1-2 Features
The Handheld Nutrunner is a flexible fastening tool equipped with a compact, high-performance
servomotor developed especially for this product. Like the usual high-performance nutrunner system, it
is designed to accommodate various tool models and provide useful functions for error proofing, data
management, data communication, etc.
☆ Compact Design
The controller operates on single-phase 100V ~ 240V, making installation work related to the
primary power source easy.
☆ Fastening Functions
Fastening can be performed by the torque method or the angle method. An angle monitor and a
torque rate monitoring function are provided as functions for error proofing. A fastening counting
function can be used as an additional error proofing method.
☆ Data Communication
An RS-232C interface is incorporated to enable data communication with external devices.
A dedicated Ethernet connector that enables communication with a PC (for dedicated software) is
provided. Connectors enabling sending of result data to a PLC or other external device are also
provided.
Optional fieldbus interfaces that allow fastening data to be sent of over the same fieldbus connection
to the PLC, can be installed. (ie. Ethernet I/P, Devicenet, Profinet, CCLINK, etc.)
☆ Motor
A permanent magnet High Speed DC motor provides for improved fastening control. The sealed
design of the motor provides greater protection from contamination without generating excess heat.
The resolver is uniquely designed to withstand harsh environments and provide high-resolution
control / angular feedback signals.
☆ Preamplifier
Quality control of the tool torque transducer is accomplished electronically (digitally) through the
EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory) in the preamplifier. During
factory setup of the torque transducer, the unit is Dead Weight and Dynamically tested against
Standards that are certified and traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology.
The resultant data is then programmed into the preamplifier where it is stored on non-volatile
EEPROM. The preamplifier also contains the “Smart Tool ID” system that allows automatic tool
recognition and protects against misapplication of tools onto the wrong controller or set-up.
☆ Self-Check Function
Each time a fastening operation starts, a calibration check of the torque transducer is performed to
check functionality including those of the controller and the cables to prevent abnormal fastening.

Chapter 1 Outline
Keep in mind that the fastening tool is a strain gage based instrument and, although it has been
designed to withstand sudden shock, repeated shock (over time) could damage some components.
Therefore, support devices must be used whenever practical to ease in handling and operation of the
Fastening Tool.
☆ Fastening
Avoid fastening beyond the full scale torque. Do not use a duty cycle (the ratio of the tool “On” time
to Tool “Off” time) higher than 50%, even when the torque is below the full scale value.
☆ Cable Connection
☆ Installation Environment
• Controller units must be located a minimum of 600 mm from high transient voltage sources such as
transformers, motor starters, AC inverters and AC contactors. If it cannot be avoided, the units must be
properly shielded.
DO NOT use at the following locations.
• Areas under direct sunlight.
• Areas where the environmental temperature is out of the 32 °~122°F (0° ~ 45°C) range.
• Areas where the relative humidity is below the 20% range.
• Areas where the relative humidity is above the 90% range.
• Areas where the temperature changes quickly, which may cause condensation.
• Areas where conductive powder, oil mist, saline, or organic solvents exist.
• Areas that have corrosive or combustible gases.
• Areas that have strong electric or magnetic fields.
• Areas where a strong vibration or shock could be transmitted directly to a Controller unit or tool.
☆ Static Electricity
Since the controller is composed of many electronic components including surface mount devices
(SMD), please be aware of static electricity. Excessive static electricity may occur at dry locations,
therefore we recommend the operator to touch grounded metal before operating the front panel
operation switches to discharge the static electricity charged inside the human body.
PAGE 1-5
Chapter 1 Outline
☆ Cleaning
Do not use any organic solvents, such as thinner, to clean a Controller or a tool. The solvent could
melt the surface paint, display overlay or penetrate inside and cause damage. A cloth dampened
with alcohol or warm water should be used to lightly wipe the components.
☆ Noise
The controller is made up of electronic components and sensors – therefore, make sure there is no
equipment that will generate strong electrical noise in the surroundings.
Make sure that the cables that connect the controller and the tool are not placed inside a duct, etc.,
together with a power source line or other wiring.

