Glossary
Steel ball
snap ring
The steel ring on the tool side,it fits to the locking steel ball during
locking.
Cam
Circular cam attached to the piston that forces the locking balls
outward during the locking process.
Electrical
Module
a wide variety of utility modules that pass electrical power or
electrical signals through Master plate to Tool plate and then to the
end-effector.
End-Effector
A tool installed on a robot to perform a certain function.
adapter
flange
Optional components for the installation between the transition of
robot tool changer to the robot or tools.
Locking ball
Hardened steel ball for locking mechanism with air pressure lost
protection function.The locking cam extrudes the steel ball and
clamps it with the steel ball snap ring on the tool side,Realize the
master plate locking tool plate.
Locking
mechanism
It is used to pull the master plate locking tool plate, which can
ensure reliable locking even in case of air loss until the mechanism
is unlocked normally. The locking mechanism includes locking steel
ball, cam, ball bearing cover, ball race, etc.
Lock Port
Pneumatic port on the Master plate to which air is supplied to Lock
the Master plate to the Tool plate.
Master plate
The half of the Tool Changer that is mounted to a robot. The Master
plate contains the locking mechanism.
Moment
The applied force multiplied by the distance it is from a point
No touch
Design feature of Tool Changer products that allows coupling the
Master plate and Tool plate without physical contact prior to locking.
Piston
Piston located in the Master plate that actuates the locking.
mechanism
Air module
pass air power through the Master plate to the Tool plate and to the
end effector.

Sensor plate
seals the pneumatic chamber and provides mounting points for the
Lock/Unlock switches.
Tool Plate
The half of the Tool Changer to which various tools or end-effector
are mounted.
Tool stand
Stand that holds Tools not being used by the robot. This is usually
supplied by the customer and is specific to the application.
Unlock port
The master plate unlocks the port of the air supply circuit to drive
the master plate to be separated from the tool plate.
Arc
Prevention
makes it possible to couple/uncouple without switching off electrical
module power. Arcing can damage and shorten the life of the
electrical power contacts. Arc Prevention extends the life of all
electrical power contacts by eliminating arcing caused by inductive
loads and high inrush current during coupling/uncoupling.
Coupling
Lock
Discrete
Refers specifically to modules that pass discrete signals and/or
power from Master to Tool. The number of discrete pass-through
signals is limited by either the number of pins on the connector or
the number of pins at the pin block interface between Master and
Tool. Some Discrete modules also provide the user the ability to
control the Tool Changer by providing “Latch” and “Unlatch” signals
to an integrated valve that locks and unlocks the Tool Changer. The
Tool Changer Locked, Unlocked, Ready-to-Lock, and TSI switch
signals can also be provided to the user, these discrete modules
are referred to as Discrete Control/Signal Module.
Ethernet
Switch
An Ethernet network component connecting multiple
communication partners with each other
Fieldbus
A generic term referring to any one of a number of industrial
computer networking standards. Examples include: CAN, Modbus,
and PROFINET.
Gigabit
Ethernet
The interface that can realize 1000mdps transmission rate by CAT6
standard
