MultiZero Automation Pallets

Zero-point clamping system designed for industries that demand flexibility and efficiency in workpiece handling

Automation that doesn't compromise on flexibility

Flexible workholding in milling automation

Most automation systems are optimised for one product, running in volume. MultiZero Automation Pallets change that, bringing the modular, part-agnostic flexibility of the MultiZero System directly into the automated production environment.

The automation pallet surface replicates the MultiZero Base Plate standard. All MultiZero workholding elements – modular vises, risers, clamps, support elements, mount directly onto the pallet with 5 μm zero-point repeatability. Set up offline while the machine runs.

Every MultiZero Automation Pallet is customized to match the interface of any automation provider while maximizing the available workpiece envelope, with a custom pallet size. The top surface remains fully MultiZero compatible regardless of the automation interface below.

Every MultiZero component comes with 3D data, so the complete pallet layout – workholding configuration, tool access paths, and machining operations, can be verified digitally before the first chip is cut. RFID chips can be added to pallets and workholding elements for full tracking across the production process.

Modular pallet system for flexible automation setups

Flexible workholding in milling automation

MultiZero Automation Pallets are designed for milling automation, featuring a surface with conical slots based on the MultiZero System standard. Optimized for both weight and size, these pallets are perfectly suited for integration with automation rackets in modern CNC environments.

Engineered for automation workholding, the pallets are fully compatible with all MultiZero elements, including modular vises, risers, and support elements. This allows users to implement a flexible zero-point clamping system directly into their automation processes.

With the versatility of the MultiZero System, manufacturers can now automate not only high-volume, repeatable parts but also low-volume or individual components. This makes automation in milling more adaptable, efficient, and accessible across a wide range of production scenarios.

Compatible with leading automation systems

Fast workholding changeover and less machine downtime

Streamlines small batch & special machining production with quick setup changes, modular clamping, and external pallet options for minimal machine downtime and maximum productivity.

Mold & Die

Consistent accuracy across the whole tool production process

Simplified workholding with flexible, standardized solutions, minimizes errors in tool production. High zero-point repeatability ensures seamless transitions across machining processes, maintaining accuracy and reliability throughout projects, even for the most complex tools.

Two Implementation Approaches

Available as a turnkey solution or as an adapter for your existing automation setup.

Existing Setup · Adapter
Adapter for Existing Pallets

Already running an automated system with existing pallets? The MultiZero Adapter solution integrates the MultiZero zero-point clamping standard onto your current pallets — without replacing your existing automation infrastructure.

  • MultiZero interface plate mounts to your existing machine pallets
  • Preserves your current automation hardware and pallet changer investment
  • Immediate access to the full MultiZero workholding portfolio
  • Allows gradual implementation — equip one pallet at a time
  • Compatible with most standard pallet interfaces (T-slots, threaded)
  • Custom machining available for non-standard pallet geometries