[Input Signals]
STOP: EMERGENCY STOP SIGNAL PIN No.: TB1-1
While this signal is input (“ON” state), the controller is put in the STOP state.
In the STOP state, the output signals are cleared and the fastening operation cannot be started.
When the STOP signal is input during fastening operation, spindle motion stops and I/O will be
disabled. The fastening result data immediately prior to stoppage will be held.
The ON/OFF input state of this signal can be selected by the system option 1 [SYS 033].
When the ON contact is selected, the signal must be input to put in the STOP state. When the OFF
contact is selected, the signal must be INPUT (NC) to run a fastening cycle.
SELF CHECK: TORQUE TRANSDUCER AUTOMATIC CHECK SIGNAL PIN No.: TB1-6
When this signal is “OFF” (or unconnected) at the time of a START signal input, the zero voltage level
and CAL voltage level of the torque transducer is automatically checked before the fastening cycle
begins.
If the automatic check of the torque transducer is not required, turning “ON” this signal at the time of a
START signal input, will cause this test not to be performed.
Once a Self Check is completed, the unit holds the check value until control power is turned off or
another check is performed.

NOTE: If the HFC3000 controller has data programmed already, it should be considered preliminary and
be adjusted according to actual process / part runs for optimal performance.
After the system is setup with the appropriate data, verify the controller has not been placed in BYPASS
[PROG} on display. Also, check that STOP is not displayed on the front display. If it is, the Stop signal is
being input from the external control equipment (PLC, selector switch, etc.) OR the system STOP state
has been programmed to require a STOP signal input before running [SYS Data No. 033].
Perform the following procedure from the front panel of the controller:
Before performing the following tests, make sure nothing is in the area of the
nutrunner tool prior to activating a spindle or other moveable component.
▪ Rotate the tool REVERSE ring switch so that the LED status lights flash yellow (Reverse
Mode). With the tool output not touching any part and held in the open air, pull the tool start
trigger and confirm the tool rotation is turning in the appropriate direction (opposite the
parameter preset fastening direction).

①Starting switch: When the switch is turned ON (by pulling), the tool output square rotates for fastening
operation.
When half way pulled in, initial speed is maintained (even if higher free-run speed is
programmed). However, if the initial time is set to 0 (seconds), this function is
cancelled.
When the switch is released during fastening (while rotating), the fastening (rotation)
stops. If the switch is released before switching to the 2nd speed, judgment is not
performed and therefore fastening results will not be generated. If the fastening
process reaches 2nd Speed and the switch is released, the rotation is stopped,
judgment is made and the data is output.
For normal fastening operation, continue to hold the switch in until fastening is
completed.
②Reverse switch: Used to switch between CW and CCW (Reverse) rotation
When switched to reverse rotation, the orange judgment LED flashes rapidly.
Reverse rotation operation is performed when using the start switch while in this mode.
When the start switch is released during reverse rotation, the operation stops.
* When loosening a fastener that has already been fastened over 5N・m, the default
REVERSE HIGH TORQUE LIMIT setting will stop the reverse operation as a safety
Caution precaution.
This can be changed in the setting of the fastening REVERSE HIGH TORQUE LIMIT

ANGLE CONTROL)
•Snug Torque
The high limit value of Snug torque is detected when Snug Torque Detection is set.
•Torque Inhibit
The Torque Inhibit high limit value after the start of the fastening operation is set. This can be used for
fastening in cases where the starting torque is higher than your targeting torque. The fastening operation
is ended when, during operation within D-No. 205 [Torque Inhibit Angle], the start torque inhibit high limit
value is exceeded.
Additionally, from the start of fastening to the point at which D-No. 205 [Torque Inhibit Angle] is attained,
torque-related set values besides the starting torque inhibit high limit are ignored.

The 2nd Time high and low limit values from 1st torque or the 1st angle to the end of fastening are set.
In regards to the time low limit, if the fastening operation reaches its target in a time less than the time set in
the low limit, a low limit reject will occur. If the 1st and 2nd time high limit is exceeded during the fastening
operation, the operation is stopped and a High Limit reject will occur.
When 2 or 3 steps is selected as the number of fastening steps, the delay times between fastening steps
are not counted as part of 1st time and 2nd time. Additionally, the self-check function executed before the
start of fastening operation is not counted as any cycle time.

Chapter 6 Fastening Operation
●Rate Check
Three torque rate areas capable of judging the rise of torque vs. angle (slope) can be used to monitor the
fastening operation.
A rate start torque (angle) and a rate end torque (angle) set the boundaries of each area and the torque
slope (slope of the torque vs. angle) between the two points is calculated to make the judgment once the
end point is reached. (Example: 25N•m÷100deg=0.25N•m/deg).
The fastening operation is ended when the measurement value of each rate falls outside the the high and
low limit ranges.
The start torque (angle) and end torque (angle) of the respective rates can be set freely without any relation
to the order of the rates and the set values of the other rates.

