Swiss LNS Group to showcase new designs

The Swiss LNS Group is to present a number of its new machine tool peripherals at the upcoming world exhibition, EMO, in Milan from October 5th to 10th.

Among the new items available is the Sprint 542 - the most versatile bar feeder available today from anyone on the market, according to LNS.

Its configuration allows the Sprint to be completely flexible, whether it is working with cone or collet, with bar diameter adjustments which are manual or automatic and even with or without Z-axis retraction.

The company also placed particular emphasis on its Alpha ST 320, a new entry-level offering which will be joined by other new tools in the same range in the next two years.

Commenting on the offering, Carlos Muniz, LNS global product manager, said: "The Alpha ST 320 line is the first LNS bar feeder on the entry level range. We developed it especially for companies that run the same product all day long or do not change the settings too often.

"It is easy to operate and reaches the high LNS standards at a reasonable price."

The LNS Group was established in 2000 and employs over 700 people in North America, the UK, China and Switzerland, among others.
