fitting between tailstocks
FITTING WITH A STEADY (OPTION 114300)
A steady is used when machining very long axes and when the tailstock centre can be
used. The steady is mounted on the longitudinal carriage and the brass pads or ball
bearings are positioned on the opposite side to the tool. This avoids vibration (therefore
ensuring good quality machining).
MOUNTING WITH A FIXED STEADY (OPTION 114320
A fixed steady is used when machining very only axes when the tailstock centre cannot
be used (boring, thread cutting). The fixed steady is mounted on the bench between the
chuck and the tool carrier carriage
