Custom Engineered Riser Base

Shown here, is a custom GRIP-TEC riser base & chuck backplate, along with the 5th Axis ‘RockLock’ riser and pullstud for true quick change and total flexibility.
With the RockLock bases you not only get 0.008 Microns repeatability or better from your top tooling, you can also adapt existing fixtures, 3 jaw chucks, ER collet fixtures or utilise the pullstuds by inserting them directly into your raw material.

The precision disc shown in the image is one of our customers who are a leading supplier of lighting fittings in the Super-Yacht industry and Marine leisure market.

Whilst considering the purchase of a new Mazak VRX i300AWC 5 axis machining centre with 32 pallets, we looked at various options for work holding, and one option was purchasing “5th Axis” self centering vices through Grip-Tec. After viewing these vices in situ at another company, and then getting a sample sent for evaluation from Jason Short of Grip-Tec, we felt that these vices were the best marriage between the machine tool and work holding, that would best suit our production. We then proceeded to purchase 32 off V562X (5th Axis) vices supplied by Grip-Tec, which completed our machine installation. We felt that these vices gave us the security and flexibility that we require from our work holding and this also complemented our new Mazak VRX i300AWC very well. The communication with Jason and Kate from Grip-Tec was excellent and continues to be so. All promised delivery dates and quality has not only met but superseded expectations.
