9.4.7.3.8 Element Wait "WAIT"
Object for stopping the sequence. The object is set on the fieldbus of the output
Wait Request Bit 9.6. The stop thus signals the PLC. The input Continue from
Wait Bit 9.6 must be set in order to advance.
Description
The description can be chosen freely (maximum 30 characters, where the maximum number
of characters can be reduced with the use of special characters according to the UTF8 stan-
dard).
The signal Continue from Wait must be reset after the clearing by
Wait Request. Wait Request can only be reset if Continue from
Wait = 0 (also if the sequence is already in a new object Wait).
Example: If signal Continue from Wait is not cleared after reset of Wait Request. For element
WAIT2, Wait Request is thereby delayed.

9.4.7.3.9 Sequence for standard joining process
9.4.7.3.10
The following examples serve as templates for programming typical joining processes. De-
pending on the application, appropriate adjustments should be made.
Sequence for joining to position with automatic return stroke
Conditions of the examples
A part should be joined at an absolute position of 75 mm. The joining is performed at a speed
of 10 mm/s. The approach of the joining stroke is performed in rapid speed at 100 mm/s to
10 mm before the joining position. The home position is at 0 mm absolute and the return trip
is to be performed automatically after the joining. The speed of the return trip is 100 mm/s.
The measurement should be active during the entire forward movement.
Programmed sequence
One object Flag (fast speed, joining, return) was added for the different sections. The number
of the label ID of the respective object Flag is correspondingly displayed in the respective row.
Selection and control is performed as described in the chapter Process/Control.

ment Join is performed automatically without interruption. The speed is thus already reduced
before reaching the parameterized position, so that these comply with the value of the speed

9.4.7.3.11 Sequence for joining to block (Force) with automatic return stroke
Conditions of the examples
A part is to be joined to a block. The maximum permissible block force is 800 N. The block
position is between 80 and 85 mm. The joining is performed at a speed of 5 mm/s. The
approach of the joining stroke is performed in rapid speed at 100 mm/s to 5 mm before the
area in which the block position is expected. The home position is at 0 mm absolute and the
return trip is to be performed automatically after the joining. The speed of the return is 100
mm/s. The measurement should be active during the entire forward movement.

The parameterization of the objects Movement Rapid Speed and home position is the same as
in the example joining to position, where the position for the object Movement Rapid Speed
is 75 mm here.
Selection and control is performed as described in the chapter Process/Control.
The setting for the object Movement Join:
Make certain that for the parameterization of the object Movement Join that the position is
chosen so that the block position is always reached. The speed for driving at the block must
be chosen appropriately for the application. In addition to the maximum block force, the
approach direction of the force threshold must be set.
A too high feed rate when joining to block can lead to damage or
destruction of the joining module, the system or the workpiece. A
danger to life and limb may thereby exist for the operator of those
around him (e.g., through the ejection of parts or fragments).
Maximum joining speed during joining operation to block is 10
mm/s, otherwise damage of workpiece or NC joining module can
be caused by peak forces out of the kinetic energy!

9.4.7.3.12 Sequence with return stroke by external start of the drive to home position
If the back stroke to home position is not automatically in the sequence, but is triggered by
the user, the object home position is to be positioned after the object Sequence End.
To do this, select Sequence End and in this example move it up one row.
The sequence now ends before the object home position. The object home position is not
executed in this case.
The back stroke can only be triggered by the user. Either by control via fieldbus (ReturnHo-

9.4.7.3.13 Intermediate position without measurement (Sub.1 … 3)
If the approach to an intermediate position is necessary, e.g., to change the tool or the
engagement of a part, this can be performed through a sub-sequence. This is particularly
advantageous if these positions are MP-specific and or used only sporadically.
As an example, here is a sub-sequence represented with an intermediate position at 50 mm:
Measurement is not possible in a sub-sequence. Monitoring for

