Three miniature systems
Miniature lathe chuck is a small and precise type of chuck used to hold tiny and delicate parts in small turning machines and micromechanical devices. These chucks are typically made from high-precision hardened alloy steel to withstand wear, pressure, and heat generated during continuous work. The compact size and precise design of miniature chucks enable secure holding of small and sensitive components, making them widely used in precision industries such as watchmaking, medical equipment, and electronics.
Structurally, miniature chucks have small jaws and a very delicate internal mechanism that is usually manually adjusted, with synchronous jaw movement ensuring the concentricity of the workpiece. The body of these chucks is designed to be lightweight yet strong to minimize vibration during operation, improving the quality of the machined surface. Due to their limited dimensions, manufacturing accuracy and assembly precision are especially important to prevent slipping or damage to sensitive parts. Ultimately, using these chucks in small lathes significantly enhances the accuracy and quality of machining operations.
