KORRETTO · Machine vise series
Self-Centering Vise
Self-centering vises clamp the workpiece from both sides toward the center. They are suitable for symmetrical parts and machining operations where repeatable centerline positioning is important.
Send the workpiece size, symmetry requirement, centerline tolerance, clamping direction and machine type, and we will help check whether this self-centering vise series fits your setup.
Product Overview
The KORRETTO self-centering vise is designed for workpieces that need to remain centered during clamping. Its two-sided clamping action helps reduce secondary alignment and supports repeatable positioning for symmetrical parts.
Typical Applications
- Symmetrical workpieces
- Centerline clamping
- Milling and machining center workholding

Selection Notes
Before selecting a self-centering vise, confirm the workpiece symmetry, required centerline position, clamping range, jaw width and machine table space. This series is suitable when the workpiece must stay centered during clamping.
FAQ
What is a self-centering vise used for?
A self-centering vise is used to clamp a workpiece from both sides toward the center. It is suitable for symmetrical parts and operations where the workpiece centerline must remain repeatable.
When should I choose a self-centering vise?
Choose a self-centering vise when the part should stay centered during clamping, especially for symmetrical workpieces or machining operations that reference the centerline.
What workpieces are suitable for a self-centering vise?
It is suitable for symmetrical parts, parts that need centerline positioning and workpieces that benefit from two-sided clamping. Final suitability depends on the part shape, clamping area and cutting load.
What clamping range or centerline condition should be confirmed?
Please confirm the workpiece width range, jaw opening, reference centerline requirement and whether the machining datum depends on central positioning.
What machine table or mounting condition should be checked?
Please confirm the machine table size, available mounting space, T-slot arrangement and the intended clamping direction before selection.
Is it suitable for repeated batch machining?
Yes. A self-centering vise is often selected for repeat production when reducing secondary alignment and improving centerline repeatability are important.
What should be checked before installation?
Check the mounting surface, jaw condition, centerline alignment, fastening method and required clamping stroke before installation.
What information is needed for quotation?
Please provide the workpiece size, required clamping range, centerline requirement, machine table space, machining process and batch quantity.
