Turbo 2-20 Bar Feeder
The FMB Turbo 2-20, available in either 6′ or 12′ configuration, is an automatic bar feeder for processing bars in the diameter range of 2–20 mm in lengths from 6’ to 14’ on CNC lathes. Equipped with a Swiss type headstock synchronization device, peck drilling and threading on small diameter bars is simple and done with high tolerances.
Features: Turbo 2-20
- Bar diameter capacity: 2mm to 23mm (0.078” to 0.905”)
- Automatic loading magazine – 7 linear inches of rack capacity
- Polyurethane guide channel system – noise & vibration dampening
- Hydrodynamic support via high-volume oil flow into channels
- Double pusher, space-saving design
- Bearing block steady rest – super rigid design mounted to base of the machine to provide maximum support of bar stock and pusher
- Separate floor-mounted electric cabinet isolates electronics from vibration
- (1) Guide channel set to be chosen by customer. Several sizes to choose from, each handling a specific stock range. See table above (spindle liner required if channel set is not lathe’s max capacity)
- (1) Universal telescoping front nose and (1) nylon nose I.D. liner specific to pusher
- (1) O.D. bar stock collet to be chosen by customer (specific collet needed for each stock diameter)
- Swiss headstock synchronization device
- Automatic remnant retraction, self-centering gripper
- Custom lathe cable and interface plugs
- Polyurethane bushing blocks (2 pieces)
- Spindle tube nose assembly – available in 7mm, 10mm
