  Lathe Collets   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Collets can generally be turned at a higher RPM than a standard chuck because the collets are lighter and smaller, having less weight on the spindle.
Before mounting the collet on the lathe, it is necessary to remove the chuck and attach the collet drawbar.
A home-made collet can be made using a split- bushing method (shown on the right) where a cylinder of steel is bored or reamed in the 3-jaw chuck to the exact size of the work piece.

 Collet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A collet is a holding device that forms a collar around the object to be held and exerts a strong clamping force on the object when it is tightened.
Collets generally have a narrow clamping range which means a large number are required to hold a given range of materials, unlike a chuck that will generally cover the full range that the machine is designed for.
This constriction exerts considerable force onto the shank of the workpiece (drill) that is being held in the collet.

 Feature - When To Use A Collet Chuck
The collet chuck is an alternate workholding device that, like the jaw chuck, also uses mechanical force to hold the part being turned.
While a collet chuck lacks the capacity for the same wide range of workpiece sizes that a jaw chuck can accommodate, it offers advantages related to speed, accuracy and productivity that may be crucial for certain jobs.
A collet chuck tends to be the better choice for turning at particularly high levels of spindle rpm.

 Dead length collet chuck holder - Patent 5480164
A collet chuck holder is described in which a standard collet is threaded into a retaining ring which is firmly fastened to the inside of a chuck body.
An improved dead length collet chuck holder as described in claim 1 in which another part of the improvement is comprised of a hollow cylinder threaded at both ends to firmly couple the push tube to said closing sleeve through said actuator thereby further increasing the rigidity of the assembly.
Although collet chucks are universally employed because of their speed and precision, they have the disadvantage of being dependent on a draw tube which pulls the collet jaws into a conically tapered, surrounding cylinder.

 Collet
Captain John Abraham Collet may well be deemed the villian of this phase of the story, for, though possessing many natural gifts, [331] he was domineering and unprincipled and has received little commendation from either party in the struggle.
The attacking force numbered five hundred; for defence Collet had twenty-five men, reduced by desertion to less than half that number, of whom only three or four were to be depended on.
Though Martin did not believe, and probably with reason, the report that Collet was harboring and arming negroes at the fort and inciting them to insurrection, he was convinced that Collet was the wrong man for the place and hoped that he would never return to the colony.

 Collets for Machining   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
There are so many families and styles of collets that trying to cover them all would be impossible, just including most of the common collets is still a hit and miss affair.
The collet is pulled or pushed into a tube with a chamferred or beveled mouth which forces the head of the collet to collapse around the work or tool.
DA collet chucks are not designed for milling, as excessive chuck nut tightening may crack the thread area of the chuck.

 Quick disconnect collet assembly - Patent 4661029
The collet tube can be quickly slipped over the collet, and located at a predetermined axial position thereon, and the two components can be rotated relative to one another to cause the threads to be moved into engagement with each other.
More particularly, the operating environment of collet and collet tube assemblies requires that care be taken to insure that mating threads between collet tube and collet members are not stripped by virtue of overtorquing.
For purposes of proper securement of the tube 12 on the collet, the tube is inserted over the collet until the extremity 34 of the tube abuts the shoulder 22 of the flange 20 of the collet.

 Metlfax - Sept 2000 - A look at the ER collet system's benefits
This collet consists of three main parts: the shell of the collet, the spring, and the insert that holds the tap.
The collet length is important because the farther the distance from the end of the spindle to the end of the tool, the less accurate the cutting tool.
With a standard ER collet nut the friction is high between the 30š nose taper on the collet and the taper on the nut; it tends to create friction between the two tapers and may eliminate an extra 1Ž4 or 1Ž2 turn on the collet nut.

 Centaur Precision Tools-collets,toolholding systems, tapping systems,collet chucks, vdi toolholders, umatic
The collet must be installed into the nut (see assembly instructions) before engagement with the collet chuck to ensure the collet is seated into the 30 degree concave angle of the nut.
Putting the collet into the chuck and then installing the nut will result in a condition that the eccentric ring of nut will engage only one side of the collet and produce poor results such as runout and drastically reduced holding strength.
Collets can be removed from the clamping nut by holding the small end of the collet and tilting the collet angularly until it is removed from the nut.

 (WO/1991/001202) COLLET TOOL   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
To remove a collet from a retainer (14), the free end of the collet is inserted into the collet receiving section (44) and the sleeve (40) is pressed onto the collet (12) causing the collet (12) to be radially compressed and released from its associated retainer (14).
To then eject the collet (12) from the sleeve, the plunger (50) is moved into engagement with the collet (12) and the collet (12) is pushed from the sleeve (40).
Then, with the tool being free of any collet (12), another collet may be readied for insertion into a retainer (14) by inserting the rear portion of the collet (12) into the collet receiving section (44).
