ABSTRACT:
A vertical machining center is usable in combination with a horizontal machining center in a flexible manufacturing system with no incompatibility of their pallets. This should be attributable to the provision of a vertical pallet designed to clamp a horizontal pallet thereon. The vertical pallet includes, inter alia, a pallet base with a cylinder recess, a pallet saddle provided above the pallet base and removably holding the horizontal pallet therealong, the pallet saddle movable between an up position wherein the horizontal pallet remains unclamped and a down position wherein the horizontal pallet is clamped against the pallet base, and an actuator for causing the pallet saddle to move between the up position and the down position.
