ONE Shuttle + FOUR Pallets = QUADRUPLE the Walk-Away Time
Conveniently access all 4 pallets from either flip-panel station located on 2 sides of the shuttle. Easily load and unload parts onto pallets with a crane or robot without any overhead obstruction.
Full 360 degree rotation of the shuttle's pallet carrousel.
Servo driven with +/-0.0001" repeatability.
The shuttle's servo drive transfers the next pallet onto the cast iron receiver mounted directly onto the machining center table. Durable precision ground steel rails and hardened locating pins/bushings assure +/- 0.0001” (0.0025mm) repeatability.
Specifications:
- 1- servo drive shuttle system with automatic door and light curtain.
- 4 - cast aluminum or cast iron pallets sizes from 50" x 19" (1270mm x 482mm) up to 50” x 24” (1270mm x 609mm).
- 1 - cast iron pneumatic receiver with 2,000 lb (908 kg) weight capacity per pallet {with weight evenly distributed}.
- Control panel is fully integrated with the VMC via M-codes.
With safety guarding via a light emitter, mirrors and sensors, a pallet change will not occur if the invisible light beams surrounding the shuttle system are breached.
MIDACO's Automatic 4-Pallet Pool is also available as a Dual System with one shuttle mounted on each side of the VMC, supplying a total of 8 pallets.
