Abstract / scope
ISO 9409-2:2002 defines the main dimensions, designation and marking for a shaft with cylindrical projection as mechanical interface. It is intended to ensure the exchangeability and to keep the orientation of hand-mounted end effectors.
ISO 9409-2:2002 does not contain any correlation of load-carrying ranges.
The mechanical interfaces specified in ISO 9409-2:2002 will also find application in simple handling systems which are not covered by the definition of manipulating industrial robots, such as pick-and-place or master-slave units.
