QUICK LOAD SERVO S3T
1. BAR MAGAZINE
Please read the safety instructions provided at the beginning of this manual before
handling the following devices.
1.1. Description
Placed on the side of the bar feeder, the bar magazine is 1000 mm deep and can house bars of different
lengths, from 300 mm to 1600 mm.
To facilitate movement of the bars on the magazine, the latter has been fitted with a grid onto which the
bars are placed. However, if certain bars (profiled bars, for example) have difficulty sliding, the gradient
can be increased using an axis located underneath the magazine. Conversely, if bars with a small
diameter start to pile up, the gradient can be decreased.
A protection grid prohibits access to the magazine during the automatic cycle. In manual mode, the grid,
which is fitted onto hinges, can be retracted to enable the operator to perform all the required
maintenance operations.
Under no circumstances may a rotating bar
protrude past the end of the lathe spindle.
The maximum authorized length that can be
loaded by the bar feeder is given by the
length of the lathe spindle. The bar should
never extend more than 3 times its diameter
beyond the lathe's clamping unit without
support. A limiter enables the maximum bar
length to be set on the magazine.
When they are on the magazine, the bars are held in place by stops arranged along an axis. The position
of the stops is set automatically when the loading diameter is entered into the bar feeder parameters.
