ATI Tool Changer Enables Reliable Exchange of Robotic Tooling
The MC-50 provides a solution for quickly changing robotic end-of-arm tooling by hand.
ATI Industrial Automation has introduced the MC-50 Manual Tool Changer, which is designed to provide performance, reliability and quality for the manual exchange of robotic tooling.
With intuitive and ergonomic lever operation, the MC-50 provides a simple solution for quickly changing robotic end-of-arm tooling by hand. This compact tool changer is designed for applications on cobots that support payloads up to 25 kg and small industrial robots supporting payloads up to 10 kg.
Featuring an ISO 50-mm mounting interface on the master side and tool side, the low-profile MC-50 mounts directly to most cobots, and seamlessly integrates with many common cobot marketplace grippers and end effectors.
The MC-50 also includes a safety latch button on the lever to provide secondary locking for increased safety and prevention of involuntary uncoupling. A variety of electrical and pneumatic utilities for downstream end-effectors are supported through four M5 integrated pneumatic pass-through ports and a mounting flat for optional ATI Utility Modules.
Target industry segments include electronics, aerospace, automotive and general industry.
