The system is capable of holding oddly shaped workpieces in a range of sizes, as well as holding multiple parts in a single cycle. The hardened vise jaw system has penetrating teeth to prevent lateral and horizontal movement. According to the company, the grips will hold flame-cut workpieces, castings and workpieces with negative drift.
