Gauging tables to suit the structural gauging bar LML
Structural gauging bar LML 524 combined with gauging system WBL 4/10 ref no. 533.
Applications in steel construction
The material support tables for the length measuring rail type LML (ref. no. 524) carry long sections and bars during measuring and finishing and keep the material at the height of the measuring rail. This allows even bulky long material to be guided safely against the stop and brought to length.
Typical applications
- Supporting long structural steel and flat steel bars during cutting to length
- Material guidance in combination with the LML length measuring rail for dimensionally accurate cuts
- Safe support of long material during punching and finishing
- Preventing long workpieces from sagging, so that the stop dimension is correct
- Extending the working area on shears, punching machines and punching units
Which businesses use it
Used in steel construction, metalworking, steel trading and locksmithing, where long sections and bars are machined to size.
Frequently asked questions
What are material support tables on a finishing machine used for?
They carry long structural and flat material during machining and keep it horizontal at working height. As a result the workpiece does not sag, it can be guided safely against the stop and the length read off corresponds to the actual cutting dimension.
How do the support tables work together with the LML length measuring rail?
The support tables guide the material at the height of the measuring rail, so that the bar slides flush against the stop and the dimension can be read directly on the rail. Together the two components form a continuous measuring and support area for long material.
Why is support important for long sections?
Without support, long material sags under its own weight, which falsifies the stop dimension and makes handling unsafe. The support tables keep the bar straight and at height, which enables dimensionally accurate and safe working.
