Quick Jaw Change Chucks

PreciÃ’ chucks (or quick jaw change chucks) were earlier manufactured by M/s Batliboi & Co in collaboration with Reishauer of Switzerland. These chucks are unique in design and accuracy with no scroll, no cams but with screw, rack and pinion drive. The chuck body is made of carbon steel forging and fitted with hardened and precision ground guides to ensure long lasting accuracy. The chucks are suitable for high spindle speeds. The reversible jaws are made of drop forged steel, hardened and ground. The jaws can be reset in less than one minute. Accuracy is obtained by grip grinding. It is also possible to mount soft jaws. It is advisable to take an additional set of base jaws for mounting soft jaws for higher productivity. These chucks provide maximum gripping power in minimum space. This results in less operator fatigue and deeper depth of cut. These chucks actively promote SMED (single minute exchange of dies), and can reduce the set-up time for the machine. This time saved can be used for value adding activi
