The A14940SDY is a robust and efficient Automatic Pallet Changer engineered to drastically reduce machine downtime by allowing operators to set up a new job while the machine is running. This specific model features a Y-Axis Shift Shuttle unit which is critical for moving large workpieces into the machine envelope, improving ergonomics and safety during external loading and unloading. The system comes equipped with two extra-large 149 inch by 40 inch by 2-5 inch Cast Aluminum Pallets that provide ample surface area for large or multiple components.

Core to the system’s performance is the two Series 52A Pneumatic Receivers, which include an air blast feature to ensure the pallet is seated precisely and securely every time, maintaining tight machining tolerances. The system is built for heavy-duty use, boasting an impressive total pallet load capacity of 8-000 lbs (3-632 kg), provided the weight is evenly distributed. This Automatic Pallet System also includes an Automatic Door and an indicator lamp on the Series 140 End Load Shuttle unit for enhanced safety and monitoring during operation. By converting non-cutting time into production time, the A14940SDY helps manufacturers achieve an excellent return on investment and a high level of throughput.
