If single parts need to be produced as repeat parts or small to medium series, the use of an automation solution with pallets is the ideal solution. One of the main advantages of pallet handling systems is that new workpieces can be clamped or devices converted during production. The pallet stock can amount to several dozen pallets and is based on the average workpiece runtime and the desired total runtime with a minimum of manpower.
Pallet handling systems.
The choice of the optimum automation solution should always be customised to your individual requirements. Depending on the quantities, Workpiece dimensions and the desired unmanned running time, we offer you a wide selection of solutions for the automated loading of our CNC machining centres. In addition to our own pallet automation systems, you can also choose from a wide range of solutions from our well-known partners.

Advantages.
Pallet automation offers an intelligent solution for minimising tooling times, optimising machine running times and increasing flexibility in production. Regardless of workpiece size, material or batch size, pallet handling systems enable a significant increase in productivity. Discover the key benefits of such a solution for your production processes.
Anyone visiting WuM Werkzeug- und Maschinenbau GmbH in Mühlhausen, Thuringia, will get an impression of the end products that are manufactured using their tools from the entrance lobby. WuM machines high-precision stamping tools for the automotive industry on a TILTENTA 7, an ACURA 85 and a FORTE 11.
The innovative Metallverarbeitung Uwe Ebertz GmbH is based in Sinn-Fleisbach, Hesse. Since its foundation, the family business has undergone a transformation from a sheet metal processor to a comprehensive service provider in metal processing. Modern technologies made in Germany are used, such as the Tiltenta 7-3200 machining centre from HEDELIUS Maschinenfabrik GmbH.
Within just a few years, SD Automotive GmbH has developed into a specialised service provider for the automotive industry. By constantly expanding its machinery, the company has been able to master the high demands placed on milling in particular. The latest technology in the chipping range comes from HEDELIUS in Meppen.
"We at WVG Alu tec from Bad Arolsen have known HEDELIUS for many years and are already something of a family. And where do you trust each other more than within a family?" That's why Gruhs is proud of the "latest achievement", as he puts it: the TILTENTA 7-3200 5-axis machining centre with swivelling spindle and two integrated NC rotary tables.
WFT Werkzeug- und Frästechnik GmbH** specialises in the precise production of pre-series and series tools for the plastics processing industry. The company's example impressively demonstrates what can be achieved with the right automation solution - and why employees also benefit from it.
WKT-Wernemann Kunststofftechnik GmbH** is a second-generation family business that has continued to grow at its founding location in Geeste-Dalum. Since 1994, the company has been manufacturing GRP parts for a wide range of applications and in all shapes, from threaded rods to complete insulating housings. For precise chipping, the company relies on 3-axis and 5-axis machining centres from HEDELIUS.
HEDELIUS machining centres from the EL series enable manufacturer-independent automation of production. Loading takes place via a pneumatically activated loading opening on the side of the machine. This means that the work area remains fully accessible for manual single part production as well as set-up and control work.
