ATI Industrial Automation is releasing a new standard tool changing option for smaller robots. The QC-29 Robotic Tool Changer is said to bring the benefits of ATI’s Heavy Duty Tool Changers to robots in the 25–35 kg payload class. The QC-29 is reportedly the first standard ATI tool changer designed with a rectangular body that mounts directly to 40 mm and 50 mm robot wrists.
The QC-29 also includes in-body lock/unlock sensing and a new locking mechanism. Built-in air ports and three module mounting flats is said to make connecting utilities easy, and the Zero-Freeplay design reportedly ensures maximum repeatability for high-efficiency tool changing.
The QC-29 is compatible with ATI’s large selection of standard utility modules and tool stands enabling a vast array of unique configurations ranging from ultrasonic welding to servo motor support and more.
