The Midaco A8035SD Pallet Changer system is engineered to dramatically increase productivity by minimizing machine downtime associated with loading and unloading large workpieces. This automatic system allows operators to set up a new job outside the machining center while the machine is actively running, effectively eliminating spindle interruption. The core of the system is the Series 81A pneumatic receiver, which provides a secure foundation and utilizes a powerful air blast to ensure chips are cleared before the pallet seats, guaranteeing consistent precision.

The A8035SD package includes two robust 80 inch by 34.5 inch End Load Cast Aluminum Pallets, built for strength yet lightweight for efficient transfer. These pallets can manage a substantial, evenly distributed load of up to 8-000 lbs (3-632 kg). The system operates via a Series 80 End Load Shuttle unit that is seamlessly integrated with the machine’s operation. Crucially, the shuttle features an Automatic Door and indicator lamp, facilitating smooth, automated pallet exchanges that are ready for advanced automation like robotic integration. This system is the ideal solution for large vertical machining centers needing reliable, heavy-duty automation to achieve maximum production efficiency.
