The Heavy Automation Series of Tool Changers is built around a 'square' body and uses our patented high-strength locking mechanism. This series of Tool Changers is more modular in design, with a wide variety of electrical, pneumatic, fluid, and high-power modules available. Heavy Automation Tool Changers are commonly used in heavy material handling and primary and secondary welding applications.
Extremely High Repeatability
The piston acts as a large dowel pin, aligning the Master plate and Tool plate with unmatched repeatability. Million-cycle testing, at rated load, shows that the typical repeatability is much better than the guaranteed values.
High Rigidity
The Quick-Change Tool Changer has a large moment capacity due to the locking piston's high coupling strength and large diameter. The coupled Tool Changer remains rigid during high-inertia moves preventing locking failure or repeatability problems.
Excellent Reliability
The patented multi-taper locking mechanism actually wears in instead of out. The pneumatic ports use uniquely-designed, long-life rubber bushings, which prevent any loss of air pressure. Spring probe electrical pins on the Master Plate insure contact with fixed pins on the Tool Plate. The Quick-Change Robotic Tool Changer is built to last.
Superior Fail-Safe Locking Mechanism
The ATI Tool Changer Locking Mechanism has a Fail-Safe feature that prevents the Tool plate from releasing from the Master plate if lock air pressure is accidentally removed.
Lightweight and Compact Design
Economical
World-wide sales volumes have allowed us to price the Quick-Change Tool Changer at or below the competition.
Flexible
