Industrial Tightening Control Systems for Assembly Workstations
KURAN KR002 control systems connect position-detecting torque reaction arms, compatible tightening tools, and workstation devices to manage fastening points, sequences, programs, and OK/NOK results. Choose the KR002-B01 for fixed workstation processes or the KR002-H01 for product management, traceability, and system integration.
Choose the Right Tightening Control System for Your Workstation
KURAN provides two controller options for different levels of workstation complexity. The KR002-B01 Field Controller is suited to standard tightening stations that require stable control and communication with a position-detecting torque arm. The KR002-H01 Supervisory Controller is designed for more advanced processes requiring real-time position guidance, program management, production data tracking, and greater traceability.
Designed for advanced tightening processes, this system supports real-time position guidance, data tracking, and program management, helping ensure accuracy, traceability, and error-proof operation.
Ideal for standard tightening applications, this controller enables simple program control and stable communication with torque arms, ensuring reliable and efficient operation on the shop floor.
