The FMB Turbo 5-65 bar feeder is a robust, automatic loading system engineered to maximize productivity on your machine tools, handling a wide range of bar diameters from 5 mm up to 65 mm. It is available in 6-foot or 12-foot configurations, with a maximum bar length of 3800 mm (12 feet 5 inches). The feeder’s core strength lies in its ability to support optimal cutting conditions even at high RPMs, achieved through its specialized oil-filled guide channel. This channel dampens vibration and keeps the bar stock perfectly centered during rotation.

Precision feeding is managed by a high-precision linear drive powered by a Rexroth Servo Motor, providing a feed force of up to 157 lbs and utilizing a synchronous toothed belt drive for accurate tolerances. The machine’s efficiency is boosted by user-friendly features like the Quick Change Guide Channel set, which can be swapped out in about 10 minutes, and a “Pin-on” collet feature for changes in less than 2 minutes. The operation is controlled via an 8.4-inch Touch control panel with the ERGOlogic user interface, featuring a Guided Set-up function for quick learning and comprehensive storage. The swing-out bar pusher system also helps to reduce the total machine footprint.
