Montalvo, international specialists in web tension control, confirms its newest product offering – Axial Activated Core Chucks. As part of their ‘Defender Series Core Chucks,’ the Axial Activated Core Chuck is designed for shaft-less unwinding and rewinding applications requiring maximum roll/core gripping and/or utilizing floor pick up. These Core Chucks, sometimes referred to as lug chucks, are cost effective, rugged, and durable – capable of withstanding even the dustiest environments while being simple to utilize. An exclusive ‘safe lock’ model expands the capabilities of the AA core chucks even further by resolving any potential risk of the core not fully tightening and ensuring the roll is always perfectly concentric. Cores are engaged as a result of radial lug expansion as the core is loaded into the chuck, ensuring maximum grip.
Additional features include: Rapid expansion jaws, Dual core models and an E-Flange™ Option – eliminating operator interaction in removing cores while making core ejection fast and easy – reducing risk of jammed cores.
