Future-proof CNC automation —
for new and existing cnc machines.

Less downtime. More output. Always in control of your production capacity.

 Discover how our loading robots make the difference


Need more unmanned spindle hours? HALTER makes it possible.

CNC machines often stand idle while operators are changing parts or running other jobs.
Hiring more people is difficult — and buying another machine is a costly way to add capacity, especially when no one is available to run it.

HALTER automation turns idle spindle time into production time — proven in over 1,000 shops worldwide.

The HALTER SOlution

HALTER CNC loading robots automate any CNC — from new installations to machines that have been running for decades.
They handle repetitive loading and unloading to maximize spindle hours and machine utilization.
Available in multiple sizes and configurations, HALTER systems fit every type of CNC operation.

  • Works with lathes, mills, and multi-machine setups

    Proven integration with all major CNC brands — even models over 20 years old.

  • Fast setup and changeovers

    Typical changeover under 5 minutes; move to another machine in 15–30 minutes.

  • Expandable with extra functionalities

    Add extra steps in process - measuring, cleaning, deburring, unloading on pallets etc, initially or as production evolves. Always included in intuitive SmartControl.

  • Works with every workpiece

    We automate various types of workpieces, variating in shape, size and materials, complex or simple, with short or long cycle times. When needed, we provide customized grippers or gripper fingers.

  • Supported locally and remotely

    Certified partners and HALTER HQ ensure quick service and long-term reliability.
