2 VISIT WWW.ATI-IA.COM FOR CURRENT PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS, 2-D DRAWINGS, AND 3-D CAD MODELS

Product Description

The Quick-Change provides flexibility to robotapplications by allowing the robot to change end-effectors(e.g. grippers, vacuum cup tooling, pneumatic and electricmotors, weld guns, etc.) automatically. The Quick-Changeconsists of a Master plate and a Tool plate.

The Master plate, installed on the robot arm, locksto the Tool plate with a pneumatically-driven lockingmechanism. This locking mechanism uses a patented,double-tapered piston with ball locking technology anda patented fail-safe mechanism. The Master allows forthe passage of pneumatic and electrical connections tothe Tool plate.

The Tool plate is attached to each end-effector. TheTool plate interfaces with the Master plate’s pneumaticand electrical connections and passes them on to theend-effector.

General Tool Changer Advantages

Lines changed in seconds instead of hours.

Increase operator safety by changing tools automatically.

Change tools in seconds for maintenance and repair.

Increase flexibility of your robots by adding the abilityto use more than one end-effector in an application.

Heavy and large multi-tool end-effectors replaced

with individual tools that are automatically exchanged.

Quick-Change Family (left to right from back row; Master plate is standing, Tool plate islying flat directly in front of each Master plate); QC-110; QC-60; QC-20; QC-41; QC-150;Front row: QC-40; QC-5; QC-21.

ATI Tool Changer Advantages

Superior Fail-safe Locking: The locking mechanismhas a built-in, patented fail-safe feature that keeps theTool plate secured to the Master plate in the event ofpneumatic pressure loss. This fail-safe featureeliminates the need for a spring.

High Rigidity: The Quick-Change has a high momentcapacity due to the locking piston’s large diameter andsecond taper. The Quick-Change does not rock duringhigh-inertia moves, preventing locking failure orrepeatability problems.

Unmatched Repeatability: The piston acts as a largedowel pin, aligning the master and tool with remarkablerepeatability. Repeatability specifications are based onmillion-cycle testing.

No-Touch LockingTM Technology: The Quick-Changecan lock successfully with a gap between the Masterand Tool plates.

3 Year Warranty: Our warranty is based on years ofobservation and analysis by our customers in the fieldand extensive laboratory testing.

Simple Interface: Plate design allows for easy robotmounting.

Interface plate

Piston

Lock air pressure pushes thepiston down, driving the ballsout and under the lock ring,pulling up the tool plate.

In the event lock pressure is removed, the balls aretrapped by the cam. Sealfriction prevents the pistonfrom moving due to gravity orvibration. Unlock pressure isrequired to move the cam upto the unlocked position.

How to Select a Robotic Tool Changer

1. Sizing

a. Fast method: If the expected moment exerted on thetool changer is low or moderate, select a Quick-Changemodel with a payload rating similar to that of your robot.If the expected moment is high, or if you prefer to usea QC model better suited to the application, see section(b) below.

b. More exact method: Moment capacity is a criticalfactor in selecting the proper Quick-Change model. Usethe following to approximate the worst-case moment.

a) Find the approximate center-of-gravity (CG) of theheaviest end-effector to be used.

b) Calculate the distance (D) from the CG to thebottom of the Tool plate (example below).

c) Calculate the weight (W) of the heaviest end-effector.

d) Multiply W by D to get an approximate staticmoment (M) (or a moment based on one G ofacceleration).

e) Select a Quick-Change with a moment capacityequal to or greater than M.

Robots may produce moments two-to-three times higherthan M due to their potentially high acceleration. TheQuick-Change models are designed to handle dynamicmoments three times higher than their static momentratings.

2. Pneumatic and Electrical: Determine the number andsize of pneumatic ports and electrical contacts needed.Larger Quick-Change models have a greater number ofpneumatic ports and electrical contacts.

3. Temperature and Chemicals: The Quick-Changeuses nitrile bushings to pass air to the Tool plate, andBuna-N O-rings to seal the pneumatic locking mechanism.Not only is this rubber material resistant to mostchemicals, it is able to withstand temperatures rangingfrom -20°F to 150°F. Please contact your sales personfor information regarding temperatures or chemicals forparticular environments.

4. Precision Applications: Be sure to refer to thespecifications when dealing with applications that requirehigh repeatability.

Remember: A tool changer affects robot momentcapacity, payload, size and repeatability. For comparablepayloads the Quick-Change is designed to exceed therobot’s specifications.

TOOL STANDS FOR QC-5 TO QC-21

TSS Modular Tool Stand System

The ATI Modular Tool Stand System,or TSS, is compatible with the smallrange of ATI Tool Changers—modelsQC-5 through QC-21. The Stand isdesigned for maximum flexibility tofit most customers’ applications.The modular system allows you toessentially “build your own” toolstorage rack based on the numberof tools, positioning, and mounting

arrangements desired. The TSS system provides a uniqueoption to either use interface plates or empty air ports onthe tool changer as attachment points for your tooling.

