The A3016SDCELC Pallet Changer is a high-performance automation solution from Midaco, designed to maximize productivity and ensure safety in vertical machining centers, specifically for International Export Only. This system is built around the reliable Series 30 End Load Shuttle unit, which automatically exchanges workpieces, allowing machining to continue uninterrupted while the operator sets up the next job outside the machine enclosure. This significantly reduces spindle downtime and leads to higher output.

The unit features a standard pneumatic receiver with a capacity of 1-000 lbs (454 kgs)—or an optional 2-000 lb (908 kgs) upgrade—equipped with an air blast to ensure clean, precise pallet seating. The system comes complete with two 30 inch by 15-5 inch (762mm by 393-7mm) cast aluminum pallets that are end-loaded for easy access. Critically, the A3016SDCELC includes a comprehensive CE safety package with a Light Curtain system, providing three-sided shuttle guarding via a light emitter, mirrors, and sensors for optimal operator safety during the pallet change process. This combination of non-stop production capability and advanced safety features makes it a premier choice for high-volume manufacturing.
