4-jaw hollow manual chuck INOFlex®VM
NK Works Co., Ltd.
About This Product
■Product overview
INOFlex® is a flexible chuck suitable for almost all clamping tasks on modern machine tools. Regardless of workpiece geometry, workpiece material or type of machining, INOFlex® solves all clamping challenges. With four jaws and a patented correction mechanism, rotating workpieces and square timber workpieces can be safely clamped from the center.
In particular, the compensation function ensures that all clamping points always have the same clamping force. Various combinations are possible by arranging the four jaws at a 90° pitch.
For example, centering clamps can be performed using two opposing jaws. There is no need to do anything to the two unused jaws, and they can be left removed. Therefore, no special preparations are required for centering clamps with two jaws.
If a clear reference edge is required, up to two fixed stops can be used instead of the 4-jaw and 2-jaw centering clamps. The two clamping axes each have a defined reference and are equivalent to clamping with fixed jaws.
■Product features
・Patented. Operating principle of 4-jaw correction function
・INOFlex® always applies force evenly to all four claws
■Use examples
``The workpiece has four surfaces, two of which are flat and the other two semicircular, making it almost impossible to clamp them properly with a conventional three-jaw chuck. ” the user recalls. “The advantage of the INOFlex® compensating four-jaw chuck is that component parts can always be correctly centered with high precision.”
The workpiece before processing is made of zinc die-casting and has almost no processing tolerances. Needless to say, productivity has been greatly improved by eliminating the need for positioning work, which requires processing hundreds of workpieces each time.
■Application
・Clamping of round, square, rectangular, and irregularly shaped workpieces
・Suitable for parts sensitive to deformation
・Clamping of hollow work/partially hollow work
・Inner diameter clamp/outer diameter clamp
■Technical features
・Concentric correction clamp
・Clamp stroke control
