74 CHAPTER 6: OPERATION
QUICK LOAD SERVO 80 S2
5.2.1. Part setup
All handling, adjustments, and settings that need to be done on the bar feed system for executing a part
are included in the start-up. This section presents a brief explanation of the start-up parameters of the bar
feed system. The start-up settings for the bar feed system are explained through the use of practical
examples.
Loading of
Selection of parameters 2, 3, 4 :
· during the bar feed cycle, the bar feed system will try
several times (for a duration of 2 minutes) to
introduce the bar in the clamping device. The
accuracy of positioning is also provided by a
procedure designed specifically for profiled bars.
· the setting of the loading table and of the fingers
changes. This setting is automatically done by motor
M3.
As soon as parameter 1 is selected, the M3 motor
automatically repositions the table and the fingers in
standard position.
New stock diameter
It is important, at each change in start-up, that the
diameter of the new bars that the bar feed system
will load is updated in the parameters. Doing this
allows the adjustment of the height of the loading
table and of the settings of the bar magazine
loading fingers. These two settings are driven by
the remote control. The PLC can, therefore, take
this into account and adapt the torque of the
pushers. A greater precision in positioning can
thus be guaranteed. Moreover, small diameter
bars will not bend under the pressure of the
pusher
Round: outer diameter
Hexagonal / square: diameter across flats
Overall part length
In some cases (depending on
the configuration of the lathe),
the QUICK LOAD SERVO 65
is accurate enough (0.2mm)
to proceed with the bar feed
when the clamping device is
opened. Thus, the use of the
turret stopper is no longer
necessary, shortening
noticeably the loading time
and at the same time, freeing
a tool position on the turret.
The total length of the part (Lt)
includes the length of the piece to be machined (Lp) and the
thickness of the cut off tool (C).
