Chapter 1. Overview
1.1. Introduction
Above all, thank you for purchasing FAC-5700TC.
FAC-5700TC, installed at the end of manufacturing line to be used for production instrument
and automatic packing machine etc in general, is used in total enumeration and selection of
produced products. This instrument determines excess or deficiency of the quantity of
products in a bundle based on the standard weight value of the product, or identifies whether
any component or accessory lacks or not. In addition, this instrument prevents shipping of
defects like insufficient or excessive weight by determining product weight, and manages
produced quantity by analyzing measured values or feeds back calibrated value to production
equipment. Through such processes, this instrument ensures efficient management of
production process and prevention of raw material loss while simultaneously protecting
consumers from defective products.
FAC-5700TC can be applied to production of various product groups like food, confectionary,
drinks, detergents organic chemicals and sintered products and more. In addition, the
instrument can also be applied to various package conditions like pouch, carton box, PE, non-
pack etc, and can be used in the measurement and selection of products.
This USER MANUAL describes the functions and using method of FAC-5700TC. Peruse this
USER MANUAL before using the instrument for proper operation of the instrument.
☞The specification of this product and the contents of this MANUAL may change without
notice for improvement of the performance and functions.
☞The contents of this USER MANUAL may not be reproduced, duplicated or translated in

1.3. Pre-cautions
1.3.1 Touch Screen Related Pre-cautions
1) Since the instrument is of touch type, take caution not to let LCD screen stained with
foreign matters while using.
(In case of pollution, mal-operation may occur.)
2) Do NOT press the screen forcefully.
3) Use the instrument by touching the screen with fingertip.
(Do NOT use sharp auger or nail etc on the screen. Otherwise, the product may be
damaged.)
4) Do NOT arbitrarily paint color or attach sticker etc on the screen.
5) Wipe LCD screen lightly with soft cloth.
(Do NOT use chemical or detergent etc to wipe.)
1.3.2.Instrument Related Pre-caution
1) Do not measure instrument of excessive weight or size beyond standard.
2) Maintain the instrument clean always.
3) If voltage fluctuates severely, measurement error may occur. Use stable power source.
4) Measurement part is installed on weight sensor. Do not apply shock or load beyond
standard.
5) In case of modifying the structure of measurement part arbitrarily, measurement
precision may drop. Do NOT remodel measurement part.
6) For safety, driving and stopping of conveyor and opening and closing of control box can
be done only by designated manager.
7) Check the weight with standard balance before production.

6
1.4. Installation and Functional Check
1) Maintain the conveyor of automatic weight sorting device level with ground by all means.
For adjustment to level condition, tighten up fixing nut to prevent shaking while
adjusting the four legs mounted at the bottom of automatic weight sorting device to level
condition.
2) Vibration and wind etc may cause measurement error. Take caution to keep off such
elements.
3) For smooth entrance and discharge of measured object, place each conveyor in cascade
style. For stable measurement, place entrance part conveyor 0.5 to 1.0mm above
measurement part. If the height is low, shock may be applied to measurement part when
measured object enters followed by weight measurement error and reduction of weight
sensor lifespan.
4) Used Voltage: Single phase AC220V 50/60Hz ±10% (For other specification, contact head
office.)
* Install the instrument in separation from power.
* Install ground by all means.
4) Optimum Temperature: 5℃~35℃[41℉~95℉], ±2℃/hr
5) Optimum Humidity: 35％~ 85％RH
6) Function Check
①Perform checking of functions frequently as well as test-driving and re-installation.
②Check for presence of abnormality of lamp, motor, air solenoid valve and boozer.
③Keep conveyor clean off foreign matters.

4.1.1 Dynamic Calibration Constant
Dynamic calibration constant is the constant that calibrates the value measured during
conveyance in case the weight value measured as product is conveyed during conveyor
operation and that of the product at standstill differ.
Weight value during conveyance
X dynamic calibration constant(n.nnnnn) ≒1 that is, Dynamic
calibration

(n.nnnnn)
≒Weigh tvalue at

Dynamic calibration constant can be obtained in two methods: the method calculating by
theoretic expression and that of obtaining through experiment after putting in arbitrary

dynamic calibration constant. Let’s look into each method through the following example.
Example)
The method of obtaining dynamic calibration constant in case weight at standstill
is 1,000g and the average weight during conveyance is 1,004g
Method 1) Method of calculating by theoretic expression
Dynamic
calibration
constant ≒Weight value at standstill (1,000g) ≒0.99601
(n.nnnnn)
Weight value during conveyance (1,010g)
Method 2) Method of calculating through experiment value
Put in arbitrary dynamic calibration constant with default value of 1.00000, and
compare the weight value during conveyance and that at standstill. And to eliminate
the difference value, repeat the process of modifying dynamic calibration constant
value and checking the change of difference value. At this time, if the weight value
during conveyance is greater than that at standstill, lower dynamic calibration
constant below previous value. If the weight value during conveyance is less than
that at standstill on the contrary, raise dynamic calibration value above previous
value.
Since initial calibration value is 1.00000 and the weight value during conveyance is
greater than that at standstill 1,000g, lower the value of dynamic calibration
constant to about 0.99500. And repeat the process of modifying the value of
dynamic calibration constant by raising or lowering it after comparing the weight
value at standstill and that during conveyance.
At first, adjust the value by the unit of 0.00500 through 0.00100, and then adjust
by the unit of 0.0050 through 0.00010.
If 99601 is put in, the screen will display 0.99601.
* The dynamic calibration constant
obtained through
calculation by theoretic expression and that gained through
calculation by experiment value may not be equal.
