Basic safety notes

• Due to the clamping force and height of the clamping area, a
moment load acts on the guideways of the lathe chuck. This
must not exceed the maximum value.
• Incorrect application parameters for the machining situation.
No determination of the clamping force or maximum speed of
rotation required for the clamping situation. These parameters
can be calculated from the desired machining situation.
• Exceeding the technical data of the lathe chuck. Actuation with
an actuation moment that is too high, rotation above the
maximum speed of rotation.
• Use on machines other than machine tools or assembly
devices.
• Use as a safety component.
• Carelessness, lack of concentration.
• Clamping of insufficiently rigid workpieces, clamping of
workpieces that do not meet the specifications:
– The rigidity of the workpiece is not sufficient to provide the
lathe chuck with the necessary resistance that will allow the
clamping force to build up.
• Use for stationary or rotating processes where there is no
workpiece or the workpiece is not clamped.
• Use of chuck jaws that have not been approved by SCHUNK
(self-built, third-party products).
• Removing the release mechanism from the actuation key.
• By removing the release mechanism, the actuation key can
remain on the lathe chuck.
Constructional changes
Implementation of structural changes
By conversions, changes, and reworking, e.g. additional threads,
holes, or safety devices can impair the functioning or safety of the
product or damage it.
• Structural changes should only be made with the written
approval of SCHUNK.
