The gang tool configuration eliminates turret indexing entirely. With tools preset in parallel along the X-axis, the only motion between operations is X/Z axis positioning — typically under 2 seconds. For high-volume parts with 3–6 operations, this represents a significant throughput advantage over 6–12 second turret change times.
The standard DF-21 servo bus CNC system uses ISO G-code with an industrial touchscreen interface. Macro variables, subprograms, and probing cycles are all standard. Optional conversational programming available. Ethernet port enables remote access and program transfer.
The spindle bore is φ48mm, comfortably accommodating bars up to 40mm diameter. The standard 6-inch pneumatic chuck handles workpieces up to 150mm O.D. on the slide. For larger workpieces, chuck configuration is customized per drawing.
Yes. The HCL300A has a standard M-code interface for bar feeders. Compatible with LNS, IEMCA, and most ISO-standard servo bar feeders. When equipped, the system supports fully unattended production runs with end-of-bar detection and auto-index.
