  "summary": "The QC-11 is a compact pneumatic robotic tool changer sized for collaborative arms, with a 16 kg suggested payload, 0.01 mm repeatability and a fail-safe locking mechanism that tolerates 1.5 mm plate separation. One flat accepts optional electrical pass-through modules (EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT, PROFINET or discrete signals), and interface plates adapt it to different robot bolt patterns.",
