The Bar Puller that makes your CNC-Lathe more effective, right away!

For various reasons, such as high costs or limited floor space in work shops, only a small

percentage of the CNC-Lathes are equipped with some kind of magazine-type barfeeder.  

In small batch production, however, the machine spindle itself, in addition with its inserted  

guiding tube and Grippex, provides you with a simple and highly efficient Bar-Feeder.
