4.2.8 Preparation for Operation in Force Sensor Pressing (Loadcell Calibration)
The force sensor pressing is a feature dedicated for PCON-CBP/CGBP.
With the performance of a loadcell for the feedback control of the pressing force during the
pressing operation in operation of the force sensor used pressing (PIO Patterns 6 and 7),
pressing operation with high precision should be available.
Before having the pressing operation of the force sensor used pressing, have the settings and
process described below established.
Caution
● For the force sensor used pressing, there is a need of an actuator applicable for the
dedicated loadcell and the force sensor used pressing.
● In the calibration, the value at the moment of the calibration should set as the datum
point (0 [N]). Therefore, it is necessary to consider that load of a fixture attached on the
loadcell should only be the load applied on the loadcell during the calibration.
[1] Initial Setting
The pressing operation with the force sensor used pressing requires a use of a loadcell. It is
necessary to have the initial setting established before starting operation. Establish the settings as
shown in the thick-bordered boxes to the four parameters shown in the table below.
