integration and Automation

The EROWA VPC Tooling System is built for easy integration into automated workflows. The system’s design allows it to be controlled either manually or automatically, depending on the specific needs of the manufacturing process. Thanks to its re-tensioning function, precision is maintained with every operation, ensuring that even the most demanding tasks can be carried out reliably. This feature is particularly advantageous for businesses looking to automate their production lines without compromising on quality or precision.

The VPC tooling system also includes automated cleaning and monitoring functions, which further contribute to its process reliability. Whether it’s automated or manual operation, the system ensures that the clamping process is smooth, efficient, and error-free.

Key Technical Features

The VPC Tooling System offers impressive technical specifications, such as repeatability of less than 0.003 mm, indexing at 4 x 90°, and clamping power up to 18,000 N with reclamping. The system operates using compressed air and provides multiple air ducts. They are used for opening, reclamping, and cleaning, ensuring that the chucks remain functional and clean during continuous operations. This makes the VPC system not only precise but also incredibly durable for long-term use.

Automation-Ready and Scalable

One of the standout features of the EROWA VPC Tooling System is its adaptability to automation. EROWA offers various automation options depending on specific production needs. Above all the system’s compact design makes it ideal for integration into any production line. The VPC system also allows for the automation of pallets, fixtures, workpieces, and vises in a mixed operation setup. Consequently maximizing productivity and minimizing downtime.
