Product overviewATI Robotic Tool Changers QC-160-E provide automated end-effector exchange with secure fail-safe locking, integrated utility passthroughs and high positional repeatability. Designed for high-cycle industrial automation, the unit reduces downtime and increases flexibility on robotic workcells.
Key features- (5) 3/8 G (BSPP) and (4) 1/2 G (BSPP) integrated pneumatic passthrough ports in a 9.3 kg coupled package
- No-Touch locking technology allows up to 3.0 mm plate separation during locking
- Patented fail-safe locking mechanism yields low piston force and reliable engagement
- Direct mounting to 125 mm ISO wrist to minimize stack height; supports additional mounting patterns
- All locking components manufactured from Rc58 stainless steel for wear resistance
- Two flats on body to mount up to four utility modules without adapters for expanded functionality
- Alignment features in the body for increased torsional strength and improved serviceability
- Integrated lock/unlock sensing for status communication (no separate SIP required)
