The Tool Position System (TPS) from Stanley Assembly Technologies (Cleveland, OH) uses position-monitoring technology to monitor an assembly tool location and set specific control parameters for each fastener.

TPS is available for articulating arms, from 10nm – 4000nm. A sequence of xyz fastener positions can be programmed to ensure assembly to specifications. A socket tray option enables different bolt sizes in a sequence.

The TPS features include color touchscreen panel HMI in 5-in. or 10-in. sizes; PLC with built-in power supply; interface to auxiliary devices; storage of up to 50 part patterns; simple to use "teach mode" for position, parameter, socket position and tolerance band.

For information, contact Stanley Assembly Technologies.
