The ELITE ZERO bar feeder from IEMCA is a specialized- high-precision solution developed specifically to meet the rigorous demands of the watch, micromechanics, and medical industries. It is expertly designed to process the smallest ultra-thin bars, supporting diameters from 0.3 mm up to 3 mm, ensuring smooth and perfect processing through all work phases. Its core capability is to prevent the bending of ultra-thin material while maintaining an extremely high output rate, capable of reaching the maximum speed allowed by the lathe.

This unit is compatible with sliding headstock lathes and utilizes a Walking Beam magazine capable of holding a maximum of 37 bars. The performance is characterized by impressive speed metrics- including a rapid feed rate of 800 mm/sec and an even faster return speed of 1-200 mm/sec, with a quick bar changeover time of less than 32 seconds. The ELITE ZERO is a forward-looking machine- certified as INDUSTRY 4.0 compliant, which means it is equipped with advanced sensors and connectivity features for seamless integration into modern manufacturing ecosystems. The design focuses on robust characteristics for precision work- including a very short remnant length capability (80 to 280 mm) and an optional- fully sensor-equipped high-pressure coolant system.
