Fastening tool controller

Friday, 08 August, 2008 | Supplied by: Hawker Richardson


Stanley Assembly Technologies has introduced the QA Alpha controller for DC electric fastening. The controller has enhanced process capabilities and easy-to-use Embedded Toolbox software. It is also compatible with the full range of Stanley QPM DC electric tools, from 0.6 to 2000 Nm and higher.

Enhanced process capabilities include linking of multiple parameter sets (‘tasks’) in a sequence (‘job’) for tightening different fasteners in a workstation. Assignable inputs and outputs eliminate the need for a PLC in many applications. I/O controller options include 24 V, fieldbus and Modbus TCP. Users may program all of these capabilities via either the controller keypad or the Embedded Toolbox software by connecting with any web browser with JavaScript enabled and Adobe Flash Player installed.

The QA Alpha includes ethernet (for message-based protocols and fieldbus I/O mapping), a USB port (for use with the optional Stanley USB Memory Stick to import/export rundown data, traces and parameter sets; to provide backup/restore; and to perform software upgrades) and two COM ports (one for connecting your computer and enabling remote configuration and one for adding a bar code reader, printer or other serial device).
