20+1 Pallet Pool, UMC-500/SS

Our 20+1 pallet pool for the UMC-500/SS is perfect for high-volume production runs, or high-mix/low-volume machining. The pallets can be scheduled individually according to priority and sequencing requirements, allowing high-priority parts to be machined first or staged more often. Completed pallets are returned automatically to the holding location, or can be sequenced to a protected operator station for immediate unloading and re-loading.

NOTE: Requires optional 50+1 or 70+1 side-mount tool changer. A hopper-style chip bin is required to clear the 95-gallon (360 L) coolant tank. The Pallet Pool must be anchored for proper operation. Must be ordered with the machine. 

• Work Envelope: 8" dia. x 16.5" tall (203 x 420 mm)

UMC-500(SS) Pallet Pool Overview

The 20-Station Pallet Pool option for the Haas UMC-500 and UMC-500SS Universal Machining Centers is designed for high-volume production and unattended operation. This manufacturing solution also excels at high-mix/low-volume part runs, because the user can assign a specific part program for each pallet. Each time that pallet is moved into the machining area, the control will automatically call the assigned part program.
