VARIOUS TORQUE METHODS
VARIOUS TORQUE METHODS
In this era, various methods have
introduced for controlling the “fastening of a Screw”. It is mandatory to
control a screw because if it goes wrong it can create serious damage.
“ESTIC” has many methods for controlling the Fastening of a Screw. Controlling
the Torque & Angle of a screw is a must because operator who are tightening
the screw many times doesn’t tight the full screw or tight the screw in cross
direction or tight the screw who already tightened etc. So now here is some
full proof controlling methods of ESTIC.
Torque method
In this method, Fastening happens
through “Torque control” until the target torque is reached.
When the target torque is detected, the output spindle is stopped & the OK
signal receives. When the upper limit time is exceeded before the target torque
is detected, the step terminates due to fastening NG.
Torque method angle monitor
In this method, Fastening is performed through “Torque control” until the
target torque is reached and the “Angle” data is monitored concurrently.
When the target torque is detected, the output spindle is stopped and the OK
signal receives. When the upper limit angle or upper limit time is exceeded
before the target torque is detected, the step terminates due to fastening NG.
Angle monitoring is started from the
point at which the ANG start torque is detected. We can put the angle to start
torque with our choice.
Angle method
In this method, Fastening is performed through “Angle control” until the
target angle is detected and the torque data is monitored concurrently.
Fastening is performed from the point at which the ANG start torque is detected
to the target angle. When the target angle is detected, the output spindle is stopped
& OK signal receives.
When the upper limit torque or upper limit time is exceeded before the
target angle is detected, the step terminates due to fastening NG.
Torque or angle method
Basically, this method is the same as the torque method angle monitor. In
the case of this method, when either of the target torque and target angle is
detected first, the output spindle is stopped and a judgment is made.
Torque & angle method
Unlike the torque or angle method,
when both of the target
torque and target
angle is detected, the output the spindle is stopped and a judgment is made. When the upper limit torque, upper
limit angle or upper limit time is exceeded during execution, the step
terminates due to fastening NG.
Yield angle method
This fastening method brings out the tension (clamping force) of a bolt to
the greatest extent. The yield point is obtained from the torque increase rate
(torque rate), fastening is performed for the set angle from this point and
fastening is completed in a stable plastic region initial state.
A sampling of the angle data is started from the point at which the ANG
start torque is detected. When the snug torque is detected, fastening is
performed while calculating the torque rate. Additional fastening is performed
for the target angle from the point at which the target torque rate is
detected, and then fastening is completed.
When the lower limit angle is not reached at the completion of additional
fastening after the detection of the yield point, additional fastening is
performed again until the lower limit angle is reached.
Yield method
Basically, this method performs the same control as the yield angle method.
In the case of this method, when the lower limit angle is not reached at the
completion of additional fastening after the detection of the yield point,
additional fastening is not performed and the step terminates due to fastening
NG.
