Chapter 6: Fastening Instructions

Page 6-26

6.6.2 Angle Correction

An Angle Correction preset is available for correcting angle reading disparities during calibration us-

ing a certified master transducer with Angle Monitoring capabilities. Under normal conditions this is

not used. This may be necessary in applications requiring crowsfeet, right angle drives, belt or chain

drives, etc.

Setting range is from -99 to +99 degrees.

See the AFC User Console software manual for additional set-up information.

6.6.3 Reduced Fastening Reaction

This function is mainly for manual or hand held applications where torque reaction during motor stop-

ping is too extreme for an operator to handle. The motor ramp down time is extended allowing a gra-

dual relief of the applied torque to the operator’s hands, thus reducing the affect and fatigue of direct

torque reaction.

See the AFC User Console software manual for additional set-up information.

6.6.4 VariSpeed

Varispeed automatically adjusts the fastening speed based on the type of joint that is being fastened.

This eliminates motor overload conditions typically on very soft joints (high rotational angle) and de-

creases system cycle time. When the system senses a decreasing torque rate (soft joint) prior to

reaching 1

st

Torque/Angle, the motor speed is automatically increased to an optimal speed for that

particular torque rate. When the system senses an increasing torque rate (hard joint) prior to reach-

ing 1

st

Torque/Angle, the motor speed is automatically decreased to an optimal speed for that particu-

lar torque rate. The speed is automatically controlled during the fastening process based on the tor-

que rate.

See the AFC User Console software manual for additional set-up information.

6.6.5 Work Count (Batch Counting)

For applications requiring multiple “Accept” fastenings for a given part before a total “Work”

(work piece) accept is output, the Work Accept count function can be used. This allows an

operator to fasten multiple times, (the number of accepts is programmable) before a total

WORK ACCEPT is output & displayed on the WORK ACCEPT LED.

To use the WORK count function, program the number of desired Acceptable fastenings you

wish in PARM. 1-16 D-NO. 74 (0 – 99 max.). Only acceptable fastenings will be counted

towards the WORK ACCEPT. If a fastening cannot be accepted during the course of the

work piece fastening, the WORK ACCEPT will NOT light, and the input WORK OK RESET

(input B7 on TB1 terminal) will have to be activated before starting the next work piece.

Once the WORK ACCEPT has been activated, it will automatically be reset upon the next

start signal.
