Bar feeder and bar supporter

When using a bar feeder or bar supporter, confirm excessive vibration is not generated as follows:

  • Close the operator door with a workpiece clamped in the chuck and set the spindle speed setting button to the lowest setting.
  • Rotate the spindle in manual mode and gradually increase the spindle speed to the maximum specified in the program.

If excessive vibration is generated, perform the following countermeasures.

  • Correct the bend.
  • Change the maximum spindle speed used in the program to a speed that does not cause vibration of the machine body or the bar feeder.
  • Adjust the alignment of the machine and bar feeder.
  • Check that appropriate guide bushes are used in the spindle through-hole.

If the vibration cannot be eliminated by performing the countermeasures listed above, contact the DynamiTech Service Department.
