Power Chuck 3QLC/K-AG


The new Compensating Power Chuck Series 3QLC/K-AG has been developed for workpieces which need to be machined between centers. The clamping jaws are designed to precisely follow components’ non-cylindrical clamping contours.

Therefore even raw material workpieces can be clamped and machined precisely without errors of eccentricity. The pull-back effect of the clamping jaws assures also true location of the workpiece on the center mounted within the chuck.

In order to accomodate a variety of gripping requirements of parts, interchangeable center housings are also available, i.e. fixed centers or spring actuated centers with fixed end stops. Two sets of clamping jaws cover almost the full grip-ping range. A special center housing converts the chuck into a conventional self-centering chuck for use with standard top jaws (e.g. UKB).





T
he profile-ground multi “V” jaw guides and the proven technical superiority of the QLC design round-off entirely the uniquely  excellent qualities of this universal chuck series.

Yet another FORKARDT Innovation!

Advantages:
  • Compensating chuck to clamp off-center parts with high precision
  • Pull-back action for improved part location on center
  • Easy moving compensation at high clamping forces
  • Interchangeable and finely adjustable center housings
  • Change-over for self-centering mode for general chucking work
  • Optional centrifugal force compensation for high speeds
  • Axial stroke limitation is integrated into the design of the chuck thus ensuring any over stroke of the cylinder is not problematic
  • Jaw guides are precision ground with a patented profile – ensuring minimal loss of lubricating grease through gaps and undercuts, thus reducing maintenance and increasing consistency
