Tilting and Swiveling Vice
Product Code : LSK-MMTM-10608
Tilting and Swiveling Vice (SKU LSK-MMTM-10608) is a machine vice that turns in the horizontal plane and tilts vertically, so a workpiece can be held at a compound angle on a milling, drilling or shaping machine. It is used in machining and tool-room training at ITI centres, polytechnics, engineering colleges and TVET institutes. The vice is available from Science Lab Supplies in Ambala, India, which supplies it to training institutes, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
The vice swivels through 360 degrees horizontally and 90 degrees vertically, with positive locking to withstand heavy loads. Its hardened and ground jaws carry one vertical and two horizontal V-grooves, a longitudinal slot aligns it quickly to the machine table, and a fine acme-thread screw in special steel is turned by a spring-loaded steel crank handle.

Applications and Experiments for the Tilting and Swiveling Vice
Trainees clamp a job, set the swivel and tilt scales to the drawing angle, then mill or drill angled faces, chamfers and holes. It teaches angular setting on the machine table without special fixtures, a routine task in machinist and tool-room work.
- ITI Machinist and Tool and Die Maker trades: milling angled faces and compound-angle features.
- Drilling angled holes on a drilling machine table.
- TVET machining modules: workholding and setting up to drawing angles.
