The Story
From Challenge to Delivered Vises
The Challenge
Classes mix skill levels and run high utilization. Vises had to be safe for young students, consistent across many stations, and priced to fit an education procurement cycle.
Our Solution
A 4″ light-duty platform with smooth-action mechanism, capacity and safety markings, uniform delivery across all 12 workshops, and program pricing with spare parts.
