Case Studies

The main difference between a bar feed and a slug is the material used. A bar feed is a long metal bar that is fed into a machine to be machined into a specific shape or size. A slug is a solid piece of material that is fed into a machine and then machined into a specific shape or size. The cost of a bar feed is typically less than that of a slug and is often used when a large number of parts are needed. The cost of a slug is typically more than that of a bar feed, but it is often the preferred option for higher precision and more intricate parts.
