TECHNICAL INFORMATION
2.1. GENERAL BAR FEEDER DESCRIPTION
The
BOSS
automatic bar feeder is used in the machi-
ne-tool industry and in particular, for automatic lathe
feeding. It is particularly suitable for feeding fixed or sli-
ding headstock lathes, numerical control or cam la-
thes.
The working cycle is controlled by a control panel with
built-in PLC, which is able to dialogue with the lathe
control.
The main control digital push-button panel makes pro-
gramming easier. An additional push-button panel can
be detached to control the main functions without lea-
ving the lathe.
The bar feeder can be used to feed bars, pipes and va-
rious sections.
The guide channel is fully closed during machining; a
pump is provided to maintain a continuous oil flow insi-
de the channel, creating a hydrodynamic support ef-
fect; these characteristics allow the bar to rotate at a
high r.p.m. number, with no vibrations and no surface
damaging.
The use of a DC motor and of an electronically control-
led clutch make it possible to adjust the feeding speed
and thrust to ideal values at any time during the machi-
ning cycle.
Bar remnant ejection can be caused by bar-pusher fe-
eding or next bar feeding.
Bar feeder series BOSS are produced in the following
models:
MINI BOSS 325 CNC (standard version)
MINI BOSS 325r CNC (reversed version)
BOSS 542 CNC (standard version)
BOSS 542r CNC (reversed version)
To make the consultation of this manual easier, the na-
mes of the four models have been shortened as fol-
lows:
MINI BOSS CNC is shortened to
MINI BOSS
MINI BOSS 325r CNC is shortened to
MINI BOSSr
BOSS 542 CNC is shortened to
BOSS
BOSS 542r CNC is shortened to
BOSSr
The texts, tables and illustrations contained in this ma-
nual concern, unless otherwise stated, the standard
version (MINI BOSS and BOSS) with the lathe on the
operator’s right.
As for the reverse version (MINI BOSSr and BOSSr),
with the lathe on the operator’s left, do not forget that
the main parts are located on the opposite side, as
mentioned below.
