The Midaco A8035SD Dual Pallet Changer with aluminum pallets is a robust automation solution engineered to dramatically reduce machine idle time and boost overall productivity in large-scale Vertical Machining Centers. This system operates by allowing operators to safely set up new jobs on one pallet outside the machining center while the machine is actively cutting on the second pallet, essentially eliminating downtime caused by loading and unloading. The core of the changer is a Series 81A pneumatic receiver that utilizes a built-in powerful air blast system to clear chips and debris before the pallet seats, which is crucial for guaranteeing consistent clamping accuracy and repeatability. The package includes four 80 inch by 34-5 inch cast aluminum pallets, which are lightweight yet durable, and are rated for a maximum evenly distributed load of 8-000 lbs (3-632 kg). The two Series 80 end load shuttle units are equipped with an Automatic Door and an indicator lamp for safe and fully efficient operation, making this unit a reliable and necessary addition for high-volume, large-part manufacturing.
