Long Bar Feeder

How to Choose the Suitable Long Bar Feeder?

When selecting a long bar feeder, consider the following:

• Bar Length and Size: Ensure the feeder can accommodate the length and diameter of the bars you're working with.
• Space: Long feeders require more space. Assess your facility to determine if a long feeder fits.
• Compatibility: Ensure that the interface between the bar feeder and your turning solutions is compatible.

Important Precautions

While long bar feeders offer numerous benefits, there are critical considerations to ensure safe and optimal operation:

• Space Requirements: Long bar feeders require more floor space, plus additional space for maneuvering around them. This can be a crucial factor for machine shops with limited space.
• Bar Stock Quality: If long bar stock causes vibrations (bar whip) during machining, impacting the accuracy (tolerance) and surface quality (finish) of your parts. An advanced anti-vibration design helps to avoid problems.
