Fast changeover
01 August 2014
There's no more taking off 3 jaw chucks with the B-Top3 modular clamping system.

A very fast changeover is said to be achieved from outside to inside clamping with collet or mandrel in a couple of minutes.
The chuck has guidance jaws with high repeatability which are especially suitable for small bore sizes and give maximum repeatability. Repeated jaw skimming is therefore not necessary in most cases, saving both time and effort and increasing efficiency.
The new lubrication system also ensures improved clamping force, longer lubrication intervals and improved overall operation of the wedge bar principle. Due to the patented Centrotex positioning system there is no need to adjust for radical accuracy, the collet chuck and mandrel can be loaded within 0.005mm
Everything is safety protected; changeovers can only be completed with all parts in the correct position.
