Extra-Compact Steady Rest



SMW Autoblok has introduced the new RX Steady Rest designed especially for machines with limited mounting space. Despite being built with minimum overall dimensions, the RX provides a large clamping range of 100 mm to 520 mm within a single steady rest.

"An innovative double cam actuating mechanism enables the RX to avoid interference with operations by clearing both the door and chip conveyer of the machine. An integrated actuating cylinder completes the extra compact design," said a company spokesperson.

The RX is engineered to provide a high level of centering accuracy and repeatability. Productivity is also enhanced by features like a fully sealed design and an integrated coolant flush to clear away chips.
