Kurt expands Dovetail 5 axis vise line

Two reversible jaw vises include the model DTR20 with a jaw openings of 1.09” – 1.65” and DTR10 model with a jaw opening of 0.52” – 0.80”. A full line of optional riser bases, adapter plates and pallet options are available with pre-configured mounting hole patterns to provide compatibility with a wide range CNC machines and pallet systems, rotary tables and tombstones.

A new BP8 adaptor plate works with the DT20 and DTR20 Dovelock™ vise models and provides a mounting platform that works with virtually all CNC machines. This adaptor can act as a receiver plate for the DoveLock™ vises and once mounted and located, provides for easy swopping of vise for different jobs without the need to relocate the setup.

Kurt DoveLock™ Dovetail vises are designed for aggressive 4 and 5 axis machining and are built from pre-hardened 4140 steel and incorporate anti-deflection, and alignment control through the moveable jaw being seated and guided inside the stationary jaw. Clamping screw is strategically positioned at the top of the clamping envelope providing additional anti-deflection control and maintains part rigidity, and minimizes deflection and clamp creep.

The two unique models with reversible jaws provide for a wider clamping range of the dovetail widths. This allows the machinist to use the optimum sized dovetail strip best suited for the part size and configuration from one setup to the next.

The new DoveLock™ Dovetail vises have a Lifetime Iron Clad Warranty and are part of a complete family of five axis workholding products from Kurt.
