We have a bar feeder on a CNC lathe utilizing a chuck. We have damage 2 draw tubes in the last year and the manufacture is telling us that this is due to a build up of chips in the chuck. Since this is a bar feed I can not clean these chips out after every part as we do on all of our other machines so what can we do. The chuck manufacturer told me to put a rubber stop (with a hole for the material) into the through hole but how do I hole it in. What have others done?
