Electronic system for verifying the proper functioning of industrial screwdrivers

An electronic system for verifying the proper functioning of industrial screwdrivers including a test bench,

• said test bench comprising
• a plurality of hydraulic brakes, with which the screwdriver is associated, suitably controlled by a hydraulic circuit comprising at least one pump, which withdraws the fluid from a reservoir and provides it to a pressure regulating valve, which in turn provides it to the brakes,
• each brake being provided with measuring transducers, connected to an electronic driver board, which also controls the regulating valve,
• a hydraulic distributor is present between the brakes and the regulating valve, the hydraulic distributor comprising solenoid valves able to select, operate and control the hydraulic pressure of each brake to which it is selectively connected, and
• a computer which communicates with the board and comprises a suitable driving program stored thereon capable of adjusting the braking capacity of the brakes according to a preset braking torque/brake rotation angle curve,
• wherein the electronic system comprises
• a first negative feedback loop and a pressure regulator for each of the solenoid valves of proportional integral type which ensure that an actual pressure curve exerted on the brakes corresponds to a desired and set curve, and
• a second negative feedback loop and a second regulator to ensure that an actual torque/angle curve measured by the transducers present on the brakes corresponds to a curve that one wishes to set, the second regulator determining a pressure reference value.
