The machine side is equipped with a precision-engineered Series 30A pneumatic receiver that boasts a capacity of 1000 LB (weight evenly distributed) and a built-in air blast feature to ensure chips and debris are cleared before the pallet is clamped, guaranteeing highly accurate location repeatability.
