Diaphragm chuck eases fragile part machining

Holding a fragile workpiece without dmaging or distorting it has always been a problem, now a self-contained diaphragm chuck has a built-in air cylinder to provide better grip control.

A standard three-jaw chuck can distort fragile parts, such as rings or thin-wall tubes, very easily.

Most users will use special workholding equipment or magnetic chucks to minimize damage on workpieces.

However, this is not a cost-effective and efficient way to accomplish delicate machining tasks.

Jato Precision, the professional designer and manufacturer of diaphragm chucks, self-contained chucks and air cylinders, provides hassle-free, self-contained diaphragm chuck - the JAP100 Series Cylinder-integrated Diaphragm Chuck - to grip delicate components.

The Jato JAP100 diaphragm chuck has a built-in air cylinder, so no draw tube or air feeder is needed.

The design gives users a totally hassle-free work gripping system, which only requires users to front mount the JAP100 diaphragm chuck to the machine tool's main spindle.

The clamping force of JAP100 diaphragm chuck is proportional to input air pressure, giving more control over adjusting it and keeping delicate workpieces intact.

JAP100 diaphragm chuck's jaw pad is made of harden bearing steel, largely reducing the frequency of changing jaws.

And since it's a full circle jaw, workpieces will be evenly clamped.

Jato JAP100 diaphragm chuck's repeatability is within 2 micron with a through hole included in each JAP100 Series model.
