EVS Toolroom Lathes

Chuck & Faceplate Mounting

This lathe is shipped with the 3-jaw chuck installed. This is a scroll-type chuck, meaning that all three jaws move in unison when adjusted.

The included 4-jaw chuck features independent jaws, which are used for square or unevenly- shaped stock, and to mount work that needs to be adjusted to near "0" total indicated runout.

If neither chuck can hold your workpiece, the cast-iron faceplate has slots for T-bolts that hold standard or custom clamping hardware. With the correct clamping hardware, this faceplate will hold non-cylindrical parts.

The chucks and faceplate have a D-6 camlock mount. A chuck key is used to turn the locking cams (Figure 40) to secure/release the chuck/ faceplate.
