Heavy Stock? No problem.
The emergence of the DX Bar Stock ServoFeed has impacted manufacturers working with heavy bar stock by automating the bar feeding process for a variety of applications.

The DX Bar Stock ServoFeed provides all of the features of the standard DX ServoFeed plus:
	Heavy-duty pneumatic grippers
	User-friendly ServoFeed console with operator controls features Dynamic Feeds' proprietary bar stock software. Includes all DX console features with a totalizing counter and countdown function
	End-of-stock detector which enables the feed to calculate the number of exact remaining increments per bar
	Material guides prevent overlap and misalignment of bar stock

The DX Bar Stock ServoFeed provides all of the benefits of the standard DX ServoFeed plus:
	Specially designed guides and grippers allow the bar feed to accommodate flat, round or profile shaped bars
	Can be set up to run a sequence of feed lengths into a press, saw, drill, miter cutter, etc.
	Reduces costly scrap by calculating optimum bar stock usage
	Reduces die wear by positioning the end of the bar correctly in the die every time
	Detects parameter errors immediately and stops the press
	Provides optimized, uniform acceleration and deceleration at each end of travel for a faster and more accurate stroke
	Offers repeatable performance with accuracy up to +/- .005"
	Can be integrated with other systems for die protection, parts ejection and other electronic pneumatic systems

Easy To Operate
The DX Bar Feed does not require any computer training to set up. The operator can retrieve a stored part parameter from memory or enter four parameters:

1. Speed Rate
2. Feed Length
3. Die Distance
4. Push Out Distance

Once parameters are entered, the operator inserts the first bar into the die and starts the press in automatic mode. When the end of the bar is sensed by the end-of-stock detector, the press is automatically top-stopped and the feed heads are positioned to receive the next bar. The operator places the next bar in position and the press is restarted. Tail scrap length is automatically calculated and pushed through the die when the new bar is placed into initial position.

Completely programmable, the DX automated bar feed uses a heavy duty gripping system, ball screw and servo motor for maximum torque and pulling power. Feeds stock up to 600 lb.
