2.3 SAFETY DEVICES
The figure indicates the position of the devices on the bar feeder.
A- Interlocked sliding guard: is associated with an interlock device (microswitch A1). At the
opening of the guard, in emergency condition, all the bar feeder and lathe functions stop. At
the closing of the guard it is possible to start the operating cycle again.
This one is endowed with a porthole allowing the visual inspection of the bar handling main
components.
B- Emergency push button: if started, each component of the bar feeder and of the lathe
immediately stops. After having normalised the operating conditions it is required to release
the button, with a voluntary action, in order to authorise again the bar feeder and lathe
setting into operation.
C- Drive fixed guard: prevents the access to the components in motion.
