IJSys – Integrated Joining System – Integrated all-in-one technology with ISO interface

Compact, fully integrated solution with servo amplifier, motor, and sensors in one device

The NC joining module Integrated Joining System IJSys Type 2168A... with integrated servo amplifier, strain gauge force sensor, and functional safety for a nominal joining force of 2.5 kN is particularly suitable for force-displacement-monitored assembly and joining processes.

- Standardized interface according to ISO 15552
- Force sensor for precise measurement and process control
- Easy installation thanks to integrated power electronics
- High dynamics thanks to direct drive
- Compact design

The Integrated Joining System IJSys Type 2168A... electromechanical joining modules combine all the components necessary for a reliable joining process in a compact and robust housing. The ball screw drive converts the rotary motion of the integrated servomotor into linear motion, enabling standard functions such as joining to block, position and force-controlled joining, as well as movement to intermediate positions. Force measurement is performed by the strain gauge force sensor integrated in the flange, which is digitized directly in the unit. In addition to the sensor- and drive technology, the safety technology required for operation is also integrated. Safe Torque Off (STO) and a holding brake with Safe Brake Control (SBC) are available for this purpose.
Correct wiring of the safety technology, a 24 VDC supply to the logic, and a 48 VDC supply to the power unit are required for operation. Communication with the joining module takes place in real time via EtherCAT. In addition to force-displacement information, control and status signals are also transmitted. In combination with maXYmos NC Type 5847C... from variant C0 onwards, all known options for process control and monitoring are available. The fieldbus slave interfaces provided enable communication with the system via PROFIBUS, PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, or EtherCAT. The Ethernet interface can be used to transfer quality data via various protocols, as well as for visualization via VNC and data backups.
