Summary: | Chuck is a device used to clamp any material that operates with the turning of the machine and it is connected to
the headstock spindle of the lathe. However, the limitation is that the thickness of the workpiece must not be less than the
area of clamping on the chuck. In this a new magnetic clamping for attaching and detaching the workpiece on the chuck
and is able to clamp small and thin workpieces is developed. The chuck is made by using mild steel and has a few
intercepts with brass. Magnetic mechanism is placed in the chuck. Several cutting processes were done with the
convectional chuck and the magnetic clamping on a different thickness of workpiece. Next, all the workpieces were tested
with several parameters on specimen and perform surface roughness testing to compare and finalize the effectiveness of the
magnetic clamping. From the obtained result, the use of the magnetic clamping produces much better result of surface
roughness on thin workpiece. Thus, using magnetic clamping as the clamping method for thin workpiece is much effective
in turning machine. |
