5 Function
The tool changer is a two-piece machine element. The fixed part
1
is installed on a handling system.
The loose part
3
is installed directly on the tool. The connection of both elements is form fit and frictionally fit through
the locking bolts
4
in the locking sleeve
8
. The required stroke is generated by a double-acting pneumatic rotor
cylinder
5
. An integrated spring
6
acts as an energy storage and preserves the capability of the tool changer to be
locked in the event of a power failure or interruption.
A fixed part can be operated with as many loose parts as desired. That significantly reduces set-up times for changing
tools.
