Abstract
A chuck assembly for holding a reel is provided. The chuck assembly includes a tubular wall defining a central hole therethrough and extending along a longitudinal axis. The chuck assembly includes a flange member that is coupled to a first end portion of the tubular wall. The chuck assembly includes first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth ball roller assemblies that are coupled to the tubular wall. The chuck assembly further includes first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth gripper assemblies that are coupled to the tubular wall. The second ball roller assembly is spaced 60 degrees apart from the first ball roller assembly relative to the longitudinal axis and is disposed between the first and second gripper assemblies.
