OverviewThe TK air-operated 3-jaw power chuck is a lightweight, universal solution for turning applications that require high clamping force and fine coaxial accuracy. Its integrated cylinder and optional quick-change jaw system permit faster setups, reduced cycle times and compatibility with standard jaw tooling.
Why choose the TK air-operated 3-jaw?Designed for a wide range of turning tasks, the TK family supports higher spindle speeds and stable gripping while minimizing spindle wear. Its compatibility with industry-standard jaw systems simplifies tooling procurement across global operations.
Features & Benefits- Pre-machined tapped holes for fixture mounting, eliminating additional machining
- Pre-machined lubrication path for connection to an auto-lubrication unit
- Built-in cylinder provides more stable and repeatable gripping
- Dowel pins in master jaws for accurate and simplified remounting of soft jaws
- Good coaxiality and repeatability down to ~1 µm, streamlining machining processes
ApplicationsSuitable for heavy-duty machining of disks and bars, and for high-precision finishing of easily deformed parts. Compatible with standard jaws for interchangeability in US, European and Asian tooling environments.
