High Precision Milling/Drilling Chucks for Speed

Emuge Corp., in partnership with Albrecht Precision Chucks, has introduced high precision/performance Emuge FPC Mill/Drill Chucks that provide increased rigidity, vibration dampening, concentricity, machining speed and tool life.

Featuring a 1:16 worm gear, Emuge FPC Chuck's patented design delivers 3 tons of traction force. The design and body provide 100% holding power for increased rigidity, and the collet-cone assembly absorbs all vibration for increased dampening.

Features and advantages of the FPC Chucks include:

• High transferable torque that provides increased process reliability. Transferred torque on a tool shank diameter of 20 mm is 400 Nm
• Increased accuracy with a 3 x D tool length, concentricity is ≤ 3 µm to guarantee long tool life and quality work piece surface finishes
• Chuck is mechanical drive-actuated with a hex wrench; a simple design that helps to enable quick tool change
• Special holder design reduces vibration that helps to improve workpiece surface finishes and provides long tool life
• For safety, strong clamping force to prevent the possibility of pull-out.

"FPC Chucks are the fastest on the market today," said a company spokesperson. "In a speed comparison with four chuck technologies, using a 20 mm end mill in the same material, the Emuge FPC Chuck enabled the feedrate to be increased by 30% with no loss in performance."

Emuge FPC Chucks are available in four shank styles (CAT, HSK-A, SK and BT) in 47 different sku's for a range of applications. A full range of high precision collets and accessories are also available for the FPC line. Emuge FPC Collets are available in three size ranges (FPC 14, FPC 20 and FPC 25) in over 35 different sku's, from 1/8" to 1-1/4" and in metric from 2 mm - 32 mm.
