With the shaft handling module, shafts up to 450 mm can be loaded as standard — and even up to 800 mm as a special

Thanks to intuitive HALTER SmartControl, setting up a new series takes just a few steps — typically in less than 5 minutes, which makes it also efficient for small series.

Backside set up or reloading keeps the robot running — refill anytime when it fits your schedule. No idle machine time while waiting for your reload.
No need to wait for the batch to finish or to be standing there at the exact moment it ends.
You can relocate the Halter unit to another CNC machine in just 15–30 minutes. Simply place it on the anchor points and it’s ready to run

Extra functionalities of the Halter loading robots

Additional functionalities allow you to use the loading robot even more efficiently. Thus, we offer automation solutions that grow with your business.

WORKPIECE TURNOVER FUNCTION FOR TWO-SIDED MACHINING

After one side of the workpiece is machined (OP10), the half-finished workpiece is positioned on a turnover station. Then it can be gripped on the other side of the workpiece and again placed in the chuck or vice of the CNC machine so the second side can be machined (OP20).

Unloading the Workpiece onto a Pallet

The finished workpieces can be unloaded onto an additional pallet. This is ideal if you want to add buffer capacity or load heavy workpieces.

Unloading workpiece onto an external fixed location


A workpiece can be unloaded onto an external location, i.e. a conveyor belt.

COLLECTING A WORKPIECE FROM A REVOLVER TOOL

The workpiece can be collected from a pickoff tool after machining in the CNC machine.

Cleaning the Workpiece Outside the CNC Machine

The robot unloads the CNC machine and then moves the workpiece to an external cleaning station before returning the workpiece to the HALTER LoadAssistant.

Positioning the Workpiece on a Measuring Station

The robot unloads the CNC machine and moves the workpiece to an external measuring station before returning the workpiece to the HALTER LoadAssistant. The robot can place rejected workpieces in a separate position.

Positioning workpiece on a measuring station 1

WORKPIECE SIDE-GRIPPING

The workpiece is axially taken from the loading table and positioned on a side-gripping station. Then it is regripped perpendicularly and positioned in the vice of the CNC machine. This allows a high buffer capacity for long workpieces.

Shaft Handling

Long shafts can be loaded and unloaded with seamless placement in the chuck, creating high capacity for shafts up to 600 mm, with standard grid plates and up to 1000 mm with custom grid plates.

Customer-Specific Functionalities

Halter’s application engineering team can design grid plates and special gripper fingers for your specific workpieces or castings - for example, if you want to automate castings or other workpieces that require special handling. All these customer-specific solutions can be implemented in the user-friendly HALTER SmartControl. The flexibility of our solutions ensures that you can automate an even greater variety of workpieces.

With halter you get...

More Spindle Hours

Every hour your CNC stands still is money gone. Automation keeps your spindle cutting — even when people aren’t available.

Solve the Operator Shortage

Good operators are hard to find and harder to keep. A robot takes over the repetitive work so your skilled people stay — and new talent actually wants the job.

Don’t Lose Work to Competitors

Shops that automate quote faster, deliver faster, and win more orders. Don’t let the next job go to someone else.

REAL CUSTOMERS. REAL STORIES. REAL RESULTS.

1000+ happy customers. This is what we care about.
