Instruction manual of automatic bottle cap torque tester

Overview

Main purpose and scope of application
The automatic cap torque tester ANPM is a new patented product that automatically tests the torque value. It adopts the principle of combining advanced electronic technology and precision mechanical transmission to replace the previous torque value that is manually tested by opening or locking the cap The error meets the technical requirements stipulated in the national standard GB / T 17876. Equipped with high-precision torque sensor to achieve precise loading and positioning. It is suitable for detecting the torque value of locking and opening of various bottle, nozzle, hose and other packaging products, such as: medicinal glass bottles, medicinal plastic bottles, child safety caps, beverage bottles, mineral water bottles , Milk bottles, oil barrels, etc. It is the first choice for beverage and bottle production manufacturers and research institutions, quality inspection institutions, large and medium-sized enterprises to test product quality.

Test principle

Fix the bottle body and bottle cap of the measured object on the fixture equipped with the tester, and clamp them. The bottom clamp is connected to the torque sensor in the tester box. After starting the instrument, the upper clamp clamps the bottle cap and starts to rotate, driving the bottle body, which is then transmitted to the torque sensor to test the torque value required for the cap to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise.

Measurement interface display

1. It indicates the peak torque value produced by the instrument when testing the product.
2. Indicates the real-time torque value generated by the instrument when testing the product and the torque unit currently used.
3. It indicates the forward / reverse rotation angle value of the instrument when testing the product.
4. Minimum peak value: The minimum storage value set according to the curren  peak torque measurement requirements of the measured object, and data smaller than this value will not be displayed by the peak storage.
5. Upper limit value: The maximum test value can be set freely according to the needs. When the set upper limit value is reached, the rotating shaft will automatically stop rotating and reverse, and the upper limit value shall not be higher than the full range. (For repeat mode)
6.  Lower limit value: The user sets the lower limit value, which can be set freely according to the needs. When the set lower limit value is reached, the rotating shaft stops automatically, and the lower limit value should not be higher than the set upper limit value. (Used in repeat mode, the lower limit default reference is 0)

8. Speed: The response speed of the rotation axis, used for the instrument to perform clockwise / counterclockwise rotation test. (Short press left and right to fine tune, long press left and right to automatically increase and decrease, press the stop speed to stop)
9. Number of repetitions: used for repetitive testing when the instrument tests uniform workpieces.
10. Mode: It indicates the test status used in the current test.

User setting interface
Press the setting button, the display interface is as follows:

Use \”Stop key \” to move the black cursor up and down to select the setting item Left / right arrow key \”to set the black cursor to move left and right.
Description of setting parameters
The above limits are set as an example)
Use \”Left / Right Arrow Keys, Clockwise / Counterclockwise Keys \” to move the black cursor to the left and right, and adjust and modify the value. After the adjustment, press the Set key to confirm and save the setting data Save the modified data). The set data cannot exceed the maximum load value.
4.1 Upper limit:According to the maximum test value that can be set freely, when the set upper limit value is reached, the rotating shaft will automatically stop rotating and reverse, and the upper limit value should not be higher than the fullrange. (For repeat mode)
4.2 Lower limit:The user sets the lower limit value, which can be set freely according to the needs. When the set lower limit value is reached, the rotating shaft stops automatically, and the lower limit value should not be higher than the set upper limit value. Used in repeat mode, the lower limit default reference is 0)
4.3 Speed: The response speed of the rotation axis is used for the instrument to perform clockwise / counterclockwise rotation test.
4.4 Number of repetitions:It is used for repeated testing. When testing the same work piece, set the upper and lower limit values for the number of repeated tests.
4.5 Mode:Four modes switch, freely set according to test requirements. Manual mode, automatic peak mode, repeat mode, torque angle modulus. (The torque angle mode can only be operated on the computer, and the computer software needs to be connected)
4.5.1. Manual mode: place the measured object on the machine, rotate the fixture manually, the system will record the peak value. (Mode selection manual, press the clockwise or counterclockwise button, the previous peak value will be cleared, press the stop button to stop the current rotation)
4.5.2. Automatic peak mode: This mode is used in conjunction with the setting of the lower limit value. When a peak value is detected and the current value is less than the lower limit value, the instrument stops rotating. (Mode selection auto peak, press the clockwise or counterclockwise button, the previous peak will be cleared)
4.5.3. Repeat mode: This mode is used for repeated testing. You need to set the upper and lower limits and the number of repetitions to use. When the upper and lower limits are set, press clockwise or counterclockwise. After starting, when the force value  eaches the upper limit After the limit value, the rotation becomes the reverse direction. When the force value is less than the lower limit value, the count is added in one operation, and the direction is changed at the same time for the next measurement until the total number of measurements is completed.
4.5.4. Torque angle mode: This mode can only be used with computer software. The instrument cannot be used directly. It is mainly used to record the real- time curve of rotation. Two angle values need to be set. Return to the origin after reaching two angle values successively, and record the three-segment curve to display on the computer software.
4.6 Minimum peak value:According to the minimum storage value set according to the current peak torque measurement requirements of the measured object, the data smaller than this value will not be displayed by the peak storage.
5. Description of other methods of use:
5.1 Angle reset:Long press the reset button
5.2 Unit switching: Long press the stop button
5.3 Print current value:Long press to set (Configure the micro printer, the print data is the peak value, real time, angle value tested at the time)
