Robot Work Tool Standards — RWT

Defines the mechanical connection, quick-change structure and force interface between tools and end effectors, ensuring stable tool mounting and changing across robots.

Specifies power, signaling and communication protocols so tools can be addressed, driven and monitored by the robot system.

Gives each tool a unique digital identity and capability description, enabling tools to be discovered, registered and traced.

Abstracts work tasks such as drilling, fastening and grinding into reusable skill definitions and execution specifications.

Unifies the recording format of process, quality and failure data, providing the data foundation for benchmarks and work intelligence.