Features

Modular System allows for customization

V-Grooves provide repeatable tool drop-off location

Use Extruded Rail and Base, or mount the racks onyour own platform

Durable Stainless Steel Interface Pins

Proximity Sensor Option

Use Optional Interface Plate or thread pins intounused ports to save stack height

Rack AssemblyThe TSS Rack Assembly includes a rigid “U” shaped plate that interfaceswith the customer’s tooling. The assembly includes mounting hardware,and is designed to mount to the TSS Mounting Block, TSS 3 or 4 ToolAdapter Bar, or TSS Forward Adapter. The Rack can be mounted to anyother surface that has the corresponding mounting features. Each Rackhas V-grooves that interface with stainless steel alignment pins mountedto the tooling. This Groove-Pin combination allows for compliance in thehorizontal plane, and also provides repeatable tool positioning.

Interface Plate AssemblyThe TSS Interface Plate Assembly simply provides an interface betweenyour tool and the Tool Changer. The Interface plates are sized specificallyto correspond with the Tool Changer and TSS Rack. The TSS InterfacePlate assembly also includes 3 stainless steel alignment pins thatinterface with the V-grooves on the TSS Rack. The standard interfaceplates are sold blank to allow customers to machine their own toolingbolt patterns. ATI can provide specific tooling patterns upon request.

Base AssemblyThe TSS Base Assembly consists of a square aluminum machined plateand hardware that attaches to the TSS Rail, and TSS Gusset Assembly.The base provides a secure foundation on which to build the Tool StandSystem.

Rail-and-Gusset AssembliesThe TSS Rail-and-Gusset assemblies mount to the Base Assembly andinclude alignment and mounting hardware. The standard TSS Rail is analuminum extrusion (Bosch 45x90 series) and is approximately 24 incheslong. Customers can request custom lengths when ordering. The TSSGusset (Bosch type 90x90) provides additional structural support at theTool Stand Base.

Mounting BlockThe TSS Mounting Block Assembly mounts to the Rail. It can bepositioned anywhere along the rail to the desired height. Once thedesired height is determined, it is recommended that dowel holes bedrilled into the rail as specified in drawing # 9230-20-1675. These dowelsare needed to ensure accurate positioning over the life of the stand. TheTSS Rack, or Tool Adapter Bars can then mount to the Block. The Blockalso can accommodate a Proximity Sensor Holder.

Adapter BarsCurrently there are 3 types of adapter bars. The 3-Tool Adapter Barmounts to the Mounting Block and can hold up to three TSS Racks. The 4- and 5- Tool Adapter Bars are similar but can hold 4 or 5 TSS Racks atonce respectively. Each Adapter Bar also allows for the attachment of aProximity Sensor Holder for each Rack. The Forward Adapter Bar is alsoavailable, used when your tooling requires extra clearance from the Rail.

TOOL STANDS FOR QC-40 TO QC-150

TSM Modular Tool Stand System

The ATI Modular Tool Stand System, or TSM, iscompatible with the medium range of Tool Changers—QC 40 through QC 150. The Stand is designed formaximum flexibility to fit most customer applications.The modular system allows you to build your own toolstorage rack based on the number of tools, positioning,orientation, and mounting arrangements required. TheTSM provides a unique option to utilize a completearrangement of modules, or use only the tooling-interfacePins and “V” Blocks and mount them on your own fixture.

Features:

Modular System allows for customization

V-Blocks – 4140 Hardened Tool Steel Pin Blocksprovide repeatable tool drop-off

Use Extruded Rails and Base, or mount the racks onyour own platform

Proximity Sensor Option

Adapts to TSL or TSS Modules as well

V-Blocks and PinsThe TSM utilizes V-Shaped 4140 Hardened Steel Blocks that receivecorresponding steel alignment pins. The V-Blocks are designed to mountto extruded railing components or bolt directly onto custom fixtures. Themating alignment pins are included with the TSM Tooling Plate assemblieswhich attach to the tool. The Alignment Pins are also sold separately asreplacement parts or for custom applications.

Mounting ModulesThe TSM Mounting Modules are specifically designed to interface withthe Tooling Plate assemblies for each corresponding QC Tool Changer.Mounting Modules mount onto the included TSM Rail components, oryou may use the existing bolt patterns to mount to your custom fixture.Mounting Modules come in 2 configurations: Horizontal or Vertical QCorientation. See the TSM Product Index for tool interfacing option details.

Tooling Plate AssembliesThe TSM Tooling Plate assemblies attach to your tooling. Alignment Pinsare included with the Tooling Plates. Customers can either specify theirtool attachment requirements at the time of purchase, or choose BlankTooling Plates and opt to machine their tooling Bolt Patterns in later.

Post and Rail ModulesChoose from several TSM Post and Rail Modules to build your specificStand configuration. The Post Modules, Horizontal Modules, andHorizontal Extensions are aluminum extruded rails (Bosch series).Alignment and mounting hardware is included. Basic Standard raillengths are offered, but customers may specify other lengths.

Adapter ModulesTSM Adapter Modules are specifically designed adapter plates withmounting hardware included that attach Mounting Modules to Rail orPost Modules. Adapter Modules extend the flexibility of the Tool StandSystem to cover a myriad of configuration options.

Note:The QC-300 and other heavy automation tool changersare compatible with the TSL Modular Tool StandSystem. (See Heavy Automation Tool Changer catalog.)
