Robust mechanical engineering for excellent process reliability
Technology partner ACCURL has developed robust, pneumatically operated chucks for the TubeLINE BK series. These can precisely realize even highly dynamic motion sequences and are versatile in terms of the geometries to be clamped: square profiles, pipes, elliptical profiles, flat profiles and triangular geometries as well as I-beams and other material shapes can be easily clamped and processed.

Rear chuck:
The rear chuck is equipped with a pressure feedback system to optimally adjust the clamping pressure to the pipe diameter and the respective wall thickness. The system is also characterised by automatic recognition of different pipe geometries.

Medium chuck:
Together with the rear and front chucks, the centre chuck ensures that the material to be processed is brought into exactly the desired position over the entire length at all times. Even at extremely high cutting speeds, an extremely high level of stability is achieved despite maximum agility, which enables optimum cutting results.

Front chuck:
The perfect interaction of the rear and centre chucks with the front chuck, which feeds the material to the cutting area, ensures maximum efficiency: Clamping the material is absolutely uncomplicated, takes just a few seconds and ensures a very high level of repeat accuracy thanks to its very high precision.
