Machining Short Bars
All bars loaded from the charging tray should be at least 10" (254 mm) long, or a minimum of
2.25 times the distance from the end of the transfer tray to the start of the liner bore, whichever
is longer.
When machining short bars the cycle time required to load a new bar can be reduced by
changing the value of macro variable #3109 Length Of Longest Bar. To operate properly all of
the bars in the charging tray must be pushed against the side closest to the lathe. Add a buffer
distance to the length of the longest bar in the tray and enter that value in macro variable #3109
on the Bar Feeder Current Commands page. This will cause the bar load finger to rapid up to
the buffer position before slowing down to measure the bar length.
When loading short bars on the charging tray make sure the bar will be picked up by at least two
of the pick arms or the bar may not load properly.
