Chapter 6 Power up and Initial Checks
PAGE 6-4
6-1-3 Initial Data Setting
After completion of the System verification/power on procedure in Section 6-1-1, the system is ready for
the input of data required for the fastening operation. Chapters 7 and 8 give details on the types of
information required and the procedure for entering data into the System. The system will not run until
this data is correctly set-up.
Programming should be performed using the FEC Inc. “AFC3000 Userconsole” software to simplify the
programming operation and to provide a means of creating a back-up file of the Set-up.
NOTE:
Most AFC3000 systems are delivered with application-specific fastening data already setup (if
provided by customer). This set-up data is considered preliminary and should be adjusted according to
actual process / part runs for optimal performance.
After the system is setup with the appropriate data, verify all MFC Controller RUN/BYPASS switches are
set to RUN. Also, check that the
STOP
signal from the external control equipment (PLC, selector switch,
etc.) is set
ON (System will NOT run unless STOP signal is ON)
. Perform the following procedure by
attaching the Display and Programming Unit:
1) Zero Value Check
Press the RESET button on the Display Unit and check that the value displayed on the unit is at
or near zero and that the NG LED (red) is not on.
2) CAL. Point Check
Press the CAL button on the Display Unit and check that the NG LED (red) is not on.
Before performing the following tests, make sure there are no obstructions in the
tool area prior to activating a spindle or other moveable component.
3) Manual REVERSE Check
Set the RUN/BYPASS switch on each MFC Controller as follows:
1. Verify MFC Controller #1 is set to RUN.
2. Set all other MFC Controllers to the BYPASS position.
Press the manual REV button on front of the Keyboard-display Unit. Verify that
spindle #1 is turning in the appropriate direction (opposite the preset direction) and that all
other spindles are motionless. (See NOTE below.)
Next, switch MFC Controller #1 to the BYPASS position. Switch MFC Controller #2 to RUN
and verify spindle #2 reverse operation (reference previous Step).
Repeat this procedure for each MFC Controller/spindle. It is important to complete this step
for each MFC Controller/spindle prior to performing the next step.
After all MFC Controllers are verified individually, ensure that each of the BYPASS switches
are set to the RUN position.
NOTE:
: If any MFC Controller fails to activate the appropriate spindle, correct the situation before
continuing to the next controller. First, check the nutrunner (tool) cables going to the MFC
Controller to verify correct connections to the appropriate components.
4) Manual START Check
Press the START button on the display unit and verify that all connected tools run in the
correct direction until the pre-programmed time elapses, creating a reject. If setup for a multi
spindle system this can only be performed on the Master’s display unit.
Press the RESET button on the Main operator panel to clear the REJECT light and LED
outputs from the MFC Controllers.
5) External Instruction Operation Check
Verify that the equipment will operate with an instruction from the exterior control equipment
(PLC, selector switch, etc.). Use the PLC to perform all of the functions (START, CAL, etc.)
that were manually activated earlier in this Section.
