The master has a small CNC milling machine. He made the machine himself. During its operation, there was a need to install a vise on the machine to hold the workpiece. All vices on the market are not suitable for size. Then the master decided to make a vise on his own.
Tools and materials:
- Aluminum flat bar;
-Aluminum rod;
- Drill rod - Ø0,250 "(different lengths)
- Screws with a cylindrical head;
-Manual milling machine;
-Bandsaw machine;
-Drill;
-Scan;
-Drilling machine;
Cutters;
- Files;
-Tapers;
Step One: Project
First, the master, using a special program, made a vise project. The task was to make a low-profile vise with the possibility of mounting a milling machine on the table. As you can see, the vice consists of: a movable and fixed sponge, a fixed part and an additional clamp.
You can download the drawing file from the link below.
Step Two: Workpiece Processing
Cuts workpieces.
Grinds to the desired size.
Step three: movable and fixed jaws
Next, the master processes the sponges. Marks and drills holes.
Cuts the thread.
Step Four: Milling
It processes workpieces with a milling cutter.
Step Five: Fixed Part
Now you need to process the part, which will be fixed motionless to the table. It also needs to drill holes for the rods.
Step Six: Extra Clamp
Makes an extra clip.
Seventh step: guide rods
At the ends of the rods, drills holes and cuts the thread.
Step Eight: Build
