This Master thesis report contains the whole development process of an automatic tool changer device for a CNC milling machine. All aspects of an integral development of a product are included in it. The automatic tool changer is methodically developed through a series of stages, finally leading to an in-detail design of a working piece of machinery ready to be built.
For the development of this product, there were almost no restrictions, requirements or guidelines set beforehand. Thus, as part of the development process, state-of-the art studies, user identification studies and requirements identification are included.
The designed machine, named ALTC-1, is specially designed to operate exclusively with a certain machine at the IKDC workshop.
