Edge Technologies’ FMB Turbo RS 3-38 bar feeder features the company’s Revolutionary Sliding (RS) technology, which streamlines CNC Swiss lathe automation.
The FMB Turbo RS 3-38 builds on Edge Technologies’ flagship model for sliding headstock CNC lathes, introducing what the company says is a first-of-its-kind innovation: full support of the bar pusher and stock from inside the bar feeder all the way into the lathe spindle. This enhances precision, reduces vibration and maximizes performance in high-volume production environments.
