For the chuck THW plus it's necessary to determine those 

data specific. Calculation examples are in the chapter 

"Technology" in the SCHUNK-lathe-chuck-catalog or in the 

chapter "Special jaws/Technology" in the SCHUNK-power-

chuck-catalog. Those catalogs are also available as down-

load at www.de.schunk.com. 

  

The maximum permissible speed for special machining has to be 

defined by the user on the basis of the required clamping forces. 

This speed must not exceed the maximum speed of the chuck. 

Warranty and maximum clamping cycles 

  

Length of warranty 

24 Months 

Maximum clamping cycle number 

500 000 Cycles 

  

Ensure minimal weight for all jaws.  

For unhardened top jaws or chuck jaws in special design, the per-

missible RPM according to VDI 3106 must be calculated for the re-

spective machining job. Whereby the recommended maximum 

speed must not be exceeded. The values calculated must be 

checked by means of dynamic measurement using a clamping 

force tester. 

 

Clamping force / speed diagrams 

The diagrams refer to 3-jaw-chuck. 
Clamping force/rpm curves have been determined by using hard 

jaws. In the determination process, the maximum actuating force