•If the rate start torque (angle) cannot be detected during fastening operation, the rate judgment
will not be performed.
•Under the following conditions, the torque (angle) at the end of fastening is judged as the rate
end torque (angle).
•If the set values are set so that rate start torque (angle) > rate end torque (angle).

•If the rate end torque (angle) cannot be detected during the fastening operation.
. When the increase in angle from the measurement start point to the end point is “0” deg, the
operation varies depending on the firmware version.

Additionally, the Fastening Current Limit value (D-No.523) limits the maximum value of the current
during the fastening operation. If a value lower than the full scale current is set, the motor current
during the fastening process will not exceed the value set as this current limit. The current limit value is
used to protect the motor during the execution of torque recovery (if used) (which is an after-fastening
operation). When the current limit is exceeded, the fastening is stopped and the abnormal state signal
A05-01 “Servo Reply Error” is output.

3. For a 2 step fastening, the system will fasten to Standard Torque/Angle using 2nd Speed during the
specified 2nd Time limits. Standard Torque/Angle must be reached within the 2nd Time Low/High Limits or
a reject will occur. The fastening result will output as REJECT (NG). (The time judgment cannot be
disabled.)
4. If the 2nd Torque/Angle is detected before the Standard Torque/Angle, the speed is switched from 2nd
Speed to 3rd Speed.
For a 3 step fastening, the system will fasten to Standard Torque/Angle using 3rd Torque Speed during the
specified 2nd Time Limits. Standard Torque/Angle must be reached within the 2nd Time Low/High Limits or
a reject will occur. The fastening result will output as REJECT (NG). (The time judgment cannot be
disabled.)
・ If D-No. 109 [2nd Torque] is set to 95 ~ 100% of D-No. 103 [Standard Torque], the fastening speed
is automatically set to 3rpm after the detection of the 2nd torque.

Besides the standard fastening process provided in Parameter 1 ~ 64, two types of sequence operation modes
are provided which, are available for accommodating applications requiring more complex processes.
64 fastening parameters can be used to program up to 8 stages in a fastening sequence.
Batch sequence: Multiple parameter settings are used and at each stage, an operation each requiring a
separate start signal, is repeated for the number of times designated by a “Count.”
Continuous sequence: Up to 8 stages of operation, each with a selectable parameter setting are executed in
order. A single start signal must be sustained and held until the selected sequences are completed.
The designation of a Sequence Operation Mode other than “0: Standard Operation” shall designate the use of a
sequence setting (with Work Select No. = Parameter No.)

In regard to the fastening curves, the torque vs. angle (180deg) curve of is stored in the “nracd”
format, which is dedicated for use with the HFC3000 User Console.
The fastening curve displayed on the “Curve Monitor” of the HFC3000 User Console can be stored
in a TSV format.
Please refer the <<HFC3000 User Console Instruction Manual>> concerning curve display using
the HFC software.
● Fastening Results
The fastening results are stored in the “RESULT” folder, which is generated automatically. Inside
the “RESULT” folder, folders, each with a name expressing the year and month, such as “201309,”
are generated automatically and a folder is automatically generated in the manner of “201310,”
“201311,” “201312,” etc., at each turn of the month or year.
Inside the “201309” folder, the following file is stored at the end of the fastening operation.

When the remaining capacity of the memory card falls to no more than 1%, the CF ACCESS LED
lights (orange). The storage capacity of the memory card can be checked from the controller
display.
●Procedures for Confirming the Storage Capacity of the Memory Card
1. The controller must be in a state (Bypass) where it cannot be started by external control will not be
running. (The READY signal should be is “ON.”)
2. Use the “◄” and “►” buttons on the controller display until the System Setting Mode is indicated as
[SYS].
3. Use the “▲” and “▼” buttons on the controller until “400” is indicated at the COUNT/D-No. Display.
4. The value indicated at the upper stage of the display is the storable capacity (units: MB) of the CF
memory card. (For firmware version 1.209 or earlier: (Units: %))
・ When the CF ACCESS LED lights RED, storage into the memory card is
discontinued to prevent mismatch of the stored contents of the fastening
Caution results and the fastening curves.
CF ACCESS

Note: All instructions above that show “AFC1500” would be labeled “HFC3000” for the HFC3000 setup. I/O
addresses are not actual and should reflect the fixed I/O layout as shown in section 9-1-1 Fieldbus I/O Layout.
Note: The above information contained in this procedure are meant for REFERENCE ONLY when configuring
an FEC Ethernet I/P interface using FEC HFC3000 User Console Software, FEC HFC3000 Nutrunner
System, Rockwell Automation RSlogix 5000 software and Allen Bradley CompactLogix L32E hardware. Actual
application configuration may differ from this set-up depending on the PLC chosen for the application.

