Workholding You Can Trust
Backed by more than 75 years of workholding solutions
Made in the USA
Our smart manufacturing solution for CNC turning machines provides fast, easy confirmation of part clamping position as well as measuring feedback to eliminate necessary adjustments after workholding collet changeovers.
Benefits
American made and in-stock for fast delivery
Simple design is affordable, cost-efficient and easy to install
Quickly confirms workpiece clamping status and position
Determines whether part parameters are in range prior to machining
Prevents scrap and tool damage if workpiece clamping is not confirmed
Decreases downtime and gives operators full control at the machine
Features
Contactless measurement of clamping position and confirmation with accuracy to thousandths of an inch
Eliminates the need for proximity switches
Automatically sends digital workpiece/machine feedback including time stamp, stroke position and real-time workpiece dimension data during machining to machine tool CNCs
Workholding You Can Trust
Quickly mounts to virtually any CNC workholding devices and easily retrofits to older machinery
Backed by more than 75 years of workholding solutions
Features
3-point adjusting feature in the chuck body permits indicating in the zero. Increase soft jaw life by using adjustment feature. Reduce or eliminate re-boring of soft jaws.
High RPM, up to 6,000 using standard top jaws without loss of gripping force, due to internally counter-balanced design.
Quick change master jaws, 2 sets supplied with each chuck permits offline pre-assembly of top tooling for next job reducing traditional setup time by 95%.
SAFE visual indicator shows when master jaws are in the unlocked mode.
Utilize existing top tooling by selecting style of master jaws from 1.5 x 60, 1/16 x 90, Am. Std. Acme, Am. Std tongue & groove and square serrations or substitute mono block jaws. Sets can be mixed styles.
Utilize the machine’s existing actuating cylinder-does not require long stroke cylinder.
Benefits
Lowest centrifugate force loss, Maintains high clamping forces
Sizes 6”|8”|10”|12”|15”|18”|20”|24” diameters
±.0005” repeatability between jaws changes
Preset jaws outside the machine
Two sets of base jaws included
Large through hole capacity
Use existing serrated jaws
Service with installation
Quick change of jaws

Made in USA
(T) Draw tube thread blank
Dimensions listed are with 1.5 x 60° Japanese type master jaws. Some dimensions will vary using other master jaw types such as Acme, 1/16” x 90° or Am. Std. tongue & groove
Chuck is at mid strok ewith master jaws flush with the body O.D.
UNC mounting bolts availabl upon request.
Mono Block Jaws
Mono block jaws are extremely accurate solid one piece design ideal for dedicated jobs, and will allow you to work closer to the chuck face, due to no jaw bolt obstructions. For longer service Mono Block Jaws are made from a nitride hardening material to allow hardening after forming without major distortion.
Jaw Presetting Fixture Benefits
One fixture accommodates all chuck sizes.
Faster preset jaws outside the machine while the machine is running.
Safer automatically adjusted to mid-jaws stroke for optimum clamping pressure.
Made in the USA.
