Equalizing Power Chuck

June 9, 2020

Ideal for CNC machining applications, the SJL 6-jaw (2+2+2) equalizing and self-centering power chuck provides the highest accuracy for thin-walled and deformation-sensitive workpieces. Unique to the SJL is the ability to be switched from a 2+2+2 lever equalizing chuck to classic 6-jaw self-centering chuck depending on application requirements.

 

Utilizing the 2+2+2 lever balance capability provides high concentricity and axial runout accuracies by ensuring that the grip force of each jaw set equalize as pairs and are in contact with the workpiece continuously. This minimizes any deformations or inaccuracies of raw materials.

 

The 6-jaw self-centering option provides a concentric clamp locking plate for all sequential six jaws allowing the chuck to hold round, machined diameters and thin-walled workpieces that require equal wall thicknesses.

 

Specifically designed with centrifugal force compensation, this feature provides constant gripping force at higher speeds and feeds, vastly reducing production time. The SJL is Proofline sealed and interior protected from contamination while providing consistent lubrication allowing for long maintenance intervals. This advanced power chuck accepts either tongue and groove or metric serrated top jaws and is available in sizes from 225 to 400 mm.
