The improper use of machine tools and their accessories can result in serious injury. Before using this tool, thoroughly read the instructions and make sure you understand its proper and safe use.
Always wear safety glasses when operating machine tools.
We’ve separated the Bar Feeder into two components to better support customers who want to build their own custom bar feeder system.
Beyond its use in a bar feeder setup, this assembly can also function as a programmable collet control for opening and closing the collet. You can use M10 and M11 G-code commands to close and open the chuck, respectively.
The Pneumatic Bar Feeder Activation Cylinder Assembly works with our machine and 3C lever collet closer to pneumatically open and close the collet. Click the “Instructions” tab above to download setup documentation.
NOTE: This system is designed for use with the MASSO Touch controller featuring the G3 board. The older G2 board is not compatible with the required MASSO relay module. If you are using a control system other than the MASSO Touch, please consult your controller manufacturer for wiring diagrams and compatibility. Most modern CNC controllers are designed to send relay signals to control external devices.
