Tool Changer
The NTC-E10 is a precise magnetic tool changer with an optional I/O coupling module. The patented design uses electromagnetism which discards the need for pneumatic equipment.
Active Compensation unit
Robots equipped with NAC can reliably measure the force of tool applied on any working surface, achieving consistent contact force without any adaptations of robot paths.

Improved ROI
Change tool automatically and reduce changeover time between operations, enabling one robot to perform multiple tasks and improving the ROI.
- Quick installation
Mount the tool changer on the robot, setup the robot 24Vdc output for tool-release, teach the tool positions and you are good to go.
- No air required
No need for regulators, valves, and tubes. Simply connect both tool changer and tool directly to the tool flange I/O.
NTC-E10, Tool changer
Manual
A manual tool changer however needs an operator to change the tools while the robot is stopped – a process that is more time consuming and interrupts its operation.
Automatic
An automatic tool changer allows users to program the robot to automatically change tools without human interference.
Minimize idle time
An automatic tool changer enables maximum utilization of robots by quickly switching between multiple tools. Thereby, companies can program one robot to perform multiple tasks, improving the return of investment. It further minimizes idle time by allowing a seamless transition between different tools in operation.
I/O Connector available
The NTC-E10 can be further supplied with I/O connectors which enables tool-changing between electrical grippers and tools
- High positional repeatability
- Plug & Play
- Cobot Interface: ISO 9409-1-50-4-M6
- Always-ON Safety

NAC, Active compensation unit
NAC
The Nordbo Active Compensation unit (NAC) assures a constant applied force, regardless of the complexity of the surface curvature, processing speed and orientation of the tool. Sensors inside the product register the contact with the workpiece, keep the applied force constant and enable a soft landing to ensure that the part is not being over-processed while in first contact with the processing tool. The NAC can be used either as an end-of-arm tool on a robot or as a standalone component.
- Consistent quality output
The pressure on the tool flange is actively kept constant on the configured force which results in an consistent and high quality output.
- Increased productivity
Fast changes in curvature are compensated by the stroke of the NAC which enables an higher processing speed and results in an increased overall productivity of your processing application.
- Easy configuration
Pressure and other settings are configurable through the integrated webserver which is accessible over ethernet using your laptop or phone.
Consistent force control
No matter of complexity of the surface curvature, this technology is able to automate both operations sensitive to contact, and applications with various tolerance levels, in a simple, reliable and economical manner, in turn offering our clients a powerful tool to increase competitiveness on the market.
One robot, multiple tasks
The NAC is designed for both as an end-of-arm mount on a robot or as a standalone component. The rectangular shape offers easy and stable installation possibilities. The compact design makes NAC the lightest compensation unit on the market with a total weight of only 2.6 kg.
