Clamp Odd-Shaped Parts in Seconds — No Custom Jaws, No Hassle  

In today’s CNC manufacturing world, speed and precision are everything. 
But when a job calls for irregular, delicate, or asymmetrical parts, traditional workholding quickly shows its limits: 

• You spend time machining custom jaws for each job. 

• Parts slip or vibrate, hurting accuracy and finish. 

• Setup changes drag on, eating into your production schedule. 

That’s exactly why we created the RHS Self-Centering Flexible Vise in Stainless Steel — engineered to adapt instantly to your part’s shape and keep your workflow moving. 

The Problem with Traditional Vises 

If your shop handles high-mix, low-volume work, or complex geometries, you’ve probably faced this: 

• Custom jaw fabrication delays every new setup. 

• Inconsistent clamping causes rework and scrap. 

• Deep-cavity or delicate parts are tricky to hold without damage. 

The RHS Flexible Vise Solution 

Our full stainless-steel Self-Centering Vise was built to solve exactly these problems — especially in demanding EDM and CNC environments. 

A precision grid of up to 226 hardened steel pins (48–52 HRC) adapts to the exact contour of your workpiece, distributing clamping force evenly across the surface. 
This means secure holding without marring surfaces, even for delicate prototypes or complex castings. 

Perfect for: 

• CNC & 5-axis machining 

• EDM setups (stainless steel = corrosion resistant) 

• Lab measurement & assembly work 

• Shops handling parts other fixtures can’t grip 

Key Advantages 

Fast Setup – Clamp any shape in seconds, no custom jaws needed 
High Precision – Even pressure prevents slippage and distortion 
Durable – Stainless steel build resists EDM wear and shop abuse 

Versatile – Works on aerospace, medical, automotive, and custom prototypes 

Technical Specs 

• Clamping Stroke: up to 180 mm 

• Load Capacity: up to 250 kg 

• Locking Force: up to 30 Nm 

• Pins: up to 226 hardened steel pins (48–52 HRC) 

Strategic Considerations 

Implementing any new tooling solution requires evaluation. We recommend shops consider: 

• Volume of irregular parts: The more variation in part geometry, the higher the ROI. 

• Current setup times: If re-jawing is a regular bottleneck, this system pays for itself quickly. 

• Operator training: While the system is intuitive, a short learning curve exists—RHS offers onboarding support to ensure smooth adoption. 

Like any advanced system, routine maintenance of the pins and proper cleaning between uses will maximize performance and lifespan. 

At Rapid Holding Systems, we don’t just sell vises—we engineer solutions for shops that demand more from their tooling. The Flexible Vise System reflects our commitment to innovation, precision, and supporting machinists with tools that adapt to reality—not the other way around. 

Whether you’re dealing with castings, organic shapes, or high-mix production lines, this system gives you the flexibility and control needed to compete—without sacrificing accuracy or speed.
