Bar Feeder for Small Diameter Bar Stock



The LNS Express 220 S2 automatic, magazine bar feeder can load 12' long bars with diameters from 2 mm to 20 mm and, with bar preparation, up to 26 mm to accommodate 20 mm machines with 26 mm bar capacity.

The enhanced bar feeder uses a simple loading assistance design for small diameter bars with a proprietary, automatic loading mechanism and bar selection system to precisely and consistently load small bars, especially in the 2 mm to 4 mm diameter range.

Built on the Express 332 S2's rigid platform, Express 220 S2 provides enhanced vibration damping, quick changeovers and a variety of exclusive features that are designed to improve productivity and reduce production costs, including:

  • Standard high-capacity 240 mm wide magazine tray and optional extended capacity magazine tray for unattended and lights-out production
  • Patented high-speed headstock synchronization system that meets the requirements of today's sliding headstock machines
  • Fully automatic 6" hydrostatic front stabilizer that can eliminate residual vibration between the bar feeder and the lathe
  • A prompting hand-held HMI with touchscreen for easier operation
  • The latest servo drive and PLC technologies
  • Ethernet readiness with a 500 parts library that can reduce changeover time and material waste
  • Optional proprietary retraction system that helps to facilitate easier maintenance and provides the ability to perform non-guide bushing applications.
