MES INTEGRATION The Snap-on ControlTech-Link System can be linked to plant level manufacturing execution systems (MES) through Snap-on’s new, cutting-edge controller. The Link system can also be configured as a standalone data collection system, or control system if integration with MES is not desired. TWO MODES OF OPERATION REPORT MODE • The technician uses the wrench as they normally would, but data that is typically stored on the wrench’s internal memory is transmitted to the controller, and then relayed to a database, if desired. This function provides automatic electronic signature and documentation for QA purposes. • When in “Report” mode, the controller allows up to eight tools to report operator activity simultaneously. CONTROL MODE • The controller sends preset torque, angle and batch instructions to the wrench. The wrench becomes a “slave” to the controller and only allows the technician to carry out predetermined presets and jobs. • When in “Control” mode, controller can be linked to as many as 16 torque wrenches, and control as many as 4 wrenches simultaneously. INDUSTRY LEADING FEATURES • The controller’s color display can be used to program P-Sets, groups and jobs. • Torque history can be viewed on the controller’s screen. • For standalone applications, the controller’s on board memory can store up to 10,000 torque events, which then can be saved to a database in CSV format and accessed via the optional Global Manager software. CONTROLLER LINKS TO 16 DIGITAL TORQUE WRENCHES NETWORKING CAPABILITIES The system can be integrated into a customer’s automated network via multiple protocols or through 24 V 1/0 for PLC controlled systems. The controller is delivered with three protocols enabled: Ethernet IP, ACOP and ToolsNET. CONNECTIVITY • The system’s 2.4 GHz ZigBee® radio allows for long range (up to 100 meters, depending upon conditions) communication with low power consumption. • Controllers can be connected in a daisy chain allowing for system expansion. • Utilizes 12 radio channels; a scan feature automatically finds the best channel for the environment, ensuring optimal communication between the torque tools and controller. PROGRAMMABLE • Extremely configurable allowing the customer to build their own process. • Each controller can be programmed with up to 100 parameters, 100 groups of parameters and 100 jobs. • Utility software (included with the controller) can be used to build torqueP-Set (a specific joint or a set of joints all having the same tightening specifications), groups (up to 4 operators each performing their own P-Set) and jobs (a series of steps, up to 35, consisting of P-Sets and or Groups organized in a specific predetermined order). • The controller’s programming screens can be accessed by password or by using a physical key to unlock the device. • The controller has an advanced feature for scanning a customer’s Part Number and/or VIN to determine what operation (P-Set, Group, or Job) is required. • The controller can receive instructions in multiple ways: via serial input (from a computer or barcode scanner), TCP/IP messages via Ethernet connection and via 24 V 1/0 connection. Instructions can then be relayed to the worker through the linked wrench wirelessly via radio. ROBUST AND RELIABLE DATA TRANSFER ControlTech-Link wrenches are powered by ZigBee® wireless communication technology for receiving instruction and transmitting job data to the controller unit. ZigBee is a global, standards-based wireless solution that connects devices in industrial, communications, residential and other critical environments. DURABILITY The rugged, all-steel body is designed to stand-up to industrial use and each Snap-on Controllech-Link Digital Torque Wrench is backed by an Industry-leading 2 year warranty. Approaching Target Target Achieved Over Torque LED INDICATOR LIGHTS Dual, multi-colored side LED indicator lights with configurable settings provide operational guidance. MULTI-SENSORY INDICATORS Ideal for any working condition thanks to audible, tactile and visual indicators. The easy-to-read LCD screen, LED indicator lights, audible beep and handle vibration work together to signal when torque is within the targeted range.
