Changing a chuck is like going to the dentist. You just want to get it over with. That’s why SMW Autoblok made the CCS Chuck Switching System with the highest repeatability and accuracy.
It’s specifically engineered for quick change-over of workholding on CNC machines. In other words, it’s simple, fast and does it right the first time.
How does it work? A single action automatically engages the coupling of the chuck. It doesn’t get much easier than that. A quick look at the optical control confirms the locking status. You’re done. It’s painless and over before you know it. When you’ve completed the machining process and are ready to change chucks again, release of the CCS is as simple as the push of a button.
Match the CCS up with one of SMW Autoblok’s chucks like the KNCS-2G for smooth operating efficiency and top production speed. But if you have a hodge-podge of workholders around the shop that is not a problem. SMW Autoblok designed the CCS to be adaptable to any spindle and any chuck.
The CCS is available with a closed center or large through hole, allowing it to be used for special long clamping applications, such as integral shaft style components or shaft mounted gear applications, all while protecting against contamination.
