The MIDACO Automatic Pallet Changer is the perfect partner to your Vertical Machining Center. Our pallet changers can be integrated with new equipment or with your existing #machinery. Mounted on either the right or left side of the VMC, MIDACO’s pallet changers work with your VMC to greatly reduce spindle downtime. While pallet “A” is in the VMC, being machined, pallet “B” is outside with the operator removing finished parts and loading the pallet with new parts for the next operation. Once the parts inside the VMC are complete, the pallets switch out automatically and the process repeats, virtually eliminating spindle downtime.
The MIDACO A16SD series Automatic Pallet Changer with pallet sizes between 22″x14″ to 27″x15″ (558.8mm x 355.6mm to 685.8mm x 381mm) is designed for smaller VMCs, has a 6.5 second pallet change time (depending on weight of parts on the pallet), and a receiver weight capacity of 500 lbs (227kg).
