Everyone must know where hydraulic chucks are used. Hydraulic chucks are widely used in CNC machine tools. Hydraulic chucks can be divided into two structures,
one is a pull-out hydraulic chuck, and the other is a built-in hydraulic chuck, which is an integration of the chuck and the rotary cylinder.
This type of installation is relatively simple and convenient, and the price is also relatively economical.
Improper or inappropriate lubrication will lead to some problems such as abnormal function at low pressure, weakened clamping force, and poor clamping accuracy.
Maintenance methods of hydraulic chucks:
Hydraulic chucks are abnormally worn and stuck, so the chuck must be lubricated correctly. When using chuck lubricating oil,
be sure to clean the chuck body and slide surface with an air gun or similar tool at the end of the operation.
Using cutting oil with rust-proof effect can prevent rust inside the chuck. In case of rust, it will reduce the clamping force, so special attention must be paid.
The hydraulic chuck chuck must be removed and thoroughly cleaned at least once every six months, but if cutting cast iron, it must be thoroughly cleaned at least once or more every two months.
Check whether the parts of the hydraulic chuck are broken or worn. If serious, replace them with new ones immediately. After the inspection, it is necessary to fully oil it before assembly.
Advantages of using hydraulic chucks:
1. Work efficiency has been improved, greatly reducing the labor intensity of workers.
2. Good safety performance. After installation, the parts will automatically rotate, and the workpiece will not fall even in the event of an emergency power outage.
3. The hydraulic chuck is hollow and full-through, which is convenient for long material processing and installation of feeders.
4. The built-in hydraulic chuck is easy to install. It only requires a hydraulic station and no other equipment is required, which saves production costs.
5. The clamping force of the equipment can be adjusted at will, which can greatly meet the production needs of most products.
