Station barcode

The station barcode can be manually entered to create a QR code containing information about the tool and controller which can be sent to the IAM QA controller via a scanner.

Parameter

Description

Tool serial number

Serial number of the tightening tool.

Controller serial

Serial number of the tightening controller.

Controller ID

Controller ID of the tightening controller.

Station ID

Station ID of the tightening controller.

Line ID

Line ID of the tightening controller.

Verification program instance no

Tightening program number.

Tool type

Type of tool that will perform the tightening.

Calibration date

Date of tool calibration. Expressed in YYYY-MM-DD.

Target torque

The amount of torque the controller will tighten to and the measurement target.

Control limit

Max allowed deviation from target/tool and used to calculate the CMK.

Verification size

Number of tightenings to perform for the testing of the tool.

Minimum CMK

Minimum value CMK can have to report a verification OK (if CMK is below min value the verification will report NOK). If parameter is empty or set to 0 then the verification will evaluate the result according to the measurement results.

Operator ID required

  • No = QA can start the verification regardless if an operator ID is active or not.

  • Yes = QA cannot start the verification unless an Operator ID is active.
