1.1 Safety 1.1.1 General The integrator installing the tool changer into the system must follow the safety demands stated in standards and provisions applicable in the country where the tool changer system is to be installed. The products are all prepared for CE-certification. The user of the Robot System Products tool changer is responsible that law and directives applicable in respective countries, with regards to safety, are followed.
The combination of RSP’s hose packages with the swivel with integrated tool changer does in addition significantly reduce the design and installation times for the system integrator.
