When Should You Choose the KR002-H01?
Consider the KR002-H01 when your assembly process needs product-specific visual guidance, barcode-based program selection, or searchable tightening records. The following requirements can help you decide what to include in your workstation configuration.
Different Products Need Different Programs
Your workstation handles multiple product variants with different fastening-point layouts or process requirements. The H01 supports product-specific program setup and barcode-based program selection.
Operators Need Clear Fastening-Point Prompts
Your product has several fastening positions that can be difficult to distinguish. Imported product images and fastening-point indicators give operators a visual reference for the configured assembly task.
Your Quality Team Needs Tightening Records
You need to review previous tightening tasks and individual fastening-point results. The H01 provides historical record queries; available torque, angle, curve, and result data depend on the connected tightening equipment and interface.
Your Process Uses Several Connected Devices
Your workstation combines a sensor-equipped torque arm, tightening equipment, and devices such as a socket selector, barcode scanner, or status light. The required device combination can be reviewed for your application.
One workstation may combine several of these needs. Share your product variants, tool and torque arm models, and required production records so KURAN can review the appropriate software and device configuration.
Visual Program Setup and Fastening-Point Guidance
Build tightening programs around your products and define fastening locations using product images and taught positions. The KR002-H01 interface brings program management, point setup, and equipment communication status into the workstation configuration process.
Build Programs Around Your Products
Create and organize programs for different products or assembly tasks. Access program operations from the list and review the communication status of the connected tightening tool and torque arm.
- Create and Organize Programs Add product-specific programs and access them from the program management list.
- Access Program Operations Run or edit a program, enter point teaching, or remove a program through the available action controls.
- Check Equipment Communication View tool and torque arm connection indicators alongside the available arm position information.

View Full-Size ImageDefine Where Each Operation Belongs
Import a product image, organize its working faces, and configure the fastening points for the program. Visual point markers provide a reference for the locations defined during setup.
- Organize Product Views and Points Create workfaces and add fastening points to the relevant product view.
- Teach Positions from the Torque Arm Use the current arm position values to record a reference position for the selected fastening point.
- Assign the Tool Program Number Configure the point-specific Pset assignment for compatible tightening equipment as part of the workstation setup.
Validate the setup with your actual fixture and tool. Taught positions, point assignments, and equipment responses should be checked during commissioning, including any interrupted-cycle and rework requirements.
Barcode-Based Program Selection
Use barcode scanning to call the configured tightening program for a product or assembly task. For workstations handling different variants, this provides a way to link product identification with the required program.
- 01 Identify
Scan the Product Code
Read the configured barcode using a compatible scanner. The code format and the information used for program selection should be defined for your production process.
- 02 Select
Call the Assigned Program
Use the configured relationship between the scanned code and the program to call the corresponding tightening task. Program associations are established during project setup.
- 03 Operate
Follow the Selected Task
Continue with the selected program and its configured product image and fastening-point guidance. Tool operation follows the interfaces and process logic agreed for the workstation.
Define How Your Codes Select Programs
Share a sample barcode, the required program list, and your scanner information. These details help KURAN review how barcode-based selection should fit into your existing assembly workflow.
- Barcode Content
- Provide sample codes and explain which part identifies the product model or assembly task.
- Program Association
- Define which tightening program should be called for each product or code category.
- Scanner Connection
- Provide the scanner model and available interface information for compatibility review.
Include exception handling in the configuration review. Define the required response to unreadable or unrecognized codes, missing program associations, and scans made during an active task.
Tightening Records and Historical Data Review
Review previous tightening tasks and inspect individual fastening-point details through the KR002-H01 history interface. With compatible equipment and configured data collection, the system can retain tightening information for quality review and process investigation.

What Tightening Information Can Be Recorded?
The available record fields depend on the connected tool, controller interface, and project configuration. Confirm the required data fields before selecting the equipment and integration approach.
| Data Field | Information for Review | What to Confirm |
|---|---|---|
| Fastening-Point Parameters | Recorded parameters associated with the configured fastening point. | Which point identifiers and position parameters your project needs to retain. |
| Tightening Torque | The torque result provided by the connected tightening equipment. | Whether the tool interface supplies the required torque value and unit. |
| Tightening Angle | The angle result when available from the tightening equipment. | Whether angle data is supported by the tool and communication interface. |
| Tightening Curves | Curve data made available by compatible tightening equipment. | The curve data available through the selected interface and the required record format. |
| Tightening Results | Recorded results for reviewing task and fastening-point outcomes. | The tool result signals and configured logic used to determine task status. |
