Basic safety notes
Intended use
The product is used to clamp workpieces in machine tools or
assembly devices during machining.
• Rotation of the lathe chuck can be initiated by the machine
during machining or the lathe chuck can be at rest. The use of
coolants during machining is permitted.
• Use top jaws with a suitable interface and associated T-nuts.
• Workpiece specifications:
– Workpiece temperature between 0°C and 100°C.
– Interference circuit diameter of the workpiece must be
smaller or at most equal to the outer diameter of the lathe
chuck.
– Sufficient rigidity in the elastic range to absorb the clamping
force.
• The necessary speed of rotation and the clamping force of the
lathe chuck must be determined by the operator for the
respective clamping task, however the technical data engraved
on the lathe chuck should never be exceeded!
Any other use is not as intended.
Reasonably foreseeable misuse
Any use other than that defined under "Appropriate Use" or any
use that goes beyond that definition is considered improper use
and is prohibited.
Examples of foreseeable misuse:
• Operation by unauthorized personnel:
– incorrect mounting of the top jaws.
– incorrect actuation of the lathe chuck.
– incorrect feeding of the workpiece.
• Clamping in stroke end position of the lathe chuck:
– The clamping point is too close or directly on the stroke end
position of the lathe chuck, which means that the desired
clamping force will not act on the workpiece.
• Use of jaws that are too high or a clamping area that is too
high.
