Description: |
| Abstract:
The coordinate slides of a peripheral device for machine tools, are guided in a guide and are manually advanced for purposes of coarse adjustment. For purposes of fine adjustment, each coordinate slide can be coupled with an associated fine-adjustment pinion gear by means of non-positive clamps. The clamps, positioned on the slide, are often capable of being activated only with a lot of grouping around on the part of the operator making the adjustment. In the peripheral equipment in accordance with the invention every clamping element is electrically activated so that the activating switch can be positioned convenient to reach next to the activating member of the fine-adjustment pinion gear. Adjusting the equipment is accordingly essentially facilitated. |
