Máquinas usadas Chucks, pneumatic

Chuck (pneumatic) is a tool clamping system that is operated pneumatically. It is usually used in machine tools such as lathes, milling machines or drilling machines to securely and accurately fix workpieces or tools. The chuck consists of a base plate and a clamping head, which is opened and closed by an air cylinder. When the compressed air system is switched on, the chuck head is closed and the workpiece or tool is securely fixed. When the compressed air system is switched off, the clamping head is opened and the workpiece or tool can be removed. Pneumatic chucks have the advantage of being quick and easy to operate because they are powered by the compressed air system. They are also very reliable and can apply large forces to the workpiece to ensure secure and accurate clamping.
