Using the Loader
Set the
Adjustable Home Stop
so that the pusher clears the bar or part when the shuttle is firmly against the stop.
The
Home sensor
must light when shuttle is firmly against the stop.
The
In Place sensor
is used in “part” and “stop” modes; it must light when part is at either front or rear stop.
The
Eject sensor
must light when the shuttle is at far right on rodless cylinder.
The
Cover Interlock Bypass
keyswitch (on PLC cabinet) allows testing setup with cover open.
Diameter change-over.
For best results, liner id and pusher od should be appropriate for the part or bar od. To
change liners, remove pushrod from shuttle plate (three 6-32 SHCS), then loosen the tray-lock knob, and remove mi-
crometer lock knob. Swing entire tray assembly up and out of the way to clear flange on liner. Liner is held in place
with o-rings; it can take some effort to remove it. Liners come with three o-rings; remove one closest for easier removal.
To put the bar or part on center of the spindle, loosen steel tray lock knob and micrometer lock knob (lower knob).
Slide part by hand from vee into liner, moving tray up or down with micrometer adjust until part slides smoothly.
The pivot brackets are held with tee-nuts, and can be moved if fine-tuning for very small part diameters is necessary.
Plastic knurled knobs on each side of tray assembly lock the “knee” of the guide channel “vee” at correct distance
for different diameter bars. Loosen knee adjustment knobs at each side of tray to adjust knife-to-vee distance for new
size bar. Manually cycle knife to insure smooth delivery of the bar.
For best results, use push-rod / pusher assembly that has pusher about same diameter as your stock. Matching
pusher to stock insures that pusher follows stock in vee and into liner properly.
