DIGIFORCE® 9311 is the new standard in efficient quality control. The pioneering force/displacement controller delivers rapid, precise evaluation results for applications that demand both high quality and high productivity. The smart performance features and intelligent hardware make test equipment quicker to set up, easier to use and capable of automatic integration in modern production systems. This unrivalled product specification gives businesses the added security and dependability they need for increasingly complex production processes.
The DIGIFORCE® 9311 monitors processes in which precisely defined functional relationships need to be demonstrated between two measured quantities of the process. For instance when recording and monitoring processes such as press-insertion, joining, riveting, stamping or caulking, reliable quality control depends on synchronous and high-speed acquisition of measured values combined with analysis based on versatile evaluation elements. DIGIFORCE® 9311 provides the modern platform you need for this task, offering the widest choice of Fieldbus interfaces, including PROFINET, PROFIBUS and EtherNet/IP, to let you integrate the test setup in your particular control environment.
Even in fully manual workstations such as manual presses with force/displacement monitoring, DIGIFORCE® 9311 can be used for convenient and efficient process monitoring thanks to custom add-on functions like acknowledge and inhibit signals.
Burster sensor delivers unforgettable torsional moments With the new, compact 8661 series of torque sensors, burster is extending its portfolio of products to include the acquisition of static and rotating torques over the range from 0.05 Nm up to 200 Nm. In addition to its highly accurate measurements – to text and downloads. PDF Burst was built as a free portable app to burst PDF File to Single Page PDF Files by Drag-and-Drop, and has a nice user interface. PDF Burst is a GUI free Windows tool based on PDFTK project.
The DIGIFORCE® 9311 uses burster TEDS to provide automatic sensor recognition. This feature automatically reads an electronic datasheet stored in the sensor so that the relevant data can be used in the measurement-channel configuration. With no chance of operator error during setup or servicing, it’s best to play safe with burster TEDS. DIGIFORCE® 9311 offers versatile solutions for processes that need not just an OK/NOK evaluation but also data logging capabilities for recorded measurements and curves. Data from semi-automated and fully automated systems can be logged via the available Fieldbuses without slowing down production or via the Ethernet port (included as standard) linked to a server, host or local PC. The DigiControl PC software provides support with an automatic data logging mode that runs in parallel with production. There is also the option for high-speed data acquisition on a USB flash drive.
The series 8661 precision torque sensor is the ideal choice for reliable measurement of static and dynamic clockwise and counter-clockwise torques.
Thanks to the non-contact transmission of the excitation voltage and measurement signal, the sensor offers virtually maintenance- free and fail-safe operation. This makes it perfect for industrial production and assembly applications where there is a need to measure actuating or breakaway torques, holding torques or tightening torques.
Its high measurement quality means that the sensor is equally suited to quality control applications and laboratory-based research and development projects.
For network-independent, mobile use, the torque sensor offers an optional USB interface. This can be connected to a notebook running the PC software supplied with the device to take on-site measurements with accompanying visualization and archival of measurement values.
The applied torque can be read easily by evaluation units or controllers connected to the normalized analog interface. Its compact, robust and vibration-proof construction makes it suitable for use in the following example applications:
The measuring shaft, which is made of high-quality materials, carries metal-film strain gauges. Torsion of the shaft by the torque to be measured produces a change in resistance in the full bridge, which is converted into an analog signal that is proportional to the torque.
To ensure wear-free operation, the power is supplied by inductive coupling and the measurement signals are transmitted optically.
The signal, which has been digitized already on the shaft, is converted and amplified into a 0… ±10 V signal by a 16-bit digital-to-analog converter on the stator. A high-resolution TTL output signal for the angular displacement and rotational speed measurement is achieved by optical sensing of an incremental encoder disk with up to 1,024 divisions and two offset tracks plus four-edge decoding.
An extra socket in addition to the standard 12-pin connector provides another option for connecting an external supply. Continuous, online display of the various operating states is provided by a 3-LED optical indicator.
High-quality bearings, tight manufacturing tolerances and excellent balance are essential for achieving the optimum running stability that this sensor delivers at speeds of over 25,000 rpm.
