Universal high-performance lathe chucks

The ROTA NCD wedge bar power chuck from SCHUNK is extremely versatile. It is used for clamping small diameters as quickly and precisely as large ones. Instead of exchanging lathe chucks and collet chucks, which can be tedious, just the top jaws of the ROTA NCD have to be exchanged against special collet jaws. This minimizes set-up times and allows a considerably higher output.
