KURT VISES

CARVLOCK CLUSTER TOWER

  • Cast iron integral vise tower - highly rigid to achieve workpiece immobility and to dampen cutter induced vibration. Ideal for today's high speed spindles.
  • The most versatile high density tower system in the market.
  • Three different jaw systems available - machinable aluminum or ductile iron jaws (in three heights), and standard hard jaw plates.
  • Center clamping area is fully covered 100% of the time
  • Famous Anglock® design - minimizes movable jaw lift
  • Stationary and movable jaws repeatable to 0.001".
  • Hold multiple parts in eight clamping stations. Increase your part volume.
  • Three standard base sizes. Custom bases available.
  • Optional 4" conversion kit. (CTCU4-Kit) - 3 lbs.
  • Optional 6" conversion kit. (CTCU6-Kit) - 5 lbs.
  • Optional internal hex available.
  • Metric version available.

  • Productivity - multiple part workholding for better spindle utilization, reduced tool change time, and reduced machine travel from part to part.
  • Durability - 80,000-PSI ductile iron body and steel components provide strength, rigidity and long term accuracy while absorbing any machining vibration.
  • Versatility - the basic CarvLock vise base can be converted into other models simply by changing jaw kits. By removing the center jaw and adding the optional conversion plate it becomes a single station vise.
  • Flexibility - quick change jaws reduce set-up times. (for greater part turn-arounds).
  • Economy - jaws may be carved on all four sides.
  • Self adjusting throughout entire clamping range. Can clamp A and B loads in same set-up.
  • Accuracy - job-to-job setup changes within locating holes in vise base held to ±0.001".
  • 2" jaw travel using the CarvLock jaw kits.
  • Change a set of jaws in 1 minute.
  • Optional internal hex available.
  • Metric version available.
