TAURUS® C (with setting process monitoring) TAURUS® versions
GESIPA®-Interface
The new interface developed by GESIPA® is based on
an embedded PC system and provides 24 digital in
and out control system ports, Ethernet connection via
a RJ45 connector as well as status LEDs. Connection
ports for a protocol converter supporting all common
bus systems and for external storage media as well as
a USB port for fast data transfer complete the features
of the new interface.
In addition, the GESIPA® interface has a process database
for storing 250,000 of the most current process
data (date, time, rivet position, process curve, analysis,
etc.).
Setting process monitoring is achieved by direct online
analysis of traction force and traction course recorded
during the setting of the rivet. All system components
necessary for this operation are integrated in the tools.
Analysing a setting process takes less than 1 μs.The
results are directly shown by a green or red LED installed
in the tool base and optionally by an acoustic signal.
In addition to this individual analysis the system also
provides collective analysis for the complete workpiece.
The tool stores more than 260,000 setting process data
which can be retrieved at any time. The system also
identifi es failure patterns and memorizes them for failure
analysis and troubleshooting. The tools can be
operated as stand-alone devices or as integrated part of
a customer´s production system via the GESIPA®
interface.
