Lathe Chuck: Precision Workholding Device for Lathes

This page introduces lathe chucks, essential workholding devices for lathes that securely clamp workpieces during machining. Typically made of durable cast iron or steel, they feature jaws (e.g., three-jaw, four-jaw) to grip cylindrical or irregular shapes. Topics include chuck types, clamping mechanisms, applications in turning operations, and key performance factors like concentricity and clamping force.

A self-centering versatile chuck is the 3-jaw lathe chuck which is perfectly suited for symmetrical workpieces such as bars, tubes, and gears. The three jaws are actuated together with a scroll plate and they achieve centering accuracy of ±0.05mm for rough work and up to ±0.01mm for precision work. They are made of ductile iron or steel and range in diameter from 75mm to 1250mm. They are commonly employed in automotive, plumbing and general engineering workshops.

Frequently Asked Questions

What industry standards do lathe chucks meet?

They meet ISO 15552 and ASME B5.1, ensuring compatibility with global lathe manufacturers like Haas and Mori Seiki for automotive, medical, and aerospace applications.
