Traveling Steady Rest - Type 4

The traveling steady rest is fixed on the slide. It facilitates e.g. continuous processing and thread cutting of long shafts or spindles. These rests absorb the pressure directly on the tool at the time of chip removal. They are particularly needed for long thin shafts. Suitable for tools with a diameter of up to ø 400 mm. Seldom suitable for higher diameters. Available as a sliding or rolling steady rest.

Optionally we equip this steady rest with the patented electronic centering display. Once calibrated, the steady rest knows the center of your machine and the quills can be preset to the workpiece diameter.

The foot geometry, the center height and the clamping range are freely configurable for all machines equipped with:
- Conventional flatbed machines with V-profile
- CNC inclined-bed machines
- Linear guide rails.
- T-slot tables
