Every VL also features a recirculating storage conveyor, on which so called “carrier prisms” convey the workpieces to and from the pick-up station. This ensures that a large range of components can be processed automatically and without great resetting effort. Turning + automation = VLAutomatic workpiece changeover in the shortest possible time Integrated automation = low capital outlay Short workhandling and machining travels = shortest cycle times High degree of machine availability Ideal chip flow conditions, as the chips fall to the bottom Very short chip-to-chip times Small footprint Being hook-and-shift machines, the VLs are easy to move
