Design layout
The MBS chucks are sealed and don't have any jaw guides. As a consequence of this, they are especially wear-resistant and suitable for machining of abrasive materials (e.g. carbide metal, ceramics).
On thin-walled parts a paling clamping and a very senisive adjustment of the clamping force are granting a non-deforming machining of the parts.
The chucks are consiting of following, essentially components (MBS-L depicted):
| No. | Designation |
| 1 | Top jaws |
| 2 | Actuating screw |
| 3 | Actuating washer |
| 4 | Part stop spider |
| 5 | Diaphragm |
| 6 | Chuck body |
| 7 | Piston |
| 8 | Air connection |
| 9 | Cylinder |
