We have brought the production of our award-winning chucks back to the UK, to the Midlands to be precise. The complete precision machining of all Leader products will be re-shored to the UK.

 

An extensive search concluded at a Midlands company that focuses on small batch, high precision work. And, a two year contract has been placed for the production of Leader’s innovative workholding solutions, such as the unique Leader self-contained power chuck.

 

We have always appreciated that British precision engineering is among the greatest in the world. Now we also know that by working together with local suppliers here in the UK we can be globally competitive and offer bespoke solutions.

Patented

Chuck Technology at EMO

 

 

 

Autogrip Machinery exhibited its new, Patented, AP range of large through-hole 3-jaw power chucks with integrated air cylinder at the recent EMO exhibition, held in Hanover, Germany.

 

Available in four through-hole diameters, 52, 66, 86 and 115 mm, the AP range features an integrated pneumatic cylinder which powers the opening and closing of the chuck jaws. This design negates the need for a draw bar to provide the jaw clamping force, resulting in a larger through bore capacity for bar feeding raw material.

 

An integrated pressure detection device is built into the chuck to guarantee safe operation up to maximum speeds that extend from 4,200 rpm for the AP-52 to 3,000 rpm for the AP-115.
