SELF-CONTAINED POWER CHUCK
SPEEDS CLAMPING PROCESS,
PREVENTS CONTAMINANTS
Schunk Inc.'s Rota TB2 pneumatic self-contained
power chuck features a new design to reduce
maintenance costs and ensure process reliability.
Despite the compact outer dimensions, the Rota
TB2 has a large through-hole ranging to 560 mm.
With an air pressure of 6 bar, it is possible to
achieve clamping forces of as much as 280 kN.
Base-jaw guidance is equipped with a special
seal to prevent penetration of contaminants,
helping reduce maintenance costs. The design
of the base jaws
h a s b e e n o p t i -
mized for minimal
loss of centrifugal
force, even at high
rotational speeds.
A n a d v a n c e d
lubrication system
ensures constant
clamping forces,
a n d a n o pti o n a l inte g rate d p re s s u re s e ns o r
provides maximum process reliability.
To increase the cycle rate when machining
pipes and rods, the Rota TB2 features a double-
acting check valve with extra-large channel bores,
speeding up the clamping process. Upon comple-
tion, the quick-action ventilation system releases
the clamping setup.
The TB2 is available in sizes from 470 to 1,000
mm with bore diameters from 185 to 560 mm.
