This product is the set up soft ware for the GSK/GSKW controller.
GSK • GSK controller can be done manually input of setting data by the controller front, but we will use thissoftware to the input of the configuration data in order to allow easier to understand in a simple.
We can improve simplification of the initial setting input and the maintenance, by the batch transmissionfunction that we use setup software.
You can see the display of torque waveform. Also others will be able to perform reading of history tightening,etc.

The angle until the taking a seat of a screw is measured by pressing a low-speed revolving try button. After that it
revolves by the speed of the 40RPM, and when I reach "the tightening sampling stop torque", stops. The degree ofgeneral rotation angle from a start to the stop of that case is measured.
About 1.5 times more than the degree of rotation angle measured after tightening is reversed and the movement
which slackens a screw is performed, and it's a movement end.

Please establish the "tightening sampling stop torque" of the controller before a low-speed revolving try.
It's 0, so if it's just as it is, defaults don't circulate at low speed.
When or the operation time exceeds 60 seconds when not reaching "tightening sampling stop torque" even if it
revolves 9999 times during a try, a controller takes out an alarm "E33".
The data for which setting is made with a measurement starting button is acquired. When a step is chosen by
movement choice and a measurement starting button is pressed, the setting value and the program originated withthe data a low-speed revolving try gave are sent to the controller.
Please carry out the following program number by a PLC after a measurement starting button is pressed.

The terminology explanation
UNIT
Multiple axes control up to 30 axes can be treated as each axis to independently operate or as a group of several
axes (a unit) to operate together. One interface unit can control the maximum 7 units. At least one controller belongs
to one unit (maximum 30 axes control to one unit), and one input command is assigned to one unit and then all
belonging axes start operation simultaneously. In SIO, different station numbers assigned to each unit.
PROGRAM
Program setting can be established to 30 spindles, 16 programs and 220 steps by default. Before entering program
setting by a setting PC, you can program by the program Max value choice screen and change the number of steps.
1 program starts from a control flag (the presences which are a check zero magnification check) and rated setting,and at most 220 steps of movement can be established. (It depends on setting of the program Max value choicescreen.)But, an end is also handled as 1 step. At least more than 1 block has to be set as a program.
BLOCK
Block is a set of operations in tightening program. It's possible to establish each movement by a setting PC andjudge the set value of the movement in a block by a corrugated image. The rated screw number and zeromagnification check patterns, etc. are added by program setting and a block is inserted.
Starting in the block inserted in program setting starts from rating and indicates settlement to a step of an end. In
automatic operation, one-time program start executes one block. It is also possible to start from the block on the way
by designating the block number. The determination (Block OK/NG) against the operated block is output on the stepin the block end declaration. If “NG“ is determined on either step in the block, it becomes the “block NG” (excluding
the case when there is a retry); the next step will not be executed. After determination output, the program start
initiates the next block.
STEP
Each operation (socket adjusting, pre-tightening, reverse rotation and final tightening), block end declaration, andretry are called steps respectively. Step 1 will be always the block start declaration and the step 2 will be always thescrew number because more than one program is needed in a program. Program is executed from the step 1 andfinished by the end declaration at the final block. On the step of the final block end declaration, the total determination(Total OK/NG) is output. Each axis in the unit operates by step synchronization and the axis in which step has been
complete turns OFF the servo motor and waits for the step completion of other axes. When steps of all axes arecomplete, the next step will be operated.

QL INPUT
In the block where the tightening operation is in progress, if the tightening operation is not within the OK range, “NG”
determination is output in this block. Operator looks at this “NG” determination and needs to retighten the screw
manually. At this time, it is possible to change the determination “NG” to “OK” by inputting the tightening output of
the manual torque wrench to the controller. This input is called a QL input.
RETRY
It is possible to retry (try again) operation if NG occurred in set on the step, if NG occurred on the way from the block
start declaration till the previous step of retry, the operation following the retry will be executed. If NG did not occur,
the operation following the retry will not be executed.
SOCKET ADJUSTING
Used for screw pick up (a socket picks up a screw head) operation before tightening or preventive operation against
socket-engagement after tightening.
PRETIGHTENING
Operation to perform temporary tightening until a screw seats
REVERSE ROTATION
It is operation to unfasten the seated screw by several turns in order to transit to final tightening. (Baking inspectionof the screw by retightening)
FINAL TIGHTENING
It is final tightening operation of screws.

TIGHTENING OUTPUT SETTING
It's possible to send the calendar setting and the result data engine end no. delivers by interface unit connect to PLC
by serial communication. Writing in to an ID controller will be from PLC.
TIGHTENING SUMPLING ACTION
If it revolves and reaches "tightening sampling stop torque" for how to tighten up in one constant speed, themovement I make end is called a tightening sampling action.

This is the movement to measure the length of thescrew. It's possible to acquire sampling data based on the setting made with this movement and make the set value.
It's possible to establish a tightening program simply by this thing. (It's possible to carry out only from a PC.)

SMOOTHING TIGHTENING
While torque reaches "the cut torque" established by final tightening, as the torque rises, the tightening which slows
down step by step is performed.

－ 79 －

AREA CULCULATING
Integrated value of the torque value every 0.5 degree from this total or at the beginning of the temporary closing
movement to the end (the 1Nm unit) is indicated. The indicated value is 1/10 of a calculation result.
END SAME YEAR
When pre-tightening and final tightening end, It rises and finish until it becomes last in the setting torque by 5RPM,
and makes sure that each axis will finish finishing at the same time.
NOBI CORRUGATION
It is tightening corrugation from the measurement starting torque (snagged torque).
