SCHUNK SWS-007 quick-changer handles weights of up to 16 kg

The pneumatically actuated SCHUNK SWS-007 is a quick-change system that enables process-reliable exchange of grippers and other tools of up to 16 kg at the robot front end. 
 
It integrates many functional features directly into the module. Particularly compact quick-change solutions are possible here. This helps compressed air supply of actuators and tools to be carried out either laterally or axially via five integrated pneumatic feed-throughs. The sensor slots for magnetic switches which are integrated into the module with no requirement of external sensor adapters for monitoring status. 
 
With a special mounting surface, modules from the SCHUNK robot accessories program, for instance electrical feed-throughs are optionally combinable with the tool changer. Using a storage rack, or by 
alternatively using socket and pin, the quick-change adapter can be deposited in a particularly space-saving way in tool stations. 
 
These two options are integrated in the adapter. The screw connection diagram corresponds to ISO 9409-31.5-4-M5. Moreover, a centering collar plate according to ISO-A31.5 is available, and the module can be used on most robots without needing an additional adapter plate. The patented ‘no-touch locking-system’ facilitates a reliable tool change even if the head and the adapter are up to 2.5 mm apart from one another. In addition, the locking system is equipped with a patented self-locking system, which ensures a process-reliable connection between head and adapter even in the case of a sudden power failure.
