Soft jaws are a common solution for holding parts that would be difficult to fixture during machining with standard, flat vise jaws. Soft jaws, which are typically milled from aluminium or steel, can be 3D printed with continuous fibre reinforcement.
On CNC lathes, soft jaws are used to clamp pre-machined components for further machining to the desired accuracy. These are made of mild steel or En24, En36, and En8 to ensure a long service life. Soft jaws on three-jaw chucks make jaw placement easier. The fine serrations on the master Hardness of jaws and top tooling of most three-jaw chucks used on turning centres must be properly aligned when the top tooling is mounted to the chuck. To turn the desired dia of jobs without damaging the soft material's outer dia, these soft jaws are clamped on master jaws via serrations and clamping bolts. To maintain accuracy, these jaws are turned intermittently to the desired dia of the job to be clamped. For the time being the items listed above are widely used in Bearing turning Industries, etc., and the demand is increasing.
