How can we help you?

These two chucks are 7-inch diaphragm chucks. For multiple gear sizes, chucks can be provided with interchangeable cages and top jaws.

How do we do it?

We attach a custom designed axial locator cage to a standard chuck. This contains a series of floating gage pins in a flexible mounting. Then, we load the gear over the pins into the chuck. The jaws clamp over the pins to center and grip the gear providing a “best fit” centerline of the pitch diameter.

 

Pitch line gear chucks can be provided in sizes from 3-inch to 12-inch diameter, sliding jaw or diaphragm models and can be applied to spur or helical gear applications.
