KONTEC KSG Traditional Vise
Modular, Power-Amplified Clamping with Precise Control
The SCHUNK KONTEC KSG is a power-amplified, single-acting machine vise that is known for its mechanical force-multiplication and quick lever-operated clamping. Modular in design, this vise allows continuously adjustable clamping force, making it suitable for a full range of workpieces that operators can clamp in seconds with consistent, repeatable force.
| Key Features | |
| Mechanical Force Amplification | Uses an internal power transmission box to multiply clamping force without additional effort, highly adjustable gripping forces that clamp with just a few turns of the lever |
| Quick Lever Clamping | Instead of a traditional long handle or screw, a quick-action lever securely clamps the workpiece in one swift motion |
| Encapsulated & Low Maintenance | The force transmission mechanism is fully enclosed in a sealed box, requiring no maintenance over its life and the spindle drive is adjusted by hand for rapid jaw positioning without tools |
| Flexible Clamping & No Base Deflection | KSG vises clamp by pulling the moving jaw down and in, which prevents the base from flexing and ensures maximum machining precision |
| Integrated VERO-S Interface | Equipped with a direct SCHUNK VERO-S zero-point interface, allowing instant mounting on any VERO-S quick-change pallet |
