HMC APC Comparison: Pallet Size, Load and Exchange Time

HMC500APC: 500 × 500 mm, 500 kg, 15 s exchange.

Technical application analysis. Pallet-mounted workpieces; HMC500APC, HMC630APC, HMC630SAPC and HMC800APC; two-table automatic pallet changing.

Reference configuration and timing

HMC500APC: 500 × 500 mm, 500 kg, 15 s exchange.
HMC630APC: 630 × 630 mm, 1,200 kg, 16 s.
HMC630SAPC: 630 × 700 mm, 950 kg, 20 s.
HMC800APC: 800 × 800 mm, 2,000 kg, 18 s. Each listed model has two tables.

Engineering evaluation

Assess fixture-plus-part mass, offset and the rotating envelope before choosing by table size. A larger table need not exchange more slowly; the mechanism and specified test conditions govern the number.

Separate seller identity from manufacturer identity. Axis positioning specifications are not fixture repeatability or finished-part accuracy, and two available pallets still need external workpiece preparation.

Selection conditions and evidence limits

These are supplier-platform specifications, with reposts not counted as separate projects. Machine version, load definition and manufacturer require purchase-document verification; no New Partner delivery is established.

Application questions

Does the largest table have the longest listed exchange?

No. The cited 800 mm model lists 18 s, while the 630SAPC lists 20 s.

Do table dimensions define the full part envelope?

No. Fixture height, rotation, tool access and machine clearances must also be checked.
