3-3 Relationship between gripping part center height, static griping force and input
force / Relationship between top jaw mass moment and gripping force loss
If the gripping part center height of the used top jaw (dimension H in Fig. 7) is higher than the gripping part center height of the
standard soft jaw, a large load is applied to the master jaw, T nut, jaw attaching bolts, etc. To prevent these parts from being
broken, it is necessary to use the machine by using a lower input force than the allowable maximum input force.
Additionally, if the top jaw is larger and heavier, the centrifugal force generated at the top jaw will increase. It is necessary to
examine the dynamic gripping force considering the centrifugal force and to use the machine at a rotation speed that can
withstand the cutting force.
2.Allowable maximum rotation speed
In the case of outside diameter gripping, when the chuck is rotated, the gripping force lowers due to the centrifugal force
of the top jaw. Therefore, the rotation speed when the dynamic gripping force (gripping force during rotation) becomes
approximately 1/3 of the maximum static gripping force is set as the allowable maximum rotation speed. The centrifugal
force is different depending on the mass of the top jaw and the barycentric position as well as the rotation speed. The
allowable maximum rotation speed specified in the specification is the value under the following conditions:
・The Kitagawa standard soft jaw is used.
・Grip the gripping force meter in the center of the jaw stroke, and at this point, the soft jaw is attached at the position
where the periphery side end of the soft jaw and the chuck periphery are almost lined up.
・The numerical values are obtained by the Kitagawa gripping force meter. The gripping position of the gripping force
meter is at a position 1/2 of the height of the soft jaw top surface (height from the chuck surface to the top surface of
the jaw).
3.Relationship between gripping force and rotation speed
As the rotation speed becomes higher, the centrifugal force of the jaw increases and the gripping force lowers. The
curves displayed in Fig. 6 shows relationships between the rotation speed and the centrifugal force when using the
standard soft jaw. The centrifugal force differs significantly depending on the size and shape of the top jaw and the
attaching position, therefore, when the rotation speed is high, actual measurement using a Kitagawa gripping force
meter is required.
To avoid serious accidents caused by the chuck or work flying out:
・Determine the gripping force required for processing by the machine tool manufacturer or user, and check that
the required gripping force is provided before processing. The gripping force of the chuck must not exceed the
maximum static gripping force.
・Determine the rotation speed required for processing by the machine tool manufacturer or user based on the
gripping force required for the processing. The rotation speed at this point must not exceed the allowable
maximum rotation speed.
・In the case of processing a considerably unbalanced work, lower the rotation speed. The work will fly out and this is
dangerous.
・Vibration is generated if there is unbalance due to the work and the jig, etc. Vibration decreases process precision and
shortens the working life of the chuck, even possibly breaking it. Correct the unbalance by using a balance weight,
etc., or lower the rotation speed for use.
・In the case of heavy cutting at high rotation speed, vibration is easily generated in the same manner as the unbalance
of the chuck, therefore, set the cutting conditions appropriate for the dynamic gripping force and machine rigidity.
・Keep the height of the top jaw within the range of the gripping force limit table. (Refer to Fig.8)
・If a top jaw is taller than the standard soft jaw, use it at the input force (piston thrust force, draw pipe drawing
force) specified in the gripping force limit table. If it is used without lowering the input, the chuck will break and
this is dangerous as the chuck and work will fly out.
・When determining the cutting conditions, refer to pages 13-16.
・Pay attention since the gripping force is different depending on the state of the oil supply, grease in use, height of
the jaw, performance of the pump and the pressure reducing valve, piping state, etc.
