2.2. Mounting limiters
The magazine of the Quick Load Servo III MI bar feed system can simultaneously accept bars of various
lengths, from 130 mm to 1,600 mm.
The maximum length (max. L.) The
length
determines the length of bar stock
that may be loaded. It is strictly
prohibited to run a bar that extends
past the rear of the lathe spindle.
The bar may not extend more than
three times its diameter beyond the
front of the lathe clamping device
without support.
•
The bars are kept in place by two limiters. The first one
stationary (A), is located to the front, and is an integral
part of the loading table. The second one (B), movable,
is located on the table and fastened with screws.
•
Measure the length of the spindle from the rear to the
front face of the clamping device.
•
Lift the protection grid. Undo the lock screws holding the
rear limiter in place.
•
Place the limiter at the measured distance (L.max.) by
measuring from the front limiter. Tighten the lock screws.
•
Apply the self-adhesive marker on the loading table.
This marker will serve, in the future, to set the position of
the limiter without having to measure the length of the
spindle each time.
•
This allows the loading pusher to advance at great speed up to the rear limiter, and then to slow
down to avoid a collision at the time it comes into contact with the bar. Moreover, if the bar loaded is
too long, the bar feed system notices it when measuring it and stops the loading cycle.
Input the maximum length (L.max.) in the Service parameters. Only LNS or its
representative is allowed to change this value in the parameter.
