Strategy

Available tightening programs.

TurboTight: No additional tightening behavior is used as default. Only target values are used.

Quick step: Adds an initial tightening step to reduce pre-load scatter.

Two step: Adds a pause between the first and final tightening step to further counteract short-term relaxation effects.

Three step: Tightens to a defined First torque value, then loosens the screw and immediately retightens it to Target torque or Target angle.

Wrench - production: Tightening strategy to use with an ST Wrench.

Wrench - quality: Strategy used for quality test of tightenings with an ST Wrench.

Rotate: Rotates the spindle a specified speed and angle.

External result: presents a predetermined tightening result instead of measured torque/angle.

Multistep: Tightening strategy consisting of multiple configurable steps, with restrictions and monitors.

Loosening limit

If this parameter is set to a value greater than 0, Power Focus checks if a negative torque exceeding this value is applied during the tightening. In that case, the overall status of the tightening is marked as Not OK. This function is started when the wrench reaches the Cycle Start (before starting the tightening, a loosening is allowed and does not produce results). This function is used to detect unwanted loosening at the end of a tightening (for instance, when the wrench is disengaged from the joint).

0 Nm

End cycle time

It is applied when torque goes below the cycle start and gets to the third percentage value set on the STwrench LEDs.

Defines the speed during the soft start.

Time

Defines the Soft start duration.

Angle

Defines the target angle to turn the spindle for the bolt to enter the thread.

Torque max

Defines the upper torque limit during the soft start. If Torque max is exceeded, the tightening is considered NOK.

Rehit detection

Early: Terminates the tightening immediately when an already tightened screw/bolt is detected. The tightening will be considered as NOK. Requires that Soft start is activated.

Complete: Even though an already tightened screw/bolt is detected, the tightening is not terminated until all tightening steps have been executed. The tightening will be considered as NOK. To make a rehit detection when Soft start is not activated, the Rehit detection Complete option must be selected. Rehit detection Complete will not terminate the tightening until all tightening steps have been executed. The tightening will be considered a rehit if the speed fails to reach half the rundown speed, a rehit error is then indicated.

Off: No rehit detection will be performed.

Combination Soft start = Off and Rehit = Early is not allowed.

Positive

The TrueAngle compensation can detect tool rotation and make angle compensations within the set limits.

Negative

The TrueAngle compensation can detect tool rotation and make angle compensations within the set limits.

Use attachment tuning

Attachment tuning is selected by radio buttons.

Gear ratio

Socket rotation speed = Tool speed / gear ratio.

Efficiency tuning

For example 0.9 means 10% efficiency loss.

High-speed rundown

The rundown step can be done in high-speed in order to minimize the time, without overshooting. This is achieved by letting the tool run at a higher speed for a specified angle length. When the angle has been reached, the speed will change to the lower speed specified in Rundown speed parameter. Only available for SRB tools.

Length: Default 3600°, max 99999°

Speed: Tool max speed must be higher than Rundown speed (rpm).

Rundown speed can be set to either Max or Manual.

If Rundown speed is set to Manual; enter the tool speed in rpm.
