Workholding Gauges

Workholding Collet Force

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:

• Comparison of holding force between machines, allowing for consistent and repeatable production results regardless of mechanism (manual, hydraulic, or pneumatic)
• Periodic verification to assess if preventive maintenance is needed
• Establish correct holding force for running a particular part or job
• Determine optimal holding force for thin-wall, rings, and other parts sensitive to damage or distortion when machining

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.

Collet Pullback Force

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.

ID Collet Force

ForceCheck ID Collet Force Sensors are designed for use with internal gripping collets, chucks, and mandrels. Sensors are customized to the collet; please contact our engineering team with your collet specifications.
