2. DATA OF TECHNIQUE
2.1 Introduction of the bar feeder
The V-65E/LE-A is designed for full automatic lathe to auto feeds material, the bar
feeder is suitable for digital control sliding headstock lathe and fixed headstock
lathe. The program of the P.L.C system can control the bar feeder running with the
lathe at the same time. Operator can set parameters by the interface of man
machine directly.
The remote control box is easily to be operated.
The bar feeder can feed circular material and any other forms of material. While
the lathe is running, the guide channel is closed completely; meanwhile, the
lubricating oil is poured into the guide channel. Therefore, noise and shake can be
reduced while the material is rotated in high speed.
Furthermore, the lubricating oil also can reduce the temperature resulted from
friction so the surface of material can't be damaged. The remnant material will be
pushed out off the guide channel by the push bar or the next material.
The instructions and legends of the manual are edited according to the operator
stands at the left side of the lathe.

3.4 Installation area
In order to fix the feeder securely, the floor must be flat and firm.
According to the operation of the feeder to reserve a suitable area in advance.
Area：(D-operator area)，(E-supply area)，The space must be enough to avoid the
feeder caused crashed by the operator.
The area of installation needs to have suitable lighting, outlet and compressed air
joint.
The feeder can’t adapt to explosive surrounding.

4.1 Bar feeder －
－－
－Installation
Before installing the bar feeder, the spindle of the lathe must be horizontal and the
Lathe is fixed on the ground strongly.
4.2 Adjustment of height
4.2.1 Disengage the screw（1）.
4.2.2 Adjust the screw（2）and shift from up to down.Adjust the height to a straight line
between the center of the bar feeder and the center of the lathe.

4. INSTALLATION V-65E-A

4.3 Initial position
4.3.1 Distance between V-65E/LE-A and CNC-lathe
In order to use the automatic bar feeder in the best possible way you should see to
it that the distance between the CNC-lathe and the bar feeder is not too short!!
You may; however, load only bars whose length equals the spindle length of the
CNC- lathe. The bar stock has to be fed completely into the lathe spindle.
The bar feeder, however, must not be too far from the CNC-lathe.
The Max distance between CNC-lathe and bar feeder can be seen from the
following drawing.
If 1250mm should not be enough, you have to install a V-65LE-A to replace
V-65E-A.
! IMPORTANT ! Be careful that – if several chucking devices are available-the max.
Distance will never be exceeded.

V-65E-A 1600mm Max.1250mm
V-65LE-A 1900mm Max.1550mm

4.4 Directional adjusting
! IMPORTANT !
During directional adjusting the push bar must not touch the lathe spindle!!
The height must have been adjusted roughly beforehand and has to be readjusted if
necessary.
The direction has to be adjusted rather exactly as the adjusting range for precision
adjusting is limited.
Adjusting: You should be able to see through the spindle from the chuck and move the
push bar forwards.
If the push bar does not go through the middle of the spindle, go back to final position “ –Z ”
and adjust the bar feeder afterwards. Then check the direction of the push bar and repeat
checking until the push bar is adjusted exactly.

4.7.4 Spindle liners
4.7.4.1 How to select correct spindle liners：
The inner diameter of the spindle has to be adjusted to the outer diameter of the
bar stock. According to our experience, the diameter of spindle of blank bar stock
should be bigger by 3mm to 5mm than the diameter of bar stock.
Even black bar stock can be machined by spindle liners.
4.7.4.2 How to make two kinds of spindle liners:
1 Iron tube：
：：
：Choose tubes which internal diameter is bigger by 3mm to 5mm
than the material to make.
2 PE：Choose PE or Teflon to make according to the following method.
1. Tube：The thickness of the tube is 2mm to 3mm
2. Liners：Internal diameter of the lines should be bigger by 3mm to 5mm than the
material.
3. Stop ring：In order to fasten the liners, the stop ring would be accorded with the
inter diameter of the spindle to can make in the form of ladder.
4. When feeding different sizes of material, exchange the liners and stop ring.
※ The tube and the diameter of the liners must be smaller by 3mm to 5mm than
the inter diameter of the spindle which prevent the tube was expanded.
