Diaphragm turning chuck DPH series

Northfield Diaphragm Chucks are the most accurate chucks in the world and are the fastest to open and close out of all of the chuck types (scroll, manual, hydraulic, sliding jaw). They require no maintenance since they are completely sealed from any dirt or oil, and have no metal-to-metal sliding components. Therefore, their expected life span can go on for millions of cycles. All Northfield chucks are self-centering. And if you are looking for high accuracy, then the Northfield Diaphragm Chuck is the way to go. For any custom chucks, contact Northfield Engineering staff for additional information. • Air Actuated - Air driven actuation is easier and cleaner than hydraulic actuation because it does not require a hydraulic pump, which means more control with the grip force - allowing a range of medium to delicate part grip. It's also simpler to set up. • Additional Actuation Options - There are multiple ways to power Northfield chucks, including spring clamp-air open, or air clamp-spring open. Other custom actuation applications are available upon request. • External Grip - All standard diaphragm chucks focus on external grip only, for hard turning, grinding, assembly, milling, and inspection applications. • 6 Standard Jaw Pads - The diaphragm chuck comes standard with 6 jaw pads. The number of jaws can also be customized based on your product needs. • Stationary Capable - All Northfield chucks can be used for stationary applications as well as rotating applications.
