・ Due to the usage of many electronic parts
be careful not to expose the controller to
static electricity.
Keep in mind to discharge static electricity from th
e body by touching something
metal before touching an operation switch on the front panel.
2-1-4 Duty Cycle Calculation
Duty cycle is the ratio of tool fastening (running) time and idle time.
The duty cycle for AFC3000 Nutrunner System is calculated as below.
Duty Cycle （％）＝
（％）＝（％）＝
（％）＝ Fastening Time ÷ （
（（
（ Fastening Time ＋
＋＋
＋ Idle Time ）
））
） × 100
Maintain the duty cycle less than 60% under normal conditions.
An abnormal (A8-10 “Overload Error”) may occur if the unit is used in a condition that the duty cycle is
over 60%. (Additional abnormals may also be caused by high duty due to the higher current and heat
generated when the motor is ‘overworked’. (Make sure the motor surface temperature does not exceed
70°C (158°F) (Outer Motor Case)). Contact FEC regarding a specified cycle time more than 60% Duty.
