Stanley Assembly Technologies PSI Brochure

Product catalog summary

Overview
Stanley Assembly Technologies, a division of The Stanley Works, specializes in advanced threaded fastening solutions for the global industrial assembly market. Their tools are designed to enhance error-proofing and process control in assembly operations.

Product Offerings

PSI-Q & Qc Process Qualifier: Provides error-proofing and batch counting of fasteners.
TVM (Torque Validation Module): A robust torque transducer for accurate torque readings, compatible with various torque tools.
Intelligent Air Tools: Includes the AM/A, AH, AT, and AP series, each designed for specific applications and torque ranges.

Key Features

Angle Control and Monitoring: The AM/A series tools feature Absolute Position Sensor (APS) for enhanced torque and angle monitoring, providing visual feedback with green or red lights to indicate cycle status.
Torque Control Strategies: Various control strategies such as Torque Control with Angle Monitoring (TC/AM) and Torque Control with Pulse Monitoring (TC/PM) ensure precise fastening.
PSI-C Controller: Manages a range of transducerized pulse and impact tools, offering features like batch counting, process control I/O, and network connectivity.

Tool Specifications

AH & AM Pulse Tools: Offer high torque with minimal reaction, using hydraulic or mechanical mechanisms for energy transfer.
AP Series Impact Tools: Feature internal torque transducers for smooth, high-speed performance with minimal torque reaction.
AT Series Heavy-Duty Impact Tools: Provide powerful performance for demanding applications, with integrated control and reporting capabilities.

Control Strategies
The document outlines control strategies for tightening threaded fasteners, emphasizing torque control with pulse monitoring (TC/PM) and angle control with torque monitoring (AC/TM). These strategies help detect errors like rehits and cross-threaded fasteners, ensuring the final torque and pulse count or angle are within set limits for an OK cycle.

PSI-C Controller
The PSI-C controller manages the fastening process by stopping the tool upon reaching the programmed torque or angle target. It offers features like batch counting, process control I/O, and network connectivity for numerical results. Options include multiple parameter sets, data storage, and plant integration capabilities.

Tool Series
The document describes different tool series, including AH (Hydraulic Pulse), AM (Mechanical Pulse), AP (Pin-clutch Impact), and AT (Twin Hammer Impact). Each series offers unique benefits, such as the AM series' higher power-to-weight ratio and reduced maintenance costs due to its mechanical pulse mechanism.

Innovations
The AM/A series introduces the Absolute Position Sensor (APS) for enhanced torque and angle monitoring, providing real-time feedback with visual indicators for cycle status. This series also features tool memory for calibration and plug-and-play operation.

Additional Features
The document mentions the PSI-Q and Qc Process Qualifier for error-proofing and batch counting, and the Torque Validation Module (TVM) for accurate torque readings traceable to N.I.S.T. standards.

Conclusion
Stanley Assembly Technologies continues to innovate in the field of industrial assembly, offering a comprehensive range of tools and solutions designed to improve efficiency, accuracy, and error-proofing in fastening operations.
