What Are The Advantages of The Power Chuck?

Posted on by

Power chuck is a mechanical device used to clamp the workpiece on machine tool, clamping characteristics of high precision, small abrasion, large clamping force and stability, good dynamic balance, especially suitable to the high speed of CNC lathe, power chuck has been integrated into the life of each one of us, for our life to bring comfort and convenience.

 

What are the advantages of the power chuck? Details are as follows:

 

  • The power chuck clamping in the use of the workpiece, and the clamping force is stable and adjustable, in addition to improve the work efficiency, but also can achieve more than one person to operate CNC machine tools, greatly reduces the cost of human resources, but also reduce fixed investment in equipment.

 

  • Chuck device traditional installation is very complicated, even are very professional needs for two or three days’ time, and now the power chuck the only needs one hour, improves greatly efficiency for the whole installation process.

 

  • The advantages of simple installation, high efficiency. Compared with the traditional chuck, it only needs a simple click switch, automatic centering can realize the workpiece, the other power chuck can make operation of the people at the same time control several equipment.

 

  • To reduce staff stress, so that they can easily go to work, thereby reducing the high strength pressure.

 

  • In the treatment of original technology, greatly prolongs the service life of chuck.

 

Power chuck is an important part of power transmission and motion in machine tool. Because the pneumatic chuck is reliable, quick action, convenient operation, so it is widely used in modern machine tool.

Lathe Chucks and Accessories – What do I need?

Posted on by

When you purchased your lathe, you might not have known just what you were going to do with it or what options were available. Now that you’re gaining some experience, you’re realizing that all of those different chucks and accessories that were available could be quite beneficial for a variety of purposes. However, sifting through the mountains of different parts, chucks, and accessories can overwhelm even the most experienced and harden lathe professional.

 

What is the Difference between Chucks and Accessories?

The chuck is the part of the machine that turns, providing you the opportunity to shape the product in the precise manner that you want. Different chucks will give you different options and opportunities for working the wood or metal (and yes, or the glass). Especially for metal working lathes, chucks can determine the threading spacing for certain projects, allowing you to create the perfect thread for the parts you’re attempting to create, such as bolts, camshafts, or other projects.

 

Accessories offer a breadth of options that can be added to your lathe or used to help enhance the experience, refine the process, or open doors to new opportunities to create even more exciting products using your lathe.

 

Different Choices for Chucks

Some lathe chucks use an integral thread for mounting it to the machine. These tend to be larger machines and are not likely to be used in a residential setting or by a hobbyist. Most other lathes use a back plate for mounting the chuck, which makes it easier to replace and try different chucks for various applications.

 

You can choose from:

  • 2 Jaw chucks
  • 3 Jaw chucks
  • 4 Jaw chucks
  • 6 Jaw chucks
  • Soft Jaw chucks
  • Independent jaw chucks
  • Combination jaw chucks
  • Drawtube actuated lathe chucks

 

The 2 through 6 jaw chucks are used with scroll type lathes and are manual actuated self-centering.

 

An independent 4 jaw chuck is not self-centering, but the individual jaws can be moved independently from one another. These chucks can be used to work on an irregular shaped part, or you can use it to set a piece off center for whatever reason that you would have in doing so.

 

Combination jaw chucks combine the self-centering action of the scroll chuck with independently moving jaws. This adds more flexibility with the ability to have the self-centering benefits. Drawtube actuated lathe chucks are powered using hydraulic or air cylinders to move the drawtube forward or backward. When the drawtube moves, it clamps or unclamps the jaws.

 

Each different type of lathe chucks can perform a wide range of tasks, opening the possibilities of incredible designs and processes. Many of the chucks mentioned here are more than the average beginner lathe worker will need or be able to get the most out of, but each one can be used in many standard lathe machines. The only drawback is that not all of these different types of lathes are available for mini or micro lathes.

What is a Scroll Chuck?

Posted on by

A self-centering chuck, also known as a scroll chuck, uses dogs (usually called jaws), interconnected via a scroll gear (scroll plate), to hold onto a tool or workpiece. Because they most often have three jaws, the term three-jaw chuck without other qualification is understood by machinists to mean a self-centering three-jaw chuck. The term universal chuck also refers to this type. These chucks are best suited to grip circular or hexagonal cross-sections when very fast, reasonably accurate (±0.005 inch [0.125 mm] TIR) centering is desired.

 

Sometimes this type of scroll chuck has 4 or 6 jaws instead of 3. More jaws grip the workpiece more securely if it is truly cylindrical, and thin-walled work will deform less. Four jaws are also useful for square bar work.

 

There are also independent-jaw (non-self-centering) chucks with three jaws.

 

There are hybrid self-centering chucks that have adjustment screws that can be used to further improve the concentricity after the workpiece has been gripped by the scroll jaws. This feature is meant to combine the speed and ease of the scroll plate’s self-centering with the run-out eliminating controllability of an independent-jaw chuck. The most commonly used name for this type is a brand name, Set-Tru. To avoid undue genericization of that brand name, suggestions for a generic name have included “exact-adjust”.

 

Three-jaw chucks are often used on lathes and indexing heads.
