The Midaco A8060SD Single/Dual Pallet Changer is a premier automation solution built to boost productivity and efficiency in large-scale machining operations. This robust system is specifically designed for integration with large Vertical Machining Centers and Bridge Mills, enabling continuous, non-stop production. The changer comes standard with two massive 80 inch x 60 inch x 2 1/2 inch (2032 mm x 1524 mm x 63.5 mm) End Load Cast Aluminum Pallets, providing an expansive work surface for large and heavy components.

At the core of the system is the Series 81A pneumatic receiver, engineered for maximum durability with an impressive 8,000 lb (3,632 kg) capacity when the weight is evenly distributed. This high-capacity receiver ensures secure and precise pallet docking every time. The Single/Dual Shuttle design, complete with an automatic door and indicator lamp, facilitates the quick and reliable exchange of pallets in mere seconds, allowing one pallet to be machined while the other is being loaded or unloaded outside the machine envelope. By implementing the A8060SD, shops can drastically reduce non-cutting spindle time, leading to higher machine utilization and faster return on investment.
