The history of the bar puller begins with the introduction of the NC/CNC lathes in around 1980. At this time lathes were changed to permit inexpensive and economical production of small or medium-sized batches. The bar puller serves to draw bars into the lathe without operators having to feed the machine with material each time it is required.
Guide Pillar & Guide Bush : Used for alignment between top and bottom halves of the press tools. Bottom plate:It is used to hold bottom half of the press tool with press slide. Stripper plate: it is used to strip off the component from punches. Strip guides: It is used to guide the strip into the press tool to perform the operation. Press tool
A bar feeder feeds a single piece of bar stock into the cutting machine. As each part is machined, the cutting tool creates a final cut to separate the part from the bar stock, and the feeder continues to feed the bar for the next part, allowing for continual operation of the machine.
CNC lathes and screw machines have accessories called "bar feeders", which hold, guide, and feed the bar as commanded by the CNC control. More advanced machines may have a "bar loader" which holds multiple bars and feeds them one at a time into the bar feeder. Bar loaders are like magazines for part blanks (or pallets for milling work) in that ...
In engineering, a dog is a tool or part of a tool, such as a pawl, that prevents or imparts movement through physical engagement. [1] It may hold another object in place by blocking it, clamping it, or otherwise obstructing its movement.
A center finder is a tool used to align the machining center to a precision location on a work piece. Often these locations might be marked using a layout method (coating the surface with layout stain and scribing a precise location with the intersection of the two lines identifying the position to be machined, etc.
The most common configuration is a tool rack on the side of the press brakes, with a shuttle picking up tools and positioning them where needed. This reduces physical strain on the operator and increases overall productivity. An Automatic Tool Changer for press brakes, used to set up, rearrange, and remove punches and dies.
A forming press, commonly shortened to press, is a machine tool that changes the shape of a work-piece by the application of pressure. [1] The operator of a forming press is known as a press-tool setter, often shortened to tool-setter. Presses can be classified according to their mechanism: hydraulic, mechanical, pneumatic;
