ITW Workholding's new Quick-Pitch Diaphragm is aimed primarily at gear families, but the chuck also has applications in hard turning and grinding operations where repeatability, inter-changeability, and roundness are a concern. A fixed-length pin locates against the master jaw of the diaphragm and extends the distance to the pitch diameter. The pin is housed in a jaw that orients the unit and contains the "Quick- Change" feature of snap-in-place housing and a retained screw system. Replacement of worn pin sets constitutes sliding out the old and inserting the new, no adjustment is necessary. Four models are available spanning pitch diameters from 25 mm to 350 mm with three and six jaw systems.
