Diamond 20CS Factory Spy Video - Long Part

[gredangeo]

I do not understand how tiny chip fragments don't mess up the spindle as it slides. The audacity in this design concept amazes me how it took off.

boss: you wanna do what?

employee: no no no, hear me out .

Still it works somehow. o_O

the soundtrack is as if its from red alert

[rivercarper01]

How does it feed out the bar and hold onto it at the same time?

[MrMeatBullet]

@rivercarper01 The work peice is actually held from an internal headstock on a chuck. The piece it slides through is basically a collet keeping the work peice stable.

[guitarzan1283]

@rivercarper01 the collet you see it riding in is merely a carbide lined guide bushing and the main spindle/chuck is located behind that it moves in and out and spins the material while the guide bushing only stabilizes the part

No a very long part. We have run parts 11 ft. long.

Can You

[BLAVA411]

@digtos  you have a swiss that can run 11 ft parts wow! i wanna see this

[digtos]

@BLAVA411 A Swiss Style Lathe with a Pick Off Spindle. Can run a part just shorter then the full lenth of the bar of stock. Standard 12 Ft. Bar Stock. What kind of machines do you run. What part of the planet are you living.

[digtos]

I have had the opportunity to run these Cincom's R04, R07, A16, A20, A220, A32, L316-20, L520, Type 7 & 8, L720 Type 8 & 9, L425-32, M20, M220-32, M320-32, M320Y-32, L632, C32, C16, L20E, K16, K16E.