Remote access on maXYmos NC via Ethernet connection (sockets X5 or X6) is possible via
VNC®. Use either a pre-existing VNC ®-client on your PC or use the 'vncviewer' included on
the CD.
Install and start VNC®client 'vncviewer'. Enter the IP in the field 'VNC® Server' and create
connection with 'Connect'. The maXYmos NC is fully operated via VNC ® by tapping on the
panels.
Tool movement/procedure
Since full access to the monitor maXYmos NC is possible, movement
of the NC joining module can also be performed via the functions
jog mode and sequence mode. Kistler recommends movements
of the NC joining module only be triggered by qualified personnel
that can directly oversee the movement. A movement may only
be performed if a hazard is eliminated through appropriate safety
measures (e.g., two hand start, protective grid, etc. are provided
by the manufacturer of the ready-for-use machine or system, and
installed in the control circuit corresponding to the specified Per-
formance Level SIL). The control circuit must be activated when
using the NC joining system. EMERGENCY STOP switches must
be connected in accordance with the safety and circuit instructions
of the servo amplifier (see also documentation of the manufac-
turer). The system must not be used in hazardous areas of the
plant. Driving to block may result in damage or destruction of the
NC joining modules, the system or the workpiece. A danger to life
and limb may thereby exist for the operator or those around him
(e.g., through the ejection of parts or fragments).

11.5 Referencing
Referencing must only be performed by trained specialists. Incor-
rect or defective referencing of the NC joining modules may cause
damage or destruction to the NC joining modules, the system or
the workpiece. A danger to life and limb may thereby exist for the
operator or those around him (e.g., through the ejection of parts
or fragments).
If necessary, the mechanical zero point can be reset in the menu Service > Referencing Ab-
solute Encoder. This setting has been performed at the factory and must be repeated only
when replacing components (motor or servo amplifier).
Menu Service > Referencing Absolute Encoder
The reference measure (mechanical zero) and the reference is specified on the nameplate of
the NC joining modules.

7. Confirmation of the successful referencing
8. Mask after successful referencing
If the nameplate is not accessible, the reference measurements are
specified in the chapter 'Engineering/Mechanics'. In the context
of the product maintenance, however, these measurement spec-
ifications may change. Binding is an indication of the type label.

11.6 Test torque of the holding brake
The NC joining modules (not for NCFS, optional for NCFB) are equipped with a holding brake
to drop under gravity and emergency braking for use in manual work stations.
The holding brake must be checked cyclically. The inspection interval for the holding brake is
specified at 8 hours.
The activation of the test is performed in the monitor maXYmos NC.
Check the test torque displayed in the control with the specified examination torque.
Check the stored values before commissioning under Setup > Global Setup > NC Settings.
The values o f the test torque are specified for the individual NC
joining models in the chapter 'Project Planning Electrical'.
If the displayed values deviate from the target values, contact
Service at Kistler.
11.7 Cleaning NC joining modules NCF (H, N, S, T, B, E)
The NC joining module should be cleaned as necessary so that the seals and bearings are not
damaged by the stuck dust. To do this, remove leaking grease with a soft cloth.
Grease leakage is related to operations, not the results of a defect!
11.8 Calibration strain gage and piezoelectric force transducer
Calibrate transducers at regular intervals and perform a control measure with a separate
reference sensor. To this end, the joint force is measured and compared to the intrinsic value
measurement with an additional force transducer. During an impermissibly large deviation,
the sensor should be replaced.
Kistler recommends that the control measurement be performed
at least once per year.

11.9 Maintenance of the joining module mechanics
11.9.1 Type 2153A..., NCFN (Mechanics)
The screw drive is to be lubricated at least every 1 million double strokes or at least 1x per
year according to the maintenance schedule for NC joining modules.
For NC joining modules Type 2153A ..., NCFN the lubrication must be performed every
1 000 operating hours or at least 2x per year. To do this, only be suitable bearing grease, such
as Klüberplex BEM 41-132, or similar may be used.

The plain bearing bush is to be provided with a permanent lubrication.
Grease leakage is related to operations, not the results of a defect!
Lubrication NCFN 600 kN - Type 2153A600200HQ15
Grease: Klüberplex BEM 41-132. The lubricating base amount for
the screw nut is 350 cm3 and for the spindle approx. 35 cm3.
The calculated relubrication interval is 510 hours and the relu-
brication 80 cm3. Repeated re-lubrication should be preferred to
one-off lubrication.
If the grease is very dirty before the relubrication, it should be
removed and replaced with the same amount of new grease.
