Ready for the future

EMDEP Tightening System is working around the world with more than one model of tightening controllers.
So, we can guarantee an easy transfer to other models according to customer needs.

We support next models of tightening devices:

Positioning system

Reaction time. Every movement is codified and transferred in a faster way improving the efficiency of the operations.

Accuracy. EMDEP has created a special algorithm in order to improve the accuracy of the positioning system. Now, targets with short distance between themselves can be detected in a better way.

Manufacturing modes

Sequential Test

It is the predefined mode. All the wires and tightening operations are done in a sequential mode and in a predefined order.

Random Mode

In this mode, the operator has different wires and selecting one and touching with the wire in a point, the system automatically identifies the wire and enables the appropriate sequence.

Mixed Mode

Modes 1 and 2 can be combined.

Multiple Test Options

EMDEP Tightening System integrates all possible required test options in addition to the tightening operations. We can differentiate between the tightening and electrical test options:

Tightening Test options

Allow a maximum number of tightens by position
Abort the test automatically by digital input
Possibility of password protection for loosening process or aborting the process
Possibility to require the presence of the tools into the tray when starting the process

Test Modes

Possibility to require the presence of the tools into the tray when finishing the process
Standard mode. Allows to assembly and tighten the wires
Rework mode. Allows to loosen the nuts only in the programmed positions

Electrical Check

EMDEP Tightening System checks electrically all the wires involved in the tightening process:

Verification of box presence and lock of it to avoid system cheats
Continuity assurance of the wire before and after being tightened
Continuity assurance of all the wires after finishing the process
Detection of extra wires
Detection of misallocated wires

Detection of the presence of wires
Detection of wire shrink

Clear Guidance to the Operator

On-board Guidance

LED for current wire pick-up box
LED for current nut pick-up box
LEDs for tool management
LEDs for both ends of the wire (from and to)

Smart tool management

The tool manipulation has been studied and the algorithm indicates the changes of the tool in the best moment to maximize the efficiency.

Multi-language interface.

Easily translation to new languages. Unicode support: charsets such as Latin, Cyrillic, Hanzi, Kana, Hanja, Arabic, Hebrew, Greek, Armenian, Georgian…

On-screen guidance

Clear guidance on operation to perform
Clear instructions to solve errors
Mirror of tightening controller screen
Displaying of the current position of the spindle
Displaying the status of the tool tray
Displaying of complete information of the tightened and pending positions for current harness
Overall of test details: harness id, box, reference and start time.

Auto-rescaling to the monitor resolution.

Software detects the resolution and organize information presented in the monitor according to that.

Data Analysis

A complete new analysis suite has been created in Emdep Tightening System. Here we can see main features of the new data analysis app:

Handling of data from several sites, projects, lines or stations
Several filter options available
Built-in analysis tools
Production reports
- Amount and rate of the passed harnesses
- Amount and rate of the rejected harnesses
- Average and deviation time for passed harnesses
- Average and deviation time for rejected harnesses
Harness traceability
- Track of a specific harness along with the details of all the tightening operations
Process capability
- Statistical values per cycle: average and standard deviation
- Statistical values per cycle: average and standard deviation
- Six-sigma control value per cycle: Cp, Cpk, Pp, Ppk
- Run chart
- Histogram
Error analysis
- Pareto chart based on errors per cycle
- Pareto chart based on errors per position
Output of filtered data to CSV format for analysis using third-party tools
Output of filtered data to PDF format
