| Handling stations Loading stations Machine pallet loading/unloading stations are individually selected for each application. The stations incorporate pallet rotation and either a lifting or tilting pallet table. In the case of two-sided pallet storage, motorized transport is used between the racking area and the operator area. Loading stations can be splash proof and equipped with a drain for guiding the coolant from the station to the collection tank. Material handling stations Material handling stations are used when material pallets for either raw material or finished work pieces are included in the FM system. These stations can be either drawer type stations or roller conveyor in/out stations |
