Adding an automatic bar feeder to a CNC turning center is one way to boost productivity and free up an operator. On a milling machine, loading and unloading workpieces with an automated part transfer device fed by a carrousel can have the same benefits. So it stands to reason that a shop with a turn-mill machine might consider both options. This means equipping it with a bar feeder and a parts carrousel. That’s exactly what EWS Weigele GmbH & Co. did with its G250 turn-mill machine from Index Corp. (Germany and Noblesville, Indiana). EWS manufactures static and driven tools for lathes and turn-mill machines (distributed in the United States by ITI Tooling, Ramsey, New Jersey). The company’s main factory is in Uhingen, Germany, not far from Esslingen, the city that is home to Index’s corporate offices and one of its production facilities. Being neighbors in the region around Stuttgart in southwest Germany is not the only connection between EWS and this machine tool builder. Products & Services
Lathes and turning centers cut a rotating part with a stationary cutting tool. The tool moves parallel and perpendicular to the workpiece axis to provide the desired finished shape.
