MicroCentric 1-800-573-1139 Tapered QC Locating Buttons QC Precision Change Jaw Locating System Patented precision change jaw locating system reduces setup time by maintaining .0002” (0.005mm) runout after changing top jaws. MicroCentric’s QC system saves valuable setup time by eliminating the remachining of top jaws or indicating in the chuck in order to maintain close workpiece concentricity. PPC chucks are qualified so jaws can be changed between chucks and maintain .0008” (0.02mm) TIR runout. Accuracy to .0001” (0.002mm) TIR QC System Accuracies • .0002" (0.005mm) TIR max runout when top...
