VC Series Pallet Pool

VC Series Pallet Pool

Our 6+1 pallet pool for the VC-400/SS is perfect for high-volume production runs, or high-mix/low-volume machining. The pallets (22" x 14.5" with T-slots) 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 side-mount tool changer. The Pallet Pool must be anchored for proper operation. Not available for field installation.

Work Envelope: 22" width x 16" depth (558 x 406 mm)
6+1 pallets (6 storage locations + 1 machining station)
500 lb (227 kg) max payload per pallet (workpiece + workholding)

VC Series Pallet Pool Overview

The Pallet Pool option available on Haas VC Series vertical 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.
