Precision Under Pressure: Why the HOMGE Power Vise is the Industry Standard for CNC Machining

In the world of high-stakes manufacturing—aerospace, automotive, and shipbuilding—the difference between a perfect part and a costly scrap piece often comes down to a few microns. In modern CNC machining, your machine is only as good as your workholding. If the clamping isn’t stable, accuracy and efficiency vanish.

What is a "Power Vise"?

A Power Vise is more than just a clamping tool; it is a force-multiplication system. By using an internal mechanical structure, it amplifies manual input into massive, consistent clamping force. Unlike traditional mechanical vises that rely on "operator feel," the Power Vise features a constant pressure ring. This allows machinists to pre-set exact force levels, ensuring every workpiece is held with identical pressure.

4 Key Advantages Over Traditional Vises

  • Consistent Repeatability: The adjustable pressure ring ensures that whether it’s the first part or the thousandth, the clamping force remains identical.

  • Zero Workpiece Lift: Through the Angle-Lock mechanism, the vise applies downward pressure as it clamps, pulling the workpiece into an accurate, seated position against the bed.

  • Fixed Profile Height: The vise body height is precision-ground and constant, making it ideal for multi-vise setups on the same table.

  • Long-Term Durability: Built for high-rigidity and heavy-duty cycles, these vises maintain parallelism over years of 24/7 operation.

Solutions Tailored to Your Shop Floor

1. The HPAQ & HPAC Series: The All-Rounders

Built on high-rigidity bodies with precision-ground rails, these are the workhorses for vertical (VMC) and horizontal (HMC) machining centers. They are designed for those who refuse to compromise on parallelism.

2. The F-Series: Ergonomics Meets Efficiency

Operator fatigue is a hidden cost in many shops. The HPAQ-F and HPAC-F series feature a reversed internal structure. By moving the workpiece closer to the operator, it eliminates the need for constant bending, making the loading process faster and safer.

3. The HBV-G/ND-G Series: Automation Ready

For shops integrating CNCs with robotic arms or high-volume pallet changers, the HBV-G and ND-G Pneumatic series provide instant, automated clamping that integrates seamlessly into your logic controllers.
