Video Training Series — Master Your Machine
Our comprehensive three-part video training covers everything from initial hardware setup to advanced programming. Each video includes a complete transcript and key takeaways for quick reference.
Video 1: Hardware Tour & Machine Setup
Duration: ~15 minutes | Topics: Component identification, cable & air line connections, and initial power-on procedure.
This first video provides a complete hardware walkthrough of the automatic screw tightening machine. It demonstrates how to connect the power supply (220V AC), signal cables (3-core and 4-core), and the air pressure system including the compressor and pneumatic lines. You will learn the function of every button on the control panel — start, stop, reset, emergency stop, motor test, and cylinder up/down switches. The video also covers the screw feeder module, CCD camera, ring sensor, working head components (nozzle and batch rod), and how to replace the screw removal head when needed. Safety warnings about proper machine startup and shutdown are emphasized throughout.
Key Takeaways
- Connect power (220V AC), signal cables, and air pressure lines correctly
- Understand the screw feeder controller — do not modify factory voltage/frequency settings
- Identify all control panel switches: Start, Stop, Reset, Emergency, Motor Test, Cylinder Up/Down, Screw Feed, Air Blow
- Learn to replace wearing parts: batch rod and working head nozzle
- Always press Reset before powering off to return the working head to origin
Video 2: Controller Programming & Coordinate Teaching
Duration: ~20 minutes | Topics: Language switching, program creation, coordinate teaching, and parameter configuration.
This video is the core programming tutorial. It walks through how to switch the controller language to English (Menu 4 → Page 4 → Option 6 → Option 2), how to create a new program by pressing the '#' key and entering a program name, and how to understand the default parameter interface. Detailed explanations cover: screw tightening cycle time (1.5 seconds max), dwell time (0.1 sec), float lock judgment time (0.2 sec), safety height (20mm from product surface), and XYZ movement speeds (X:600, Y:500, Z:400). The video demonstrates how to clamp the product (Menu 3 → Page 2 → Option 7 → Option 5 → Set to 1), then teach screw hole coordinates by aligning the red cursor on the CCD camera display and pressing the Location key. The three-speed switch for manual movement is also covered.
Key Takeaways
- Switch controller language: Stop + Menu 1 → Menu 4 → Page 4 → Option 6 → Option 2 (English)
- Create a new program: Press '#' key, switch input method with '#' again, enter name, press Enter
- Critical parameters: Safety height = 20mm, Lock cycle = 1.5s, Dwell = 0.1s, Float lock = 0.2s
- Clamp product: Menu 3 → Page 2 → Option 7 → Option 5 → Set 1
- Teach coordinates: Align red cursor to screw hole center → Press Location key
- Always return to origin (Reset) before powering off
Video 3: Fixture Setup & Product Changeover
Duration: ~18 minutes | Topics: Adjustable fixture configuration, product clamping, program naming conventions, and restoring defaults.
The third video focuses on practical application. It demonstrates how to adjust the cylinder fixture for different LED module sizes (up to 500×500mm), how to place support blocks, and how to load two smaller modules (e.g., 320×160mm) on a single platform. The safe clamping procedure is emphasized — always check that hands are clear before entering "1" to activate the pneumatic clamp. The video also covers: creating programs for specific products (e.g., P3.84 50×50), switching input methods for program naming (digit → lowercase → uppercase → Chinese pinyin), opening existing programs, and how to restore factory default parameters if accidentally deleted (Menu 1 → Page 1 → Option 1: Generate Default Parameters).
Key Takeaways
- Adjust cylinder fixture and support blocks for any LED module up to 500×500mm
- Place two 320×160mm modules simultaneously on one platform
- Safety warning: Keep hands away from clamping area before activating
- Name programs by product (e.g., P3.84, P4, P5) using the "#" key to switch input methods
- Restore default parameters: Menu 1 → Page 1 → Option 1 → OK
- Always verify parameters match the values shown in the video tutorials

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is an automatic screw tightening machine?
An automatic screw tightening machine is an industrial automation system that automatically feeds, positions, and tightens screws into products. The JHIMS machine uses servo motors, ball screws, and linear guides with ±0.02mm repeat accuracy. It is specifically designed for LED module assembly and electronics manufacturing, handling screws from M0.6 to M2.0 at speeds up to 5,000 screws per hour.
What types of screws can the JHIMS screw tightening machine handle?
The machine handles screws from M0.6 to M2.0 for the 2P-LXS500 model, and M0.8 to M2.0 for the 2P-ZXS320 model. This covers most LED module assembly requirements. Custom configurations for non-standard screw sizes are available upon request — contact our engineering team for details.
How fast is the screw tightening process?
The cycle time is 0.9-1.2 seconds per 2 screws. Maximum throughput reaches 5,000 screws per hour for single-station models (2P-LXS500) and 11,000 units per hour for dual back-to-back configurations (4P-ZXS320). Actual speed depends on screw size, product complexity, and program settings.
Can the machine handle different LED module sizes?
Yes. The adjustable fixture supports LED modules up to 500×500mm (2P-LXS500) or 320×320mm per station (2P-ZXS320). The cylinder fixture can be repositioned to accommodate different module sizes, and support blocks can be rearranged for various form factors. Multiple smaller modules can be placed on a single platform simultaneously.
How do I program the machine for a new product?
Programming is done via the handheld controller. Create a new program by pressing the '#' key, switch input methods with '#' to enter a program name, then press Enter. Use the CCD camera and X/Y directional keys to align the red cursor with each screw hole center, then press the Location key to record coordinates. The machine stores up to 999 programs with 999 coordinate points each. CAD file import is also available. Watch Video 2 for a complete walkthrough.
What maintenance does the machine require?
Regular maintenance includes: cleaning the vibrating feeder and screw track weekly, checking and replacing the batch rod (a wearing part) when slippage occurs, inspecting pneumatic connections for leaks, calibrating the ring sensor sensitivity, and keeping the linear guides lubricated. Wearing parts like the working head nozzle and batch rod should be replaced after extended use. Refer to our Operation Manuals for detailed maintenance schedules.
What warranty and after-sales support does JHIMS provide?
JHIMS provides a standard 12-month warranty on all screw tightening machines. After-sales support includes online video training, remote technical assistance via WhatsApp/Teams, and optional on-site installation and training services. Spare parts and wearing components are always in stock for fast delivery.
How do I switch the controller language to English?
Press and hold the Stop button, then press Menu 1 simultaneously to open Menu 4. Navigate to Page 4 (press Next Page three times), select Option 6 (Language Setting), press OK, then select Option 2 for English. The interface will switch automatically. The detailed steps are shown in Video 2.
What safety features are included?
Safety features include: emergency stop switch (immediate power cut), pneumatic clamping safety interlock, automatic reset-to-origin requirement on startup, cylinder movement safeguards, and automatic torque detection with alarm. Important: Always press the Reset button before powering off the machine — this returns the working head to its origin position and prevents it from falling onto the product.
What is the expected return on investment (ROI)?
Most customers recover their investment within 6-12 months. The machine reduces labor costs by approximately 50% (replacing 2-3 manual operators), increases production output by 40%, and reduces rework rates by 30%. A Shenzhen LED manufacturer reported doubling production volume with zero quality loss within 3 months of installation.
