OD/ID Collet Chucks


OD/ID Collet Chucks
• Gripping force centralized over entire O.D. of part ensuring no part distortion
• Greatest form of concentricity and repeatability outside of diaphragm chucks
• Higher degree of simplicity than standard (3) jaw chucks
• Simple part change over
• No centrifugal force lost, able to run at >6,000 rpm’s

TIR
• Guaranteed within your balance or machining specs or better
• Repeatability of less than .0002"
• Allows for chuck to be balanced out on machine
• Integrated Air Cylinders

OD/ID Collet Chuck Features

Single Taper Collets
• Ideal for chucking on O.D. or I.D. of part
• Allows for chucking on narrower chucking lands
• Does not accommodate tapered chucking surfaces
• Split from one end or split from both ends
• Part does not have to be inside entire chucking land
• Can be threaded on one end to attach to piston or draw bar

Double Taper Collets
• Ideal for chucking O.D. or I.D. of part in two places
• Allows for chucking on tapered parts or where the bore is not perfectly straight
• Split from each end allowing for opposite sides to be independent of each other
• Extra rigidity by chucking on two locations of a part

Features
• Holds internal diameters of part when outside diameter cannot be held
• Used to hold outer diameters as needed
• Part stops designed for repeatability: Air Sensing available to determine if part is loaded correctly
• Repeatability < .0002
