Automatic Bar Feeder for Sliding Headstock Machines
LNS AMERICA is introducing the LNS GT 342 automatic magazine bar feeder with a patented guiding system that allows higher spindle speeds, for greater throughput from sliding headstock turning machines.
The compact base design gives increased rigidity thus dampening the amount of vibration coming from the bar and improving the overall performance of the machine.
The new GT 342 enables machining of bars from 0.12 in. to 1.73 in. (3-44 mm) and can guide bars from 32 in. (800 mm) to 12-ft 6 in. (3810 mm) in length.
The new toolless channel design allows for partial changeovers of under 2 minutes, with full changeover times of less than 7 minutes. Once unlocked, the lower channels simply slide out while the upper channel remains the same for the entire bar diameter range.
