Precise, Rigid Bar Feeder Offers 20-Second Bar Change Times
PMTS 2017: Work can be done on the bar feeder with maximum reliability on the smallest bars available because of the accurate selection device and the smooth sliding trolley with ball bearings mounted on the linear guide, which guarantees maximum accuracy.
The Elite 220 Superfast is an automatic high-performance bar feeder for bars with diameters between 2 – 20 mm (0.07 – 0.78”), ideal for applications on sliding headstock lathes for bar lengths from 450 – 3,700 mm (17.71 – 145.88”). The Elite is simple to use, precise and incredibly fast, the company says.
Work can be done on the bar feeder with maximum reliability on the smallest bars available because of the accurate selection device and the smooth sliding trolley with ball bearings mounted on the linear guide, which guarantees maximum accuracy.
It is possible to reach high spindle speeds (up to 20,000 rpm) without vibration, thanks to the high rigidity of the bar feeder, the circular polyurethane guide channels, and the anti-vibration bushing device that guarantees the maximum support to the rotating bar. Bar change times have been reduced to 20 seconds.
