CoboShift Toolstand Kit and Brackets Review: Specs, Price and Applications
The CoboShift Toolstand Kit, Toolstand Table Bracket and Toolstand Tool Attachment Bracket from Robot System Products form the parking system for tools used with CoboShift manual and automatic tool changers. They are supplied in North America by Essential Robot Products.
The table bracket fixes the stand to the work table, the tool attachment bracket holds each tool in a defined position, and the kit combines them so a cobot can park and pick up tools reliably.
Quick Verdict
The missing piece for automatic tool changing: a defined, repeatable home position for every CoboShift tool.

Design and Operating Principle
An automatic tool changer only works if each tool waits in exactly the same place. The toolstand provides that fixed reference, so the cobot can approach, lock and lift the tool without adjustment.
The table bracket anchors the stand rigidly to the work surface, and tool attachment brackets locate each tool. With manual changers, the stand still provides a tidy, safe place to keep tools.
A modular kit allows the number of tool positions to match the cell.
Integration and Selection
Mount the stand within reach of the cobot and away from traffic, and fit a bracket for each tool. Teach approach and departure paths for every position.
Combine with tool presence sensing if available.
