T|AM – Manual Tighten to Torque or Angle

This step guides the user until either target torque or target angle are reached. The target torque and the target angle must be set to > 0.

Parameter

Description

Target torque

Must be > 0.

Target angle

Must be > 0.

End cycle time

Starts when the torque goes below the Rundown complete torque after reaching the 3rd percentage.
Default value: 0.1 sec. Minimum value: 0.1 sec. Maximum value: 5 sec.

Ratchet time

Starts when the torque goes below the Rundown complete torque without reaching the 3rd percentage value. This allows the operator to release the torque for a while and recharge during the tightening operation.
Default value: 5 sec. Minimum value: 0.1 sec. Maximum value: 30 sec.

Torque correction coefficient

When extensions are used, the wrench measurement might be compensated to show a more accurate torque value. To calculate the correction coefficient, please refer to How to calculate the Torque Correction Coefficient.
The parameter is stored in the RFID TAG of the end fitting tool.

When extensions are not used, Torque correction coefficient = 1.

Angle correction

When extensions cause additional wrench bending, the wrench angle measurement can be compensated to show a more accurate angle value.
To calculate the correction value, please refer to How to Calculate the Angle Correction.
The parameter is stored in the RFID TAG of the end fitting tool.

When extensions are not used, Angle correction = 0.
