4.5 Complete service of tool changer
We recommend a complete service on tool changers to be carried out every 5 years. This will
ensure proper function and increase the lifespan of the tool changer considerably. We further
recommend that the maintenance shall be carried out by qualified RSP personnel. Please
contact us for a quotation.
The 5 year tool changer service at Robot System Products includes inspection and cleaning of
the full unit, replacement of all wear parts including sealings and signal pins.
