Chuck Force Gauges - Wired

Designed to quickly check the holding force on a chuck or turning-center. The wired chuck force gauge can be customized for any diameter.

Chuck Force Sensor Extensions and Accessories

Accessories for the chuck force include a variety of types of rest pads and extensions to match the gripping jaws on a turning-center/chuck.

Wireless Chuck Force Gauges

The ForceCheck wireless chuck force gauge is designed to quickly and accurately measure holding force and speed on chucks. Verifying chuck holding force allows manufacturers to improve the repeatability of a manufacturing process by checking actual holding force under dynamic (rotating) conditions, as well as perform critical preventative maintenance checks. Contact us for other clamping diameters and extension rings, as well as 4+ jaw chucks.

ForceCheck Workholding Collet Force Gauge

ForceCheck collet force gauges provide a quick and easy way to check force on collet workholding systems. Applications for ForceCheck workholding collet force gauges include: <ul> <li>Comparison of holding force between machines, allowing for consistent and repeatable production results regardless of mechanism (manual, hydraulic, or pneumatic)</li> <li>Periodic verification to assess if preventive maintenance is needed</li> <li>Establish correct holding force for running a particular part or job</li> <li>Determine optimal holding force for thin-wall, rings, and other parts sensitive to damage or distortion when machining</li> </ul> A sensor is needed for each diameter to be measured. A ForceCheck base set with display is needed to display results (order separately). Sensors are also available in low-force versions. Contact us for further information.

Senso 3000 Hydraulic Tool Holder Force Gauge

The SENSO 3000 is a specialized tool for verifying correct operation of hydraulic tool holders. For workholding collet force gauges, please see our ForceCheck collet force gauges. SENSO 3000 determines the clamping force of the hydraulic chuck via a pressure sensitive plug gauge. The entire length of the plug gauge is clamped in the hydraulic chuck so that when tightening the clamping screw the clamping pressure of the chuck is optimally applied. The clamping force measuring instrument displays the clamping force as an absolute measurement value on the one hand and as a percentage clamping force in relation to a reference value that can be set individually on the other. This way, SENSO 3000 can be adapted to customer specific application conditions and requirements. The clamping force measuring instrument is supplied with a plug gauge for the respective clamping diameter as well as a carbide proofing bar for calibration purposes and a CR 2430 type battery – all in a sturdy and handy case.

Wireless Chuck Force Sensor Manual

The ForceCheck chuck force gauge is designed to measure the clamping forces created by a chuck. The wireless sensor can be used for either static (non-rotating) or dynamic (rotating) measurements. When rotating, the sensor can also measure RPM (Revolutions Per Minute).

Collet Force Gauges

The original ForceCheck collet force gauge has been replaced by application-specific versions. For hydraulic tool holders and milling chucks: <a href="https://tacrockford.com/product/gauges/force-check/hydraulic-tool-holder-force-gauges/">Series 495.250 ForceCheck Hydraulic Tool Holder Force Gauges</a> For workholding collets: <a href="https://tacrockford.com/product/gauges/workholding/forcecheck-worholding-collet-force-gauge/">Series 495.245 ForceCheck Workholding Collet Force Gauge</a> With the ForceCheck collet force gauge, the clamping forces on collets and hydraulic tool holders can be measured to obtain accurate machining specifications while fulfilling ISO standard requirements. Available in complete sets for 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, 1, 10 mm, 16 mm, 20 mm, 25 mm and other diameters. The ForceCheck collet force gauge allows tool holder and workholding collet holding force to be quickly and easily measured. Because it is problematic to measure, this critical holding force is typically not checked, even though it plays an important role in manufacturing repeatability. TAC Rockford, makers of the ForceCheck drawbar clamping measurement system, offers a simple, efficient, and consistently accurate collet force measurement unit. With this system you can accurately and consistently measure the clamping forces on collets and hydraulic tool holders to obtain accurate machining specifications while fulfilling your company's or customer's ISO standard requirements. Complete sets include a durable display with standard 9 volt battery, connecting cable, carrying case, and measuring bar. Individual measuring bars for any size diameter are available.

Machine-Integrated Drawbar Force Gauges

The machine-integrated drawbar force gauge automates drawbar force measurement. With a wireless force sensor stored in the tool changer, a machine can periodically automatically check the drawbar without stopping production. Drawbar force is returned to the machine control via a wireless receiver, automatically alerting the operator if insufficient force is detected.

Workholding Collet Drawbar Force Gauge

ForceCheck collet force gauges measure the drawbar pullback force of a 5C, 16C, or 20C collet workholding system. Measurement of collet drawbar force provides an easy way to ensure correct force from machine to machine, or between setups for different parts.
