Bar device efficiently unloads components that are too long to be caught in standard parts catchers, but require removal through the bore of the secondary spindle in twin spindle CNC lathes.
And the factors behind these demands vary from query to query.
In fact, many prospective customers have found that no other company can provide the same standard of solutions for all types of applications from feeding through to finishing.
These applications have meant that Hydrafeed view themselves as more than just Barfeed Suppliers.
This is further endorsed when taking in to account Hydrafeed's subsidiary product range that includes the Conemaster Bar Chamfering Machine, Flexiband Abrasive Belt Machines, Vanco Barreling Machines, and Acrogrip Workholding Equipment.
Additionally, Hydrafeed's subcontract facilities also enable the firm to offer their customer's even more solutions to their application headaches.
Many of these applications can be non standard, and involve the use of equipment that must be both designed from new, and tested to suit the application for which they have been manufactured.
Hydrafeed's Prototype Division oversees all such projects, utilizing both our own unique team of design engineers, as well as working alongside design companies who specialize in many fields of prototype work from robotics through to electronics.
Each of these projects is built to the complete specification of the customer, confirms to all required tests and standards, and is built, as ever, to the highest quality that is expected from this unique firm.
