CK Chucker for Large-Diameter Workpieces



"Kingston's CK Chucker model uses its features to combine powerful heavy-duty cuts with high accuracy," said a Kingston spokesperson. The 4-speed headstock and robust spindle construction are built for high turning torque (9,000 Nm at low speeds), while the heavily ribbed one-piece casting and 28" wide two V-way bed provide rigidity when cutting large-diameter workpieces.

The Chucker is suitable for the oil and gas industry, where it can be put on a pipe rack and used to do end-threading on tubing or casing applications.

"The CK Chucker excels in pipe threading applications," said Scott Eddins, President of H & S Machine Tools in New Orleans, LA, "as well as basic turning for large valve bodies."

Darren Peltier, Product Specialist for Champions Machine Tool in Spring, TX, said, "This machine can also serve a variety of markets that require large turning and boring capabilities. Imagine large seal rings for the aerospace industry or valves in a nuclear power plant."

"The CK Chucker's ability to handle the hardest materials, even titanium alloys, makes it an ideal choice in the manufacture of hydraulic cylinders and turbine engines for the marine, aviation and aerospace sectors. With the power and torque available from the spindle as well as the Z-axis thrust available in the design of the machine, this machine is perfect for many markets," Peltier added, "being a great fit anywhere large turning and boring is required."

The CK Chucker is available with a 9.25" bore and 40" swing, and a 14.8" bore version with a 34" swing.

"People forget that the 9-inch spindle version of this machine also happens to have a 40-inch diameter swing, which is almost unheard of in the slant bed world," Peltier said. "And even if you find that slant bed that has that much swing, you also can not turn the O.D. of a 40-inch diameter part for a very long distance because the cross slide always gets in the way."

"Kingston designed the CK Chucker to thrive in environments where lighter-duty machines give up," said the spokesperson. "The powerful H6 350 turret (with 3" boring bar holder) sits atop a specially designed carriage with a larger contact area and a beefy box way cross slide with extra guide way for enhanced stability and accuracy. This rigidity, combined with the machine's massive torque and high loading capacity, make the CK Chucker capable of handling the toughest jobs."
