New Chucks and Collets Products

Diaphragm Chuck grips compressor scrolls.

7 in. Diaphragm Chuck is designed to grip cast-iron compressor scrolls on drive shaft hub for finish milling of scroll walls and face. 8 air-open/spring-clamp chucks are mounted on tombstone. Chucks have pulldown action to pull scroll onto fixed stop for zero Z-axis location. Jaws change out for 2 sizes of scrolls and repeat to 1/10,000 TIR. SAE or metric sizes range from 3 in.(76 mm) to 12...

Collet Closer is suitable for miniature workholding.

Tiny Mini-Collet Closer is 1-1/2 in. square with 3/4 in. dia capacity, can be mounted on vertical machining centers or CNC drilling and tapping machines, and is suitable for machining miniature parts such as medical devices, fuel injectors and computer components. It can be used as single unit or in multiple configurations either horizontally or vertically, and can be activated by air or...

Quick-Change Chuck puts parts on pallets.

Quick-Change Pallet Chuck for CNC milling allows users to mount machine stock, workholders, or dedicated fixtures to pallets in order to create repeatable home position for CNC work stations. Preparing stock on bench and milling one job while another is being prepared saves machine time. Pallets lock with 23,000 lbs of mechanical holding force and stay locked until standard air pressure is...

Collet Chucks bolt directly to lathe spindle nose.

Direct mount collet chucks can be used on any spindle that uses draw tube type actuator. With pull back design, compact units are suited for clamping small diameter workpieces, increasing tool clearances and reducing strain on spindle bearings. Rigid clamping allows increased machine speeds for bar feed applications. Chucks are available in types 5C, 16C, 3J, 20C and 25C. Threaded nose is...

A Nutraceutical Pathway to Innovative Hemp and CBD Products

We released this white paper to help CEOs and CSOs understand the key elements of nutraceutical development, going from Concept to Consumer. In our experience at least some of the steps in the process are not well understood, resulting in important scientific and regulatory gaps in the Concept to Consumer process.

Power Chucks keep jaw force at maximum speeds.

Royal LS-HS Series three-jaw, wedge-type chucks maintain 80% of jaw force at high speeds, permitting turning of large dia work parts or frail work parts requiring light clamping force to prevent distortion. Chucks are made from high-alloy steel. They are available in 24-36 in. sizes with all standard master jaw configurations. Chip and coolant protection reduces lubrication frequency, increases...

Magnets are suited to heavy-duty shop floors.

Uses for STRONG-MAG(TM) industrial magnets include jigging, clamping, positioning, work holding, lifting, moving, and gripping. Available shapes include button, cylindrical, flat, round, rectangular, and horseshoe. Magnetic materials range from ceramic and alnico to neodymium iron boron and samarium cobalt. STRONG-MAG(TM) magnetic products also include permanent magnet chucks and magnetic...

Safety Chucks are available in tilting and sliding models.

Safety Chucks offer replaceable jaws and can be supplied with square, diamond, triangle, or circular engagements. Sliding models utilize push-button release mechanism to ensure worker safety and shaft stability. Both sliding and tilting models can be flange-mounted, fixed or with sidelay adjustment.

Chucks have through-coolant capability.

Featuring thick wall design, Power Milling Chucks resist deflection even under heavy side loading. Concentricity is within .0002 in. T.I.R. at the nose. Seals are used to resist contamination of internal components. Chucks are available in BT 40 and CAT 40 and 50 shank sizes in 3/4 in. and 1 1/4 in. chuck capacities. Accessories include 2 straight slotted bushing/collet designs to handle shank...

Collet Closer clamps down on machining centers.

High-pressure hydraulic Tri-Grip 5C collet is suitable for workholding applications in vertical and horizontal machining centers. It operates 3 collets simultaneously, with each on 2-1/2 in. center. Collet and part do not move, maintaining fixed height from part to part. It automatically locates collet locking screw access on top of collet block, which allows infinite collet or part orientation....

Gripping Rails with Clamps improve holding force.

Pitbull Gripping Rails, with built-in clamps, maintain parallelism on non-ferrous or ferrous parts. Their asymmetric design allows for precision tolerances. Pitbull Gripping Rails also improve holding force of magnetic chucks when used to hold difficult or irregularly shaped ferrous workpieces. They allow users to add extra steel blocking to increase resistance against sliding, and can hold large...

Basalt America Announces Stronger, Lighter, and Corrosion-Free FRP's (Fiber Reinforced Polymers)

Fiber Reinforced Polymers (FRP), represents a truly groundbreaking advancement in structural reinforcement. Lightweight, strong, and green, they are changing the way the construction industry thinks about rebar. Unlike steel, FRPs don't rust and are far stronger than standard rebar. To learn why Fiber Reinforced Polymers are poised to change the way the world builds, see our video.
