SCHUNK Inc. Product
The CMS manual changing system allows quick, precise robotic tool changing without tools or connections to change-over. Change pneumatic and electric end affectors easily with a broad offering of feed-through modules available from SCHUNK.

The manual change system (CMS) consists of a change head (CMS-K) and a change adapter (CMS-A). Closing the hand lever provides a form-fit lock that is free from play between the change head and the change adapter using a pin and without the need for any additional tools. Opening the hand lever unlocks the system, allowing the change adapter to be removed. End effectors can be supplied with compressed air or vacuum via integrated pneumatic feed-throughs. In addition, there is an identically constructed variant without pneumatic feed-throughs and without a monitoring option (CMS-B). In both product variants, the tool can be supplied with other media such as electrical signals or fluids through optional modules.
