Abstract
Abstract Open source machine tools (OSMT) have the potential to democratize manufacturing by lowering access barriers, enabling new modes of value creation. However, there is still a lack of an open source automatic tool changer (ATC), due to its inherent complexity in terms of mechanical design and control. An ATC system is crucial for automating manufacturing processes that require multiple operations with different tools for a complete production step. This paper describes the design of a fully open source ATC concept, detailing its mechanical design and control schematic.
