Hydraulic Chuck

Learn how we’ve adapted our tool holders to meet the coolant demands of modern-day machining.

If your work demands accuracy or you are looking to give your 5-axis capabilities a boost, hydraulic chucks are worth considering.

Machining at higher speeds can save time and money, however, increasing the speed also means increasing the inherent risk in the situation. To maximize speed potential, a holistic approach that considers tool, holder, machine and operator is essential.

The hydraulic chucks for Swiss lathes offering has expanded to include inch-size standard chucks, as well as new F Type and R Type chucks.

When it comes to aerospace components, the slightest imperfection could be catastrophic. Our experts answer five questions about boring precision holes on aerospace parts.

BIG KAISER expands jet-through hydraulic chuck line to include the BCV interface and additional inch sizes.

The is no general rule to cutting tool shank insertion as a multiplier for shank diameter. All tool holder types have different requirements.

Hydraulic chucks are an excellent choice for high accuracy applications due to their ability to maintain runout accuracy over an extended period of time.

Overall gripping strength increases as you increase the size of your tool holders (when looking at the same type of holder).

Shrink-fit and hydraulic holders are both useful in low clearance, tight work envelopes found in moldmaking and multi-axis machining applications. When deciding which one to use, their differences will guide your choice.
