Only original SCHUNK spare parts may be used. Intended use The chuck is used to clamp workpieces on machine tools and other suitable technical facilities, paying particular attention to the tech- nical data specified by the manufacturer.
• The lathe chuck may only be used on machines and facilities that fulfill the minimum requirements of the EC Machinery Di- rective; specifically, they must have effective technical measures to protect against possible mechanical hazards. 02.00|ROTA NCK plus |en...

The chucks were operated with the max. permissable force and the jaws were located exactly on line with the chuck O.D. The chuck is in perfect condition and lubricated with SCHUNK LINOMAX special grease. Should one or several of the above mentioned parameters be changed the diagrams are no longer valid.

According to VDI 3106: S ≥ 1.5. From this we can derive the calculation of the initial clamping force during shutdown: (+) for gripping from the outside inwards (–) for gripping from the inside outwards 02.00|ROTA NCK plus |en...
Calculation example: Required initial clamping force Fsp0 for a given rpm n The following data is known for the machining job: • Gripping from the outside in (application-specific) • Machining force F = 3000 N (application-specific) 02.00|ROTA NCK plus |en...

4 Next, screw the chuck tightly onto the chuck flange by means of the fastening screws using a torque wrench. During this, pay attention to the specified maximum tighten- ing torques ( 4, Page 17). 5 Next, check the radial and axial run-out again. 02.00|ROTA NCK plus |en...
The protection sleeve (4) can be pressed off the chuck body by using the additional threads with the same screws (10). 1 Push the tension rod into its foremost position. 2 Push the chuck piston (3) into its foremost position. 02.00|ROTA NCK plus |en...

Tighten the jaw mounting screws (screw grade 12.9) with the spec- ified torque ( 4, Page 17). NOTE • Tighten the jaw fastening screws with a dynamometric key. Never carry out this work by using an extension rod or by ap- plying hammer blows. 02.00|ROTA NCK plus |en...
Clean all parts of dirt and grease and check for damage. Before mounting, grease well with lubricant LINO MAX. Only use SCHUNK original spares when replacing damaged parts. Mounting of the chuck follows in reverse order. 02.00|ROTA NCK plus |en...
If clamping force has dropped too low, or if base jaws and piston cannot be moved perfectly, it is necessary to disassemble the chuck to clean it and to relubricate it. Only use SCHUNK original spares when replacing damaged parts. 02.00|ROTA NCK plus |en...
Maintenance Changing the top jaws When changing the top jaws the serration must be cleaned and greased with SCHUNK special grease LINO MAX. WARNING Danger of personal injury and property damage caused by flying parts in case of spiral fracture of soft top jaws! Soft top jaws must be hardened in the area of the screw’s coun-...
• Dispose of the chuck's metal parts as scrap metal. Alternatively, you can return the chuck to SCHUNK for proper dis- posal. 02.00|ROTA NCK plus |en...
