The working process of the torque system comprises the following steps:
1. the upstream system or the local (and the web end and/or the TIMS system) imports the process card (operation task and operation data) to the server.
2. The client rapidly calls the part in a searching and scanning mode according to the tightening program editing software, and an alarm is given if part information errors occur; and meanwhile, a screwing program in the process card is identified, and a screwing tool is automatically matched, and an alarm is given if the information of the screwing tool is wrong.
3. The controller controls the electric tool to perform tightening operation according to a tightening torque set value set by the process card, a tightening torque program background exists in a basic database, and after all tightening programs are initialized, the tightening programs needing to be set are newly added subsequently and stored in the basic database.
4. The client collects and stores a first tightening torque of the current tightening operation, and compares the first tightening torque with a first set value (calibration value);

If so, the next part of the process is automatically selected and a tightening command is sent to perform step 4. When all parts are assembled, the system automatically judges that the process is finished and automatically enters the next process. When all the procedures of the vehicle in the process area are finished, the system automatically judges that the state of the vehicle type in the current process area is finished, and calculates the consumption number of parts.
If not, the system automatically locates the next bolt, automatically identifies the tool according to preset process data, issues a tightening instruction, and executes the step 4.
And if the part is not screwed down within the qualified range, the system sends a back loosening instruction, the part is checked and disassembled, after the part is to be disassembled, the screwing instruction is sent again, and one bolt is allowed to be screwed down at most twice. If the screw is not qualified for the second time (the screw is judged to be the same as the first time), the step 6 is executed after the part is loosened;
and when the part is judged to have larger deformation or quality problems, sending a part replacing and re-screwing instruction, and executing the step 7.

If for a bolt, first a suitable target torque is determined according to ISO 898/1 standard, for example, the thread is M8, the bolt rating is 8.8, the recommended torque is 24Nm, and a range is set, for example, ± 10% (which may be set manually), then the recommended range of this torque is 21.6Nm-26.4Nm. And then combining a tightening curve, finding out the torque of a joint point (the angle change is close to 0) of the bolt and the surface of the part according to the tightening angle, and multiplying the torque by a correlation coefficient, such as 1.1, according to the soft and hard connection characteristics to obtain a second set value. If the torque of the joint point is not found, the torque target torque is set to be smaller, and the torque target torque can be adjusted (set) on the basis of the original target torque and then tightened again.
7. Re-tightening operation of replacing parts is executed, and the re-tightening operation is executed according to a first tightening torque set value set by the process card; and re-executing the steps 4-7 until the system sends an operation ending instruction.
According to the collected first tightening torque/Nm, tightening angle/DEG and tightening curve, analyzing the working condition of the part, specifically: when the actual tightening value of the tool exceeds the set value range for more than 2 times (or 3 times or four times), judging that the part has larger deformation or quality problem; and when the actual tightening value of the tool exceeds the set value range within 2 times, judging that the quality of the part is still within a qualified range.
The invention realizes the preset tightening program of the webpage end of the controller and meets the setting requirement of the tightening program of more than or equal to 300 types/vehicle types. The process design, the process execution and the process instant change of the 1000+ assembly process of the single-vehicle type are realized, and the internal information change of the process card in a single process can be realized: when the internal information of a certain locally imported process card contains any one of part information, equipment/tool information, moment information, operation description, picture screenshot and the like, and the like is locally changed, the moment system at the server can realize timely change, the response time of each change does not exceed 30 seconds, and the change of the part information, the equipment/tool information and the moment information is synchronously updated to a moment tightening result report. The process card sequence change of different procedures can be realized: the server-side torque system can realize the sequential adjustment among process cards in any different procedures under the condition that the internal information (part information, equipment/tool information, torque information, operation description, picture screenshot and the like) of the process cards is not changed, and the response time of each change is not more than 30 seconds. The tightening curves may exhibit different forms of torque-time, angle-time, torque-angle, and the like.
