Power chucks range with Wedge Hook, Lubrication System and Centrifugal Force Compensation

The new range of Power Chucks QLC/QLK, QLC/QLK-KS, QLC-LS and QLC-AG marks a considerable advance in chucking technology. (A feat so often achieved by FORKARDT that it is becoming a tradition!) The QLC familiy of chucks is an enviable combination of proven mechanisms, innovative design, highest quality materials and advanced manufacturing techniques. Needless to say, all developed and produced in accordance with the requirements of ISO 9001 - 2000.

QLC/QLK Power Chucks utilize the wedge hook system with a large through hole bore. Centrifugal force compensation is also provided together with an integrated lubricant reserve. QLC/QLK Power Chucks are universal chucks which can be used in practically all turning applications.

Technical Features:

Advantages at a glance:

  • Best possible clamping forces obtained through multiple jaw guides
  • Backlash free wedge hook mechanism for maximum clamping forces and highest repeatability
  • Innovative (patented) base jaw profile providing exceptionally long support for greater stability and precision during internal and external clamping
  • Nitrided chuck body for long service life
  • Minimal loss of lubricating grease through gaps and undercuts, because jaw guides are precision ground with a circular profile – thus, reducing maintenance and increasing consistency
  • Integrated lubricant reservoir with improved circulation
  • QLC variants have centrifugal force compensation for high gripping forces at high speeds, accuracy, reliability and safety
  • Carefully selected matching materials - all loaded, sliding surfaces are hardened and ground
  • Simplified construction of the guiding piston in the chuck, with no back protrusion of the piston connection when on clamping
  • Axial Stroke limitation is integrated into the design of the chucks thus ensuring any over stroke of the cylinder is not problematic
  • Base Jaw serrations according to European and US specifications available as standard
  • Optional quick change jaws
  • 30 - 40% lighter that comparable chucks
  • Reduced machine wear - Long maintenance intervals, high productivity
  • KING SIZE variants have 40% greater through hole than comparable chucks
  • LONG STROKE chucks are capable of clamping workpieces with great variances in diameter due to 95% more clamping stroke
  • Sensitive, free of gripping deformation of thin walled parts
  • Long, reliable and accurate service life - 5 years warranty (please complete the guarantee card and return to FORKARDT)
