TSL Modular Tool
Stand System
Product Overview
The ATI TSL (Tool Stand-Large) Modular Tool
Stand System, or TSL, is compatible with larger size ATI Tool
Changers. The Stand is designed for durability, longevity, and maximum
flexibility to fit most customers' applications. The
configurable system allows you to specify tool height, offset, shielding, and
sensing. To save space, the TSL can even store 2 tools on the same post! ATI
TSL Stands are currently in use in major automotive plants across the nation.
Configuration examples are available at the bottom of this page.

Post Module
The ATI TSL Post Module includes a
welded steel vertical post, a base plate, and a vertically compliant
interface for your tooling. The tooling interface compliance is
factory set to your tooling, and can be adjusted during routine
maintenance. The Post Module has many variations that adjust to the
many different tooling requirements of each customer. Height, Tool
Orientation, and Compliance Stiffness can all be specified by the
customer. ATI also offers a configuration of the TSL Post Module that
allows for up to two tools to be mounted on the same post.

Horizontal Extension Module
The TSL Horizontal Extension Module is
an option that provides more tool clearance than the standard TSL Post
Module. It is a steel weldment that mounts directly to the Post
Module and will come equipped with the Compliant Interface for your
tooling. ATI offers a standard extension length of 10". Other
lengths are available upon customer request.

| |
|
|
Sensor Module
The TSL Sensor Module is an option that provides Tool Presence
detection. The standard model mounts directly to the TSL Post Module and
incorporates a proximity switch that senses a face on the TSL Tooling Interface
Bracket. The Sensor Module comes equipped with a collision guard that
protects integrity of the sensor during normal operation. Other sensor
options are available upon customer request.

Debris Shield Actuator
The TSL Debris Shield Actuator (DSA) positions
the Debris Shield in the open or closed position. On single
tool stands, the DSA module can be oriented so that the shield
swings in the vertical OR horizontal plane. The shield will
swing 135 degrees rotationally for most arrangements*. The
Shield Actuator mounts directly to the TSL Post Module, and comes
equipped with a pneumatic powerclamp to provide actuation of the
Shield. The powerclamp comes equipped with integrated position
sensing that uses PNP proximity sensing to detect Shield Open
position. The TSL Debris Shield mounts to the Shield Actuator
and can be positioned in virtually any orientation to accommodate
the specific Tooling arrangement.
* On some dual tool stand configurations,
it is necessary to specify the DSA to swing 90 degrees instead of
135 degrees.

Debris Shield
The TSL Debris Shield mounts to a
tubular arm that in turn is mounted to the Shield Actuator Unit. The
Debris Shield is designed to cover the Tool Changer Tool Side unit
when the Tool is in storage. The Debris Shield provides ample
protection from dust, weld spatter and other debris through the use of
leather side guards. These Side Guards are easily removable and can
be ordered as spare parts for scheduled maintenance.

Tooling Interface Bracket
The TSL Tooling Interface Bracket
mounts directly to your tooling, and is equipped with heavy-duty
alignment pin and bushings that directly couple with the Post Module
Compliant Interface. The Tooling Interface Bracket can come in 2
configurations. A single aluminum plate is offered, and is
designed to mount separately to the side of the tool. The other
configuration is a larger steel L-Bracket that mounts to the tool and
the Tool Changer simultaneously.
