Calculation of the required clamping force in case of a given rpm
The
initial clamping force F
sp0
is the total force impacting radially
on the workpiece via the jaws due to actuation of the lathe chuck
during shutdown. Under the influence of rotation, the jaw mass
generates an additional centrifugal force. The centrifugal force
reduces or increases the initial clamping force depending on
whether gripping is from the outside inwards or from the inside
outwards.
The sum of the initial clamping force F
sp0
and the total centrifugal
force F
c
is the effective clamping force F
sp
.
