AC050

AC050 (Auto Coupler) is a mechanical connection system that allows for fully automatic tool changing without the need for external energy sources — locking/unlocking activated by the robot’s own movement.

Models

The Auto Coupler is a mechanical connection system that allows for fully automatic tool changing. Locking and unlocking is activated through the robot’s own movement, without the need for external energy sources to perform a tool change.

Advantages

  • Robustness — constructed from high strength anodized aluminum
  • Fully automatic end-of-arm tool changer
  • High repeatability
  • Durable and reliable — provides over 1,000,000 changing cycles
  • Robot movement activates the locking and unlocking mechanism — no external energy required
  • Integrated pneumatic feedthroughs
  • Optional utility module(s) for electric feedthrough
  • Spring actuated pins for additional safety
