At the risk if going a little off topic I want to be sure I understand the capabilities of the TL machines. Haas offers a pneumatic collet closer with a foot pedal for the TL machines made by Royal. Royal also offers a bar puller as well as a bar puller/cut off combined. The collet closer feeds through the spindle bore and is hollow. If I cut bar stock to lengths no longer than the length of the collet closer tube ( and install properly sized spindle liners) can I use the bar puller to automatically advance the bar?
I know this is doable with pheumatic chucks and maybe I would be better off with one of these when utilizing a puller? I liked the looks of the collet chuck in case I crash during the learning process it would not be into spinning jaws. |
