QPM delivers value over the life cycle of the productLowered costs on materials and labor.Reduced times for setup, fastening,rework, and maintenance. Increasedquality, productivity, ergonomics, andflexibility. Compared to pneumatic and other DC electric assembly tools,QPM is THE COMPLETE TIGHTENINGSOLUTION that delivers lifetime value.

Watch for this markthroughout the book tosee the many ways QPM

can increase your rate of return, usuallypaying back the investment in a few years—sometimes months.

�Environment

1-11_V2 9/14/06 11:04 AM Page 4

�Productivity

�ErgonomicsQPM ATC prevents sudden downshift-ing which can reduce operator fatigue

and torque reaction impulse as com-pared to other DC electric tools. Soft stop

feature prevents sudden change in torquereaction to the operator.

�Error ProofingQPM compares digital results to quality limits to eliminate missed fasteners. With pneumatic tools,error proofing is more complex and less reliable.

�Return on Investment (ROI)QPM can improve ROI in a new assembly process byproviding a lower overall life cycle cost as comparedto pneumatic and other DC electric tool solutions.When comparing tooling solutions, it is important tolook at the Total Cost of Ownership, which includesoperating costs as well as up-front acquisition costs.

�ModularityCommon modularcontrollers and toolcomponents allow amanufacturer to drawon a smaller inventory ofinterchangeable partsto maintain a productionline of any size orcomplexity. Other DCelectric systems requiremore unique controllerand tool components.

QPM enables flexiblemanufacturing. A singletool can be set toassemble joints of different target torquelevels. In contrast, separate pneumatictools are required foreach different torquelevel, increasing initialcost and the repetitivecost of setup.

QPM systems reducethe frequency of mainte-nance with increasedMean Time BetweenFailures from long lifecomponents (motors,gearing, non-contactstart electronics, cables,and bearings) as compared to otherDC electric andpneumatic tools.

Simple QPM construc-tion decreases theMean Time To Repairbecause other DCelectric systems aremore complex andcostly to repair.

DC electric tools requireless frequent torqueaudits which decreaseproduction cost ascompared topneumatic tools.

Torque Control

Adaptive Tightening Control gives eachtool the flexibility to adjust for different joint designsand variable part tolerances. Two fasteners may havethe same size and torque specifications, but differentjoint characteristics (e.g, hard vs. soft). Without ATC,either torque overshoot or long cycle times result.ATC improves torque capability and reduces cycletime by automatically adjusting to joint variations—minimizing the number of tools and set-ups.

From Easy to ExpertThe Wizard gives Easy Method control directly from

the key pad on the controller. Users can also takeadvantage of advanced programmability using

Configuration Editor or FTB software with a PC.

All cables in the QPM high-flex line are CEcompliant and meet UL/CSA specifications.

The QPM connectors for fixtured tools and all controllers install with only

trigger increases MTBF by eliminating mechanical

or magnetic switches which wear out over time.

Straight, push-to-start, andangle screwdriver models canfasten from torque levels aslow as 0.6 Nm to 18 Nm. Speedranges from 2500 to 500 RPMat higher torque levels.

All models weigh less thantwo pounds (one kilogram) andare less than 12" (300 mm)long. Push-to-start modelsinclude headlights.

Fastening status LEDs, visiblefrom either side of the tool,signal the operator aboutassembly quality from pre-selected limits. A center button can function either as a reverse switch or changethe assembly settings for a different fastener.

Quick and easyreconfiguration.The QPM tool may be assembled or disassembledin minutes, without the use of special tooling. Alongwith allowing users to easily change one modelinto another, the modular motors and gearing haveinterface designs that simplify service.

Stanley’s modular motor and gearingcomponents help QPM systems deliverlower Total Cost of Ownership. Highcomponent durability, predictable life,flexible interfacing, and serviceabilityreduce life cycle cost by increasingMTBF (Mean Time Between Failure)and reducing MTTR (Mean Time To Repair).

MOTORS & GEARS5

Premium quality DC(brushless) servo motorsused in all models.High energy magnets and premium corematerials ensure these motors generatemaximum power and acceleration withminimal size, weight, and temperature.

Double-shielded ball bearings and integraltemperature monitor ensure reliableperformance and maximize MTBF.

A coupler protects the motor output shaftfrom wear, resulting in a low cost replacementpart instead of the more expensive replacementmotor typical of competitive brands.

Identical motors fit both handheld and fixturedtools, further reducing spare parts inventory.
