INTEGRATED FASTENING SYSTEM

Integrated Fastening Systems

CLK connects fastening units, nutrunners, feeders and distributors through one control architecture for a stable fastening sequence.

SYSTEM INTEGRATION

From Separate Controls to One Integrated Sequence

Existing equipment roles are preserved while control and diagnostics between devices are standardized within the CLK system.

AS-IS

Separate Hardware Control

  • Fastening-unit and nutrunner hardware configured separately
  • Fastening sequence and error handling programmed directly in the end-user PLC
  • Feeder, escapement and auxiliary hopper managed through separate signals
TO-BE

CLK Integrated Sequence Control

  • The CLK controller integrates each device into one fastening sequence
  • Feeder and escapement are grouped for direct control of the entire bolt-supply process
  • Production requests, completion, result and alarm data are standardized for the end-user PLC
01

Consistent Fastening Sequence

Reduces equipment-specific control variations to improve fastening consistency.

02

Simplified PLC Interface

The host PLC focuses on work requests and results, reducing program complexity.

03

Integrated Diagnostics

Centralized status and error monitoring shortens response time from feeding to fastening.

CONTROL ARCHITECTURE

One Controller Connects the Fastening Process.

The end-user PLC communicates bidirectionally with the CLK controller, which coordinates sequence, status and errors across every hardware module.
