Floating Chucks: Technology
Design Advantages
- Sliding full surface area support, horizontal plane sliding surface areas transmit the axial feed forces with minimum surface pressure
- Reliable performance even at state-of-the-art feed rates and correspondingly high forces
- Easy parallel and angular float adjustment of the tool mounting socket with a lasting high level of accuracy
- Parallel and angular compensation assured by predetermined tolerance limits incorporated into the design
- A major design advantage is the full sliding surface support area compared with conventional ball point contact area supports
- Fully enclosed central coolant supply (water, oil, air) to the workpiece through a flexible, fluid-tight component connected with the holder shank and the tool mounting socket
- Slender design, small head diameters and correspondingly close spacing in multispindle operations
Economic Advantages:
- Lower costs
- Long operating life, even at extremely high feed forces, trouble-free performance
- Consistent series production results
- Fewer rejects, less reworking
- Ideal for high speeds
- No wear parts - no need for expensive stocks of spares
