In one setup you can use:
FlexC Quick Change Collets
5C/16C Collet Adapter
Sure-Grip Expanding Collets
5C/16C Step Chucks & Closers
Note: Adapters are not Thru hole compatible
FlexC Chuck styles available
1. Style A (Pull-Back Design) with a Dead-Length® Workstop
The collet pulls the workpiece against a fixed-axis stop for length control. You can unclamp workpieces to the required length and adapt them to the workpiece geometry by using a matched workpiece stop. The workpiece stop can be removed for bar work.
2. Style DL (Push-to-Close) with Dead-Length® Style
The Style DLquick change is a push-to-close design with a dead length work stop. The collet and work stop are both stationary to provide precise length control. This feature makes it possible to accurately transfer parts to within .0005″.
Hardinge’s custom engineering department can design and manufacture special FlexC collets for any application. Special applications include stepped holes, special shapes, off-center and more.
