EMO Hannover: new LNS bar feeders

June 2011

At the machine tool world exhibition EMO in Hannover from 19 to 24 September 2011, the LNS Group will introduce innovative bar feeders to the market. The successor of the Express 332 series will combine the best elements of the Sprint and Express series and convince with improved rigidity and flexibility.

"We redesigned the Express 332 from the ground up, but kept its philosophy and all the features that made this bar feeder so successful", says Carlos Muniz, LNS Global Product Manager Bar Feed (picture, the version to be replaced). Other CE compliant bar feeders that will be available right after EMO are the Alpha ST 320 S2 and the entry level solution Alpha SL 65 S.

Innovative & ecological LNS presents new chip disposal and coolant management systems. To ptimize productivity and reduce energy consumption, LNS, the Swiss Group introduces the innovative chip conveyor Turbo MH250 and the high pressure coolant system PowerStream VP.

Smart: Turbo MH250 The patent pending Turbo MH250 chip conveyor is unique on the CCM market: "There is no comparative product", says Jamie Towers, Global Product Manager CCM. Unlike most of the other conveyors, the Turbo MH250 operates with only one motor and belt, filtering all chip types and shapes as well as all kind of materials. The energy consumption has been cut down by 50%, making it one of the most environment friendly filtering conveyors on the market. Due to its versatility, ease of maintenance, energy efficiency and the reduction of down times, the Turbo MH250 is a very cost-effective solution.

New high pressure coolant system Another LNS innovation launched on the market is the PowerStream VP high pressure coolant system (HPC). "With the PowerStream VP, we complete our HPC product range and reinforce LNS’ position as the One-Stop-Shop for the machine tool industry", explains Towers. Optimizing productivity, cutting energy consumption and increasing user friendliness were the key targets while developing the PowerStream VP. The innovative plug-and-play unit allows programmable variable pressure outputs, making the product highly flexible and energy efficient. By constantly monitoring the pressure output and regulating the speed of the motor, the PowerStream VP only uses the minimum amount of power to reach the desired pressure. Towers: "The system does not create excess flow which wastes energy and creates excess heat. In tests, customers were able to reduce energy consumption by more than 70%."
