Take complete control of the assembly process One controller can store as many as 32 parameter sets of different tightening strategies. Each parameter set holds as many as eight complete strategies to match the needs of any tightening application.

From Easy to Expert The Wizard gives Easy Method control directly from the key pad on the controller. Users can also take advantage of advanced programmability using Configuration Editor or FTB software with a PC.

Paramater Sets With as many as eight strategies per set, users can match a parameter set to any application. Store 32 Sets - One Alpha Controller can store and give users access up to 32 pre-programmed parameter sets.

Slow Seek Easy Method Prevents crossthreading or rehitting the previously secured fasteners.

Pre-torque Custom Method Overcomes relaxation of the joint from crosstalk on multiple spindles.

Condition the Fastener Custom Method Reduces frictional variation between the fastener and mating threads on fixtured applications requiring exacting precision.

Strategies Each strategy consists of a complete set of parameters to control and/or audit torque, angle, time, speed, and power. Each strategy may advance to the next, invisible to the operator, or pause the tool briefly to manage direction changes, multiple spindle synchronization, or relaxation and crosstalk effects.

Adaptive Tightening Control gives each tool the flexibility to adjust for different joint designs and variable part tolerances. Two fasteners may have the same size and torque specifications, but different joint characteristics (e.g, hard vs. soft). Without ATC, either torque overshoot or long cycle times result. ATC improves torque capability and reduces cycle time by automatically adjusting to joint variations— minimizing the number of tools and set-ups.
