Model 450 Air Chuck

Northfield Precision Instrument Corp. explains how mounting a set of four Model 450 custom-designed air chucks on the customer's machine improves finishing efficiency. The four air chucks (with special top tooling) are mounted on a pallet that installs on the bed of the customer's machine. The machine's pick-and-place arm picks up the parts after they are finished in the front two chucks and transfers them to the rear two chucks for finishing. All hosing is routed under the plate for actuation of the chuck's jaws.
