Description

Multi 4000 Bar Loading Magazine

The Multi 4000 is an advanced bar loading magazine designed for lathes. Initially developed in Switzerland, it is now manufactured in Germany using premium materials and components. This latest version features an enhanced control system that builds upon the reliable framework of the Multi 3000, offering new functionalities and an improved user interface.

The new control system represents the first phase of several planned development steps, making conversions of the bar loading magazine faster and easier. The 7-inch touch display provides a user-friendly operation experience, with every parameter and error message detailed in comprehensive information windows. This feature reduces the need for an operating manual, as users can quickly identify and resolve issues on their own.

Performance enhancements are significant in the Multi 4000. It operates at speeds up to 80 m/min, making it approximately 30% faster than its predecessor. The sophisticated design allows for quick setup and changeover within 2-5 minutes, greatly reducing downtime and increasing efficiency in operations. Durability was a primary focus during development, ensuring the machine’s long-term reliability and the extended availability of spare parts. Maintenance has been streamlined, with the control unit offering a range of new functions and options that facilitate easier servicing.

One of the standout features of the Multi 4000 is its patented overlift mechanism, which guarantees an impact-free and rapid loading cycle. This mechanism, along with the gentle material handling design, ensures the safe and efficient loading of bars into the lathe, minimizing the risk of damage.

The Multi 4000 bar loading magazine represents a significant advancement in the field. It combines faster and more efficient operation with user-friendly controls, maintaining high standards of durability and serviceability. This makes it an ideal choice for modern machining environments where reliability and performance are paramount.
