ATI Industrial Automation has introduced the MC-50 manual tool changer for the manual exchange of robotic tooling. Using an ergonomic lever, the patent-pending MC-50 enables quick changes of robotic end-of-arm tools (EOAT) by hand. This compact tool changer is designed for applications on cobots that support payloads up to 25 kg, as well as small industrial robots with payloads up to 10 kg.

Featuring an ISO 50-mm mounting interface on the master and tool side, the low-profile MC-50 mounts directly to most cobots, enabling integration with many common cobot marketplace grippers and end-effectors.

The MC-50 also includes a safety latch button on the lever to provide secondary locking mechanism for increased safety and prevention of involuntary uncoupling. A variety of electrical and pneumatic utilities for downstream end-effectors are supported through four M5 integrated pneumatic pass-through ports and a mounting flat for optional ATI utility modules.
