Automated short bar feeder

The Quick Load Servo 65 bar feed from LNS America, Inc. automatically loads 1/4-in. to 2-5/8-in. dia. short bars up to 51 in. in length. To perform start-ups and changeovers, bar diameter, bar profile, and workpiece length are entered at the control keypad—the Servo 65 then makes the adjustments automatically. The Soft Touch bar positioning system uses servo motor controls to reduce turret crashes. (www.LNSamerica.com)
