A woodworking vise includes a profiled vise body (1), a first jaw (2) and a second jaw (2′). The first jaw (2) and the second jaw (2′) are disposed at both ends of the vise body along its longitudinal axis. The woodworking vise further includes at least one movable jaw (3). The at least one movable jaw (3) is slidably connected to a top surface of the profiled vise body. Between the movable jaw (3) and the top surface of the profiled vise body (1), a locking block (36) is disposed, and a bottom surface of the locking block (36) is slidably connected to the top surface of the profiled vise body (1). The movable jaw (3) includes a force applying means (34) and a camshaft (35). The camshaft (35) has at least one cam, and the force applying means (34) is connected to the camshaft (35). Moreover, the force applying means (34) is able to rotate about a center axis of the camshaft (35) to drive the camshaft (35) to rotate therewith to cause the cam of the camshaft (35) to press against the locking block (36) and, by means of the locking block (36), press and secure the movable jaw (3) against and to the top surface of the vise body (1). Wherein, the center axis of the camshaft (35) is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the profiled vise body (1). This woodworking vise can solve the problem of an angle of clamping deviation.

An integrated woodworking system connectable to an external source of electricity includes an enclosure, a management and control center, and plural tool holders. The management and control center is provided in the enclosure; is connectable to the source of electricity and a source of gas pressure; can control the consumption of input electricity, the flow rate of input gas, and a pneumatic tool such as a dust collector; and has at least one electricity output cable and at least one gas output hose. The tool holders are provided in the enclosure and are each connected to the electricity output cable or the gas output hose. The system incorporates the woodworking tools one needs into the enclosure and can be sold as a whole to save the trouble of purchasing and installing the tools individually. By managing power consumption in general, the system prevents overloading.

A method for processing plate-shaped workpieces, in particular made of wood or wood substitute materials, having the following steps: providing a large-format plate, in particular made of wood or wood substitute materials, and supplying the large-format plate to an isolation station; isolating plate-shaped workpieces by dividing the provided large-format plate in the isolation station, in that cuts are made, here, in the large-format plate by at least one isolation unit; supplying the workpieces, thus isolated, to at least one downstream machining station, in order to finish the plate-shaped workpiece. At least a portion of each isolated workpiece receives, from the isolation unit, an alignment portion for engagement of gripping elements and/or for making reference drilled holes. The workpiece provided with the alignment portion is received by means of a gripping element, an engagement element or an acquisition element engaging on the alignment portion, following the separation of said workpiece.
