1.3 Functions.
• Fastening function.
The following fastening control methods can be selected for either clockwise (CW) or
counterclockwise (CCW) operation:
Torque Control / Angle Monitoring
Angle Control / Torque Monitoring
The Controller unit has capability for one, two & three step fastening.
Torque rate monitoring in up to 3 areas is available in any configuration.
• Multi-Speed Rundown
The Initial, Freerun, Slowdown, Torque and Reverse speed set-ups provide capability of
multi-speed fastenings for any application.
• Reject / Abnormal Condition Display
When a fastening Reject has occurred the system stops, outputs the appropriate signal
and displays the resultant data in the Keypad-Display. Upon a fastening reject, the unit
will not require resetting prior to the next cycle.
The System will output an abnormal signal when it detects there is a problem (Zero
Check out of limits, incorrect component connection, etc.) within the system itself. The
output will be displayed as a code on the Front Panel Display. Refer to Chapter 9
Troubleshooting for more details. Reset of the system is required on an abnormal
before normal operation can resume.
• Axis Bypass Function
When a PLC Bypass input signal is activated, the Bypass output signal is activated. In
this condition, the spindle will not START, REVERSE, CAL OR RESET.
• Auto Tool Recognition (Smart Tool ID)
The FUSION tools have an EEPROM in the preamplifier that contains tool data specific
for each tool. The Tool type check function reads the information of the tool EEPROM
and compares it to the information of the CONTROLLER unit; any mismatch is reported
as a Tool Type Error Abnormal.
The tool type check is performed during the following times:
1) When the equipment is powered on.
2) When preset data is downloaded from a user console to the Axis unit.
• Torque Recovery
The ability to “hold” torque after fastening allows the system to overcome problems
associated with joint relaxation or “slip stick” friction. After peak torque has been reach,
this function allows the tool to “hold” torque for a pre-programmed number of pulses.
• Batch Counting
The Batch Count function allows multiple fastening accepts to be counted for an overall
“Work Accept” of the work piece.
