Design and innovation of chuck for lathe machine / Muhamad Faiz Jofri ... [et al.]

Nowadays, many high technology machine, mechanical devices, and modern mechanical processes exist to create better product and produce it instantly. Lathe machine is one of the machines that create mechanical parts instantly. Even lathe machine is conventional machine but it is the basic process need to know in the educational field. One o f the part of lathe machine is chuck. It is function use to hold the work piece. The constraint of the existing chuck is it is cannot cut work piece that has length o f less than 40 mm. the cutter will collide with the existing chuck. Due to this problem, mini chuck are proposed to overcome the problem of cutting work piece that has length of less than 4 0 mm. Mini chuck are used on a lathe machine to hold the work piece that has length of less than 40 mm with minimum diameter of 20 mm and maximum diameter of 50 mm. Mini chuck is designed for ease of installation without need to change the existing chuck at lathe machine. It only need to be attached at existing chuck and can be used instantly. As a result, mini chuck can help the worker in workshop to perform better job while used lathe machine.
