The Metzner Flat Pallet System has especially been developed for the storage and transportation of carbide cutting inserts.
Applications in other areas in which sensitive small parts in big quantities and various types are treated are possible as well. The system forms the basis for a continuous automation in the production. It becomes particularly efficient combined with standardized stacker systems for a automatic handling of the pallets.
Powerful vision systems enable the handling of different workpieces without any need of specific pallet modifications. The position of the workpieces within the pallet is automatically recognized and transferred to the robot control system. With the Metzner Flat Pallet the best solution for an efficient and reliable automation is found. Only five different pallet sizes are needed to handle nearly all available types of carbide cutting inserts.
