CNC Machining Center Offers Automation Capability
The CNC C 22 U dynamic high speed machining center from Hermle can be fully automated with the addition of the PW 150 pallet changer.
According to the company, the pallet changer does not have to be dismantled for transportation, does not require a floor mounting and can be quickly adapted to the user’s facility. The standard design can handle as many as six pallets, with additional storage for 11 pallets. The side setup station (optional rotation) enables setup concurrent with production time. Optionally, several machining centers can be interlinked and combined into an automated manufacturing center with an extended pallet changer.
