Logansport Matsumoto at IMTS 2004 (Booth E-2055): Eight Inch Hydraulic Power Chuck with Larger thru Hole Offers High Speed (7000 RPM) Needed for Hard Turning Applications


Logansport, IN - Displayed at IMTS 2004 - Booth E-2055, Logansport Matsumoto Company's GHA6-8-66 hydraulic power chuck operates at 7000 RPM. It permits machining at the high speeds and feeds required for cutting aluminum, and is ideal for machining steel, especially in hard turning applications.

The GHA6-8-66 is a big bore, 8-inch, three-jaw chuck with a 66 mm thru hole. This compares to a standard 52 mm thru hole for this size chuck. The 66 mm thru hole allows the user to chuck larger parts or bar feed a larger diameter bar.

Clamping repeatability is less than 10 microns. This high level of precision allows the user to clamp parts with greater accuracy. Thus, the manufacturer will be able to produce more accurate, more consistent and better quality parts when compared to equipment without this level of repeatability.
