Description
The revolutionary new Kurt APW420 Pneumatic Pallet is an air-actuated pallet for 5-Axis Workholding. The pneumatic pallet is a turn-key automated 96 mm zero-point mounting system that can be operated using the switch on the pallet or configured for remote or fully automated use. New Kurt PFW 5-Axis Vises with 96 mm pull stud locations are the perfect pair to the pneumatic pallet.
Pneumatic Pallets are easy to automate in the same way that Kurt air vises are set up for automation. READ ABOUT IT HERE –>
The new Kurt APW420 Pneumatic Pallet is designed to be mounted on a machine table with two through bolts. Industry-standard 96-mm spaced pull studs hold vises in place. Setting up the system requires only shop air and a Kurt filter regulator lubricator unit. Additional accessories can be added to a setup depending on the needs of the shop. A remote switch can be added outside of the machine, or an operator can simply lock and unlock a vise using the built-in switch on the base. A fully automated setup can be achieved with using additional solenoids and a machine tool controller, robot, or PLC.
Once the Kurt APW Air Pallet is mounted in a machine, it takes only seconds to lock in or remove a vise from the base. The new pallet is designed to work equally well for rapid manual machine setups or multi-vise automated machine tending. New robot-ready Kurt PFW420, PFW440 and PFW460 5-axis vise models dock on the pallet using 4 pull studs with 96 mm spacing and offer top-quality design and construction for CNC workholding. Kurt PFW vises have 4-inch-wide jaws and come in three sizes with openings between 2.625 and 6.625 inches. The Air Pallet’s 96 mm universal pull stud spacing also accommodates non-Kurt brand 5-axis vises.
Includes set of 4 pull studs and 3/8″ hex wrench
