BIG
Kaiser to Introduce New Mega Chuck Series;
Balance, Precision Unsurpassed During High-Speed Operations |
| |
| ELK GROVE VILLAGE, IL—A
newly-designed series of chucks offering unmatched balance
and precision during high speed drilling and milling operations
up to 40,000 RPM will be introduced by BIG Kaiser Precision
Tooling Inc. at IMTS 2004, September 8-15, in Chicago’s
McCormick Place, Booth E-2005. |
| |
| Each
chuck comes standard with the BIG-PLUS dual contact spindle
system to assure the highest rigidity and accuracy possible
in high speed and high metal removal machining operations.
BIG-PLUS allows interchangeability with existing tool holders
and machine spindles. |
| |
| The
exclusive notch free design of the Mega Chuck Nut eliminates
tool vibration at high speeds and reduces whistling noise and
splattering coolant. The design also strengthens the nut itself.
The Mega Wrench provides firm tightening through a one way
clutch system with roller bearings, easily tightening or loosening
the nut. |
| |
| “High
speed and high performance machining operations demand total
tool balance and concentricity at the cutting edge. The Mega
Chuck Series offers the industry’s highest levels of
rigidity, gripping force, and run-out accuracy to help users
achieve better surface finishes, superior precision, and extend
tool life,” explained Jack Burley, BIG Kaiser Vice President,
Engineering. |
| |
| Four
different chucks with a clamping range of .010" to 1.500" allow
improved machining techniques for higher finish and accuracies
with increased production: |
| |
| Mega Micro Chuck – features
a micro outer diameter as small as .394”, ideal for
high speed applications in tight areas with small diameter
cutting tools. It has three collet series that cover a
range of 0.018" to 0.236", with collets available
in steps of .004” to guarantee run-out accuracy of
.00004” at collet face. |
| |
| Mega New Baby
Chuck – six different size collet series provide
ultra precision for high speed machining with carbide drills,
taps, reamers and endmills. Offered in all popular styles
of shank types such as CAT, BT, or HSK and can hold a range
of cutting tools from 0.010 to 0.787". |
| |
| Mega E Chuck – collet
chuck designed exclusively for endmilling up to 1/2" provides
powerful gripping force by means of a shallow taper collet
with minimal range to achieve concentricity. Coolant can
be fed to the periphery of cutting tools through slits
in the collet. The chuck’s body design enhances rigidity,
preventing chatter and deflection. |
| |
| Mega Double
Power Chuck – features a dual or “double” contacting
nut with simultaneous contact between the tool holder body
and nut to ensure superior rigidity with a work range of
0.625" to 1.500". Expanded contact diameter of
the nut eliminates open spaces to provide the highest rigidity,
as if one solid piece. |
|
| |
|
Mega Chucks are
micro-mirror finished on all surfaces to assure perfect concentricity
for high speed machining. Drive keyways are machined after
heat treatment. Chucks are then balanced with a high-precision
dynamic balancing machine.
