| Pete is right. There are several tubes (at least on the ones that I'm familiar with) that are set up like a 6 gun. Spin it around to the one that you want, load your bar in, run it through your chuck and hit the switch. After you machine a part and cut it off, you bring a stop of some sort up to the position that you wish to have your stock advance to, open the chuck, and the oil in the feeder pushes it out to meet it. This one is a little different, but that's the basic concept of most hydraulic bar feeders that I've been around.
Clear as mud?
Got a pretty nice LNS Hydrobar in storage collecting dust, pretty much the same animal, just a different brand. | |
