5375 Western Avenue, Suite A Boulder, CO 80301-2744 Phone: 720.565.9609 [email protected] www.stratom.com www.stratom.com Automatic Robotic ToolChanger This capability enhances current UGV platforms by enabling the downrange remote and automated exchange of an array of IED defeat specific tools. This system will provide the operator with enhanced capabilities, decreased time on target, and increased opportunities to defeat and exploit the threat. No longer will the UGV be required to make multiple trips between the operator and the threat to change out tools. Additionally this capability will increase both the quantity and quality of recovered materials for forensics in support of C-IED operations. ToolChanger Head is fully integrated on robotic arm System Capabilities: Automated Tool Exchange Automatic ID and display of tool types and locations in library Reconfigurable library - up to 5 modular tool stations on rack, mounted behind robot Network connectivity of tools / sensors USB interface available at tool changer head Tool module accommodates range of tools: Data and Power, Power only, Mechanical only Read / write capability to RFID tag on tools (ID, Serial #, cycle count, physical attributes) Expandability of system and smart tools (complex tools performing own computation) Allows for remote tool ejection while downrange and/or manual exchange Strong and secure tool locking mechanism Communicates to tools using network communications Analog and digital channels
