All steady rests's thrust cylinders are equipped with safety valve.
If the main pressure suddenly drops, the safety valve keeps the cylinder pressure so the steady rest remain in clamping position in order to prevent accidents. When turning tapered workpieces or applied as a travelling unit the check valve has to be disconnected, for further informations please contact our engineering departement.
