Rexroth IPM Protocol
This chapter describes the communication between the tightening controller and a superior system for
the process and measurement data acquisition via the Rexroth IPM Protocol. The Rexroth IPM Protocol
is used for transferring tightening results and tightening graphs to a system for integrated process data
management (IPM) via TCP/IP.
The "IPM" application package has standardized interfaces via which devices of different manufacturers
automatically transmit their values to the IPM software. In this way, Rexroth IPM Protocol helps to avoid
heterogeneous software architectures and to link quality-relevant information from different parts of the
production chain.
Rexroth IPM Protocol is a data protocol for the communication with an IPM communication partner that
must imperatively be installed in the overall system. This IPM communication partner is, however, no
Bosch Rexroth product. The IPM communication partner is an application package consisting of gateway,
server, database and web interface for visualization, analysis and archiving. The application package
consists of the following components, see Fig.
•
IPM gateway and IPM server
The IPM gateway receives the measurement data (telegrams) of the Rexroth 350 tightening system
and checks it for correctness and then sends it to the IPM server. The IPM server sends the data to
the database.
There are 1…n IPM gateways and IPM servers whereas they always exist as pairs in a 1:1
relationship.
•
IPM database
In the IPM database, the measurement data is stored. The IPM web interface retrieves any necessary
information from the database. Currently, all Oracle versions from 8.x are supported. Installation on
other databases is, however, also possible.
•
IPM web interface
The IPM web interface provides the user with numerous data analysis possibilities. Via a browser, the
IPM web interface is available without any installation on the client side.
Rexroth IPM Protocol is supported from version V2.200 of the
Rexroth Tightening System 350
.
IPM output of torque values is always with two decimals.
IPM version 5 is supported as of version V2.500 of the Rexroth Tightening System 350.
IPM version 6 is supported as of version V2.700 of the Rexroth Tightening System 350.
In order to use the Rexroth IPM Protocol, a CF350 (memory card) must be inserted in the Compact
System (CS) or the communication unit (KE).
