MICROMAT-F and MINIMAT-F Screwdrivers

• Counts screwdriving cycles & supervises assembly times
• Only shuts off when the preset torque is reached
• Recognizes a part change
• Allows the connection of one screwdriver
• 100% self-monitoring
• Design selection of the screwdriver according to application (inline, pistol-grip, angle-head)
• Reduces the need for costly post-assembly checks

After detecting the start signal from the screwdriver (operator push-down or start trigger), the air supply to the driver is enabled via the new multi-function control combined with the pneumatic handheld control.

When reaching the preset torque value, the screwdriver stops by way of the extremely accurate shut-off clutch.

In connection with the pneumatic control and a sensor in the screwdriver (MICROMAT-F/MINIMAT-F), the multi-function control is able to confirm the correct screw assembly sequence. The screw tightening time is compared to a minimum/maximum pre-programmed time window. If the screw tightening duration is too short (cross-thread) or too long (stripped screw), a failure message alerts the operator to a potential problem. In addition, an onboard sensor confirms the screwdriver is enabled until the clutch mechanism is disengaged, ensuring the cycle was not terminated as a result of the operator lifting the screwdriver prematurely. This confirms that the tightening process was carried out properly without material failures or influence by the operator.

In addition, the number of screw assembly operations per part can be monitored. No screw will be forgotten!

Reliable pass/fail process monitoring is only guaranteed with the use of a non-reversible screwdriver. In order to assure best possible process quality, we recommend applying righthand-rotation drivers wherever possible.

In short, the MICROMAT-F / MINIMAT-F with multi-function control monitors itself and assures the integrity of your assembly.

The MICROMAT-F / MINIMAT-F screwdriver incorporates the well-known advantages of the DEPRAG MICROMAT/MINIMAT screwdriver series, and oil-free operation is also possible.

When connected to an automatic screw feeder, the feeding of the screw is controlled by the multi-function control. The controller is connected to the screw feeder using an optionally available SZG-connection set.