Data from the PLC register is sent to the ‘Part ID’ buffer in the HFC controller using the messaging data write
command.
PAGE 9-22
Chapter 9 Fieldbus I/O Interfaces
A ‘Write_Tag’ needs to be added to the ‘Controller Tags’ for data to be sent from the PLC to the FEC HFC Controller.
(Such as part ID Data) This data when received by the FEC HFC Controller will be ‘Married” with the fastening result
data so that the fastening data would now contain the part ID number providing a ‘birth history’ for the part being
fastened.
The “Write_Tag” contains the configuration of the message transfer. A MSG command (Message command in the
PLC logic) must be used in conjunction with a ‘Write_Tag’ to send data. In the case below, ‘VIN_Number_Write’ tag
has been setup and configured (following pages)
PAGE 9-23
Chapter 9 Fieldbus I/O Interfaces
Below are the properties which must be setup for the Message Configuration of the Write_Tag.
(Right Click in MSG command)
Note: The FEC HFC Controller will only take a maximum of 32 Bytes for the Write_Tag (Part ID data) configurable
(between 0-32 bytes) in the HFC3000 software for the Fieldbus Message Setup. So an instance of “1” is all that is
required in the above setup for WRITING data using the Message Command.
PAGE 9-24
Chapter 9 Fieldbus I/O Interfaces
The MSG message command initiates the message data to be sent or received. The ‘Write” tag sends the data to the
device connected, and the ‘Read’ tag retrieves the data from the connected device.
In the example above, the Write MSG command takes place at or near the start of the machine cycle before the FEC
controller has been issued a START command. (The FEC HFC Controller, must receive the Write Data before the
cycle START is given (before the cycle is started). Once received, the data is buffered and will be used until new
message data is received or the “ID DATA CLEAR” Input signal is enabled (See Input signals). (The ID data received
by the FEC HFC Controller will be married with the fastening data and will continue to use the same message data it
receives until new data is sent or the ID Data Clear signal is turned on. Care must be taken so data is not recorded with
the same ID data in that case)
The “Read” Tag in the example above is shown happening AFTER the FEC fastening is completed. Once fastening
is completed, the MSG Read command can be performed and the fastening result data will be read into the PLC.

9-3-6 System Area PLC Handshake
Below is an example of CC-Link configuration settings made by GX Developer software and how memory is allocated. This
configuration has 3 sets of HFC3000 controllers connected with 4 occupied stations / 8 extended cyclic cycles. (I/O 896 Points,
Message 72 Words)
In the case of the first HFC3000 System (1) (shown in the table above), the PLC program is set so that when the
888th (378h) bit (“Initial Data Processing Request”) in the (CC-Link Reserved) system area (X area) is turned “ON”,
the output at the 888th (378h) bit (“Initial Data Processing Complete”) of the system area (Y area) is set “ON”.
(Note: See pages 8 & 14 for CCLINK handshaking signal location)
Since the X/Y starting address of (System 1) is configured to start at X100 and Y100, this must be added to the
addresses and therefore (100h+378h) 478h is specified for the X area and the Y area as shown in the PLC Logic
diagram below to enable Station 1’s link.
For Station 2’s link, the starting address (X/Y480) is added to the 888th (378h) bit for that station which is address
(480h + 378h) X/Y7F8.
For Station 3’s link, the starting address (X/Y800) is added to the 888th (378h) bit for that station which is address
X/YB78.

Fieldbus Message Setting (PLC → HFC Controller)
1. Contents of Sent Data: ASCII Data
(Refer to 3 below regarding the actual sent data results.)
2. Max. message length: 16words/32 bytes
(As configured in HFC3000 Software)
3. Input Example
Select ASCII letters to send message information from the PLC to the HFC Controller for PC communication
and I/O (PLC) control. (Only ASCII Data can be recognized by FEC controller)
The message information sent from the PLC to the HFC Controller will be reflected in the part ID data in the
HFC3000 User Console and the RS232C Data port output.
- The standard set value for the ID input data is 32 bytes (16 words). Be careful because
even when a value beyond this is set, only the first 32 bytes are saved in the fastening
result memory storage of the Controller.
- Do not use the following characters.
