Product catalog summary

Introduction
This document outlines the technical specifications and operational guidelines for the RQC/RTP, QC/TP, and RHC series of automatic tool changers, designed for robotic and automation applications. These devices offer high repeatability, rigidity, and load capacity.

Pneumatic Specifications
The QC/TP and RHC series operate within a pressure range of 3-7 bar, while the RQC/RTP series operates at 4-7 bar. They require a double-acting, spring-assist cylinder and a 3-way or 4-way valve for actuation. Air filtration of 40 microns or better is necessary, and air lubrication, though not required, can extend service life.

Temperature and Maintenance
Operating temperature varies with seal type: Buna-N seals function between -35° to 80°C, and Viton® seals for the RHC series handle -30° to 150°C. The expected life is 5 million cycles, extendable to over 10 million with preventive maintenance. The devices are field repairable with available seal repair kits.

Application Restrictions
These tool changers are unsuitable for dirty or gritty environments, machining operations generating chips, or environments with loose particulates.

Robotic and Automation Applications
Ideal for flexible tooling applications using a single robot, these tool changers allow quick changes of end effector tooling and interchangeable fixturing. The RQC/RTP series offers a modular design with up to four optional interfaces for high flexibility.

Technical Features
Each series includes durable locking components, heavy-duty locking spring mechanisms, and optional modules for air, electric, and fluid ports. They are available in NPT, BSPP, and BSPT configurations and can be directly mounted on robot arms using an ISO pattern.

Ordering Information
Detailed ordering information includes module options for air, vacuum, and electrical connections, configurable based on the base model size and mounting side.

Technical Specifications
Specifications for models like RQC-200, RQC-400, RQC-800, and RQC-1200 include payload capacities from 90 kg to 550 kg and maximum moments from 810 Nm to 3390 Nm.
