CAUTION
Hazard from vibration due to imbalanced rotating parts and
noise generation.
Physical and mental strains due to imbalanced workpieces and
noise during the machining process on the clamped and rotating
workpiece.
• Ensure the chuck's axial and concentric runout.
• Check options for remedying imbalances on special top jaws
and workpieces.
• Reduce the speed.
• Wear hearing protection.
Notes on safe operation
• The machine spindle may only be started up when clamping
pressure has built up in the cylinder and clamping has followed
in the permitted work area.
• Unclamping may only be possible when the machine spindle
has come to a standstill.
• If the clamping energy fails, the workpiece must remain firmly
clamped until the spindle is shut down and the workpiece is
secured.
• The technical safety requirements in the respective operating
instructions must be observed exactly.
Functional test
After installation of the chuck, its function must be checked prior
to start-up.
Two important points are:
•
Clamping Force!
The clamping force of the chuck must be
achieved at max. operating force/pressure.
•
Stroke control!
The stroke of the clamping piston must allow a
safety zone at the front and rear end position. The machine
spindle may only be started when the clamping piston has
passed through the safety zone. Only limit switches that meet
the requirements for safety limit switches specified in DIN EN
60204-1 may be used.
