How KITAGAWA lathe power chuck works? Manual mode?

<< < (2/2)

PekkaNF:
Thank you, but I think this is more simple, just a drawbar (pushbar?) in the middle and simple wedge actuating mechanism.

Still....if it had a big box jaws, I would be very tempted, but to use it manually would be too much of a task. I thought I could use a simple threaded tube a-la manual milling machine draw bar.

No reason that you couldn't fit a 'draw tube' to the back of the chuck through your spindle, and have a threaded 'closer wheel' rather like a collet closer to tighten and hence close, the chuck.

You might have to be a bit inventive if your spindle bore is a bit small  :scratch:

PekkaNF:
That turned out to be a red herring....Fine in all the counts but it is missing the centre part (wedge tha moves the jaws), it has T-nuts, but no jaws....explains the 160€ asking price.

Type is B206, pretty good othervice.

awemawson:
Bad luck  :(

The one I fitted to the Traub said in it's documentation, that it was entirely interchangeable with a B206 - a very nice bit of engineering by Schunk
