Workholding Solutions
Custom Vise Jaws
Precision-machined soft jaws and custom vise jaws engineered to your part geometry — faster setups, tighter tolerances, fewer scrapped parts.
Built Around Your Part
Off-the-shelf jaws are a compromise. When your part has complex contours, thin walls, or critical datum surfaces, generic workholding introduces error before the first cut is made.
DarFort machines custom vise jaws to match your exact part geometry. Whether you need a single set for a prototype run or a production-ready set for high-volume work, we hold the tolerances that matter.
What We Make
Soft Jaw Sets
Matched pairs machined to cradle your part geometry. Aluminum or Delrin for delicate surfaces, steel for heavy cuts.
Step Jaws
Multi-step profiles for parts requiring multiple datum heights or sequential operations without re-fixturing.
Contoured Jaws
Radius, compound angle, and freeform profiles. We work from your CAD model or a sample part.
Prototype & Short Run
Single sets turned around in 48–72 hours. Ideal for development programs where setups change frequently.
FDM Printed Jaws (PA-CF)
3D printed in carbon fiber-reinforced nylon (PA-CF) for lightweight, rigid workholding. Ideal for complex geometries, rapid iteration, and low-force clamping applications.
Available Materials
| Material | Best For |
|---|---|
| 6061-T6 Aluminum | Lightweight, easy to re-machine, ideal for most soft jaw applications |
| 7075-T6 Aluminum | Higher strength for aggressive cuts or heavy clamping loads |
| Delrin (Acetal) | Non-marring surface for finished or polished parts |
| 4140 Steel | Production-grade durability for high-cycle workholding |
| Stainless 303/304 | Corrosion-resistant sets for cleanroom or wet environments |
| PA-CF (Carbon Fiber Nylon) | FDM printed — lightweight, rigid, and ideal for complex geometries or rapid iteration |
How It Works
01
Submit Your Part File
Send us your CAD model (STEP, IGES, SolidWorks) or a dimensioned drawing. A sample part works too.
02
Engineering Review
We review your geometry, clamping requirements, and material. We'll flag any workholding concerns before cutting starts.
03
Quote Within 24 Hours
You receive a detailed quote with material options, lead time, and per-set pricing for single or production quantities.
04
Machined & Shipped Fast
Next-day shipping available. Prototype sets ship in 48–72 hours. All jaws are inspected before shipping.
