Type 576 Self-centering steady rests SLZ - oil or air operated
With mounted cylinder
Application range
To more efficient turning of slender shafts
The
cam and lever system has been optimized in comparison to known
solutions and permits the three rollers performing the centering and
supporting function to be applied to the workpiece almost
symmetrically with a spacing of 3 x 120°.
This feature together with
an innovative internal compensating system which compensates for
the displacement of the workpiece center occurring under changing
pressures in conventional steady rests accounts for the unusually high
centering accurancy throughout the working range.
Depending on requirements and proposed use, the steady rest is available with a stroke monitor or a safety device only.
Technical features
high repeating accurancy
high stiffness
small dimensions
air purge to prevent dirt penetration
stroke control and central lubrication
Customer advantages
optimal support of slender work (shafts) on lathes
easy mounting
for central lubrication only one connection is necessary
the
proportioning units for the rollers are integrated in the body of the
rest and assure sufficent greasing in the respective greasing interval
various
mounting options permit steady rests to be usedfor turning
outsidediameters, facing, centering, drilling, internal machining,
recessing, parting-off, copy turning etc., both as fixed steady rests
and following rests, in any desired angular positioning relative to the
cutting tool
