How Chuck Change Can Help Make Money

Using the right workholding for the part allows for increased feeds/speeds and safety.  Chuck Change® allows you to mount different types of workholding devices to a single machine spindle, permitting you to use the optimum workholding device to machine your parts.

The receiver is mounted to the machine and adapters are fitted to your chucks. Changeovers are performed by four steps 1) release cams 2) push release button 3) rotate chuck counterclockwise 4) remove workholding device.
