Target Angle Limits

With Target angle limits set, it is possible to monitor whether the nut is turned the desired angle during the tightening.

Parameter

Description

Default value

Angle limits

Choose the section of the tightening, in degrees, in which to monitor the angle.

  1. Off: No limits are checked.

  2. From Rundown complete: The monitoring window is set from when the Rundown complete torque is reached.

  3. From torque: The monitoring window is set from when the specified torque value is reached. Torque must be greater than Rundown complete torque.

  4. From First target: The monitoring is set from when First target is reached. This option is not available if TurboTight is chosen.

  5. Auto: The angle monitoring limits are automatically calculated by the controller

  6. Manual: The angle monitoring limits are manually entered.

Off

<From torque>

Torque value from where angle limits are set.

 

<From torque>

Torque value from where angle limits are set.

Angle min

Angle value for lower angle limit

90°

Angle max

Angle value for upper angle limit

720°

Time min

Minimum time (in milliseconds) for the step. Measured from the start of the step.

10 ms

For TurboTight: 0 ms

Time max

Maximum time (in milliseconds) for the step. Measured from the start of the step.

1000 ms

For TurboTight: 40 ms

Position 1-4 are valid if the target is torque. Position 5-6 are valid if the target is angle.

The parameter Measure angle at can have different values. The parameter is only available when angle monitoring is turned on for the tightening program used. By default the angle is measured at Max angle value. The possible values of the parameter are listed in the table below.

Description

Value at peak torque

Measures the angle at the highest torque value.

Max angle value

Measures the highest angle during tightening.

Value at shutoff

Measures the last angle value before entering the break step.
