OUR EXPERTISE – YOUR ADVANTAGES

Safe tool changer
The tool changer ensures maximum safety and meets the requirements of Performance Level d, Control Category 3. This is achieved by a spring-loaded piston, self-locking mechanism, optional sensors and other accessories.

Locking kinematics
A new benchmark for tool changers is set with innovative locking kinematics with locking bolts and extreme rigidity. The extremely flat design guarantees minimal torque load on the robot and allows smaller and more cost-effective robots to be used.

Endless variety
The energy elements of the WER1500 and WER3000 series allow the standardized transmission of pneumatics, hydraulics, electrical signals, power and communication and much more.

THE TECHNICAL FEATURES IN DETAIL

WPR5000 SERIES

ENERGY ELEMENTS

A nearly endless variety of optional energy elements for the transmission of pneumatics, electrical signals and load, communication and hydraulics. The right energy elements for any imaginable transmission scenario.

SPRING-LOADED LOCKING

Completely redeveloped locking kinematics result in maximum safety combined with absolute precision. All parts of the locking mechanism are made of hardened corrosion-resistant steel, both in the stationary and in the loose part.

PRE-CENTERING

Pre-centering using conical centering pins on the stationary part ensures smooth changing between the stationary and loose parts while providing extremely high torsional rigidity.

SAFETY

The WPR5000 series tool changers are extremely safe due to their spring-loaded locking mechanism, which holds the loose part securely to the stationary part even in the event of a pressure drop or an emergency stop.

LOCKING BOLTS

Locking parts made of hardened steel and locking bolts between the stationary and loose parts, which provide a high tightening stroke at maximum forces and torques, are setting a new standard for tool changers.

Integrated pneumatic feed-through

A tubeless connection is possible thanks to the integrated axial and radial pneumatic feed-throughs.

COMPREHENSIVE RANGE OF ACCESSORIES

The WPR5000 series tool changers offer a comprehensive range of accessories that significantly increase the efficiency and user-friendliness of your automated processes. These accessories allow seamless integration into existing robotic applications and ensure maximum reliability and operating convenience.

Piston position sensing

The piston position sensing using 2-point magnetic field sensors enables simple and reliable position monitoring of the locking mechanism. Unlike conventional systems where the sensors are mounted on top of the tool changer, the WPR5000 series features side integration. This maximizes the use of the installation space and minimizes the interference contour of the tool changer.

Programming tips

The programming tips provide an intuitive and simple way to make the teaching and programming process as easy and efficient as possible for the user. In addition, there are also markings on the storage station and on the suspension system for the loose part that significantly simplify the process of setting up the tool changer on the robot.

Always the right transmitter

Energy elements

ENDLESS VARIETY

Energy elements are the most important accessories for tool changers and are essential for the transmission of a wide range of different media from the stationary part to the loose part. All tool changers offer integrated air transfer systems as standard. If larger or smaller cross-sections are needed, energy elements can be used. In addition, almost all media such as load current, signal current, hydraulics and communication can be transmitted using energy elements.
