The A16088SD is a rugged, automatic pallet changer designed by Midaco to transform large Vertical Machining Centers and Bridge Mills into high-production workhorses. This system is configured for Single-Dual operation, providing two external loading stations that allow operators to safely set up a new job while the machine is actively cutting. This feature virtually eliminates machine downtime for loading and unloading.

The system includes two large 160 inch by 88 inch by 2-5 inch end load cast aluminum pallets. These pallets are seated in four Series 81A pneumatic receivers, offering a total capacity of 32-000 lbs (14-528 kg) with weight distributed evenly. Pallet exchange is handled by an end load shuttle equipped with two servo drive screws for each shuttle, ensuring the exchange process is both fast and highly reliable. Key components included are the automatic door and an indicator lamp, confirming its readiness for immediate integration and optimized workflow. This pallet changer is essential for shops looking to process massive parts or handle high-volume- continuous production.
