A chuck
is a particular type of clamp used to hold rotating tools or
materials. ATS offers many types of perfect chucks. A collet
refers to the sleeve with a cylindrical inside and conical outside.
The collet has kerf cuts all along its length which allows expanding
and contracting.
A threaded
segment at the rear of the collet is used to pull it into a
corresponding conical socket. As the collet is pulled into the
socket, the collet will contract - riveting the contents of
the inner cylinder. Collets are generally found on Milling machines,
Lathes and precision grinders.
A three
jaw chuck is a gyratory clamp which uses three interconnected
dogs or 'jaws' to clasp on a tool or work piece. Three jaw chucks
are self-centering and are apt to grip circular cross sections.
Three jaw chucks can be found on lathes and indexing heads.
A four
jaw chuck is analogous to a three jaw chuck, but with four dogs,
each of which can be moved independently. This makes them perfect
for gripping non-circular cross sections, but hard to centre
exactly. Four jaw chucks are almost never used for tool holding.
Four jaw chucks can be found on lathes and indexing heads.
A drill
chuck is a three jaw chuck used to clutch drill bits or related
tools. The image at right shows an assembled keyless chuck at
the top. The tapering action of this chuck style is performed
by twisting the body using firm hand pressure only. The lower
images show the traditional keyed style of drill chuck with
its key.
A few high
precision chucks use ball thrust bearings to decrease friction
in the closing mechanism and maximizing drilling torque. These
chucks are sometimes referred to as "super chucks".
A true
length chuck of Atsworkholding ensures accuracy, features adjustability
and it is ideal for an application that requires part transfer.
