ABSTRACT:
An automated turret lathe is provided with an automated finished part collection system. The parts are collected as they are produced and are not allowed to fall among chips, shavings and other debris in the turret lathe bed. As the turret head of the turret lathe is withdrawn to allow each machined portion of the work stock to be cut from the remaining raw, unmachined bar of work stock, the turret head travels along a path of withdrawal in which an actuating means is located. The actuating means triggers advancement of an elongated arm and rotation of a collection receptacle that is secured to the end of the elongated arm. The receptacle is oriented concave upward as it is brought into a position immediately beneath the machined portion of the work stock. When that portion is cut from the remaining bar of work stock as a finished part, it falls into the receptacle which then is retracted. As the elongated arm carrying the receptacle retracts, the receptacle is rotated to deposit the finished part from the receptacle into a collection bin.
