Guidance and thrust device for bar semi-finished material in turn working machine, has hollow main spindle, which has holding fixture at an end, and feed unit and banking unit

Simple SummaryContent extracted from patent full text and abstract with AI.

This invention relates to a guidance and thrust device specifically designed for bar semi-finished materials used in turning machines. It features a hollow main spindle with a holding fixture, along with a feed unit and a banking unit that can be adjusted between rest and working positions. The device includes guide bushes at both the front and rear of the bar to enhance the handling and positioning of semi-finished bars during machining operations.

Use CasesContent extracted from patent full text and abstract with AI.

• Automatic or CNC turning machines for shaping metal bars
• High-precision machining of long, slender bar stock
• Production lines requiring frequent bar changes or high-speed feed of semi-finished material
• Machining operations in automotive, aerospace, or industrial equipment manufacturing
• Retrofitting existing turning machines to handle semi-finished bar material more efficiently

BenefitsContent extracted from patent full text and abstract with AI.

• Improved alignment and stability of bar stock during turning processes, reducing vibration and increasing machining accuracy
• Enhanced automation for feeding and positioning bars, resulting in higher throughput and reduced manual intervention
• Adjustable feed and banking units allow for flexibility with different bar sizes and machining needs
• Reduced material waste and tool wear due to improved handling of semi-finished bars
• Potential for safer operation by securing the bar more effectively throughout the machining process

Patent Abstract

The guidance and thrust device has a hollow main spindle (3), which has a holding fixture (8) at an end. A feed unit (9) and a banking unit (10) are adjustable from a rest situation into a work situation on a turning center. A guide bush (2) is provided in front of the main spindle adjustable for the bar semi-finished material. The banking unit has a rear guide bush (12) for a rear end of the bar semi-finished material. An independent claim is also included for a method for leading and putting a forward bar semi-finished material in a hollow main spindle.
