CENCHRO TAPPING CHUCKS

A new Tapping chuck to maximize efficiency and lower costs in all Rigid Tapping or Synchronous feed Tapping applications.

In theory; with a rigid tapping application the machine keeps the relationship between feed rate
and rotational forces timed perfectly. Any deviation in the feed rate in relation to the RPM creates unnecessary wear on the tap causing poor tap life and inaccurate tapped holes. The new technology built into the CenChro Tapping Chucks compensates for the minute discrepancies between the machines feed rate and RPM throughout the entire tapping cycle. CenChro Tapping Chucks have 0.5mm controlled movement in the tension and compression modes to compensate for minute deviations and allow the tap to be influenced only by rotational force, and produce gage perfect threads with depth repeatability.

Increase productivity with the new CenChro Tapping Chucks by reducing downtime for tap changes, increased speeds and higher quality tapped holes.
CenChro Tapping Chucks use RTS Tapping Collets and RTS Sealed Tapping Collets for coolant through applications.

CCSPL ALL-PURPOSE TAPPING ATTACHMENT

For tapping operations on reversible drilling and tapping machines, lathes, mills, and others.

 

  • Safety chuck
  • Radial parallel float
  • Length compensation

Centaur CCSPL all-purpose tapping attachmentPRODUCT FEATURES

The Centaur CCSPL provides a wide-range, twin chucking head for the direct clamping of taps. There is no need for separate collets. An adjustable safety torque clutch helps prevent tap breakage. Radial parallel float compensates for misalignment between hole and tap. Length compensation on compression and tension compensates for the difference between machine feed and tap pitch.

Safety Torque Clutch. The safety clutch is infinitely variable to the required tap size torque by simply adjusting to scale. The safety clutch disengages when the preset torque is exceeded. After disengagement, there is virtually no torque on the tap, minimizing clutch wear. This prevents tool breakage. Blind holes can be bottom tapped under full rotation of the spindle. Reversing the spindle, the clutch reengages and the tap is automatically withdrawn.

Radial Parallel Float. This ball-bearing float device guarantees threads to exact tolerance. It also protects misaligned taps against side thrust. It automatically centers after every tapping operation.

Length Compensation. Ball-cage length compensation provides smooth axial movement, even in the presence of maximum torque. This free axial movement prevents damage to thread flanks when the feed rate and tap pitch do not match. It also permits cutting small threads on heavy machines.The length compensation positions at zero point and is therefore also suitable for machine feed.

NOTE: CCSPL tapping attachment is suitable for right-hand threads only. For left-hand threads on request.
