What is the relationship between torque and friction? The process of fastening a screw or bolt involves various elements. The friction behavior between the fastener and the joint is crucial for securing the desired clamp load. Torque and friction go together like peanut butter and jelly or nuts and bolts. With the torque control assembly…
In the intricate world of controlled manufacturing environments, where precision and cleanliness are paramount, the choice of tools plays a pivotal role. Dust, microbes, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and pollutants are adversaries that must be meticulously managed in industries such as semiconductors, medical devices, aerospace and defense, and optics. Cleanrooms, foreign object debris (FOD) control…

ESD safe tool prevents electrostatic discharge and maintains a surface resistance within the range of 10? to 10? Ohms, ensuring compliance with ESD…
You don’t want to be surprised by a torque screwdriver or wrench deemed “out of calibration.” After all, torque tools are precision instruments that tighten critical, often safety-sensitive fasteners. Torque wrenches and screwdrivers go out of calibration with use. These hand tools should be regularly tested and calibrated based on the tool usage cycle to…
Manufacturing high-volume products—such as microelectronics, medical devices, or appliances—requires speed and precision. After all, hundreds of thousands of identical products have to be assembled and fastened correctly with mini screws, in as little time as possible. Mountz’s Mini MDT-Series transducerized smart screwdriver systems provide manufacturers with the latest micro torque fastening system with error-proofing technology…
Measuring torque is essential for manufacturers to ensure a product’s quality, safety, and reliability aren’t compromised. A torque sensor is a finely tuned instrument for testing and tool calibration. Torque sensors measure the torque output of hand and power tools. Engineers and calibration technicians can use the devices for various torque testing and auditing methods.…
Manufacturing products in a cleanroom presents many challenges. Tightening fasteners in a cleanroom environment demands specialized screwdrivers that prevent contamination and grease leakage. The Mountz cleanroom screwdrivers are manufactured using a high-grade, low-outgassing powder coat. The tools feature dynamic wear-resistant internal seals to prevent grease leakage and minimize airborne contamination. Cleanroom Air Quality Requirements In…
The manufacturing landscape is a realm of intricate processes where precision and attention to detail are paramount. In this environment, the imperceptible threat of Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can wreak havoc on product integrity and reliability. The article explores the significance of choosing anti-static production torque tools, delving deeper into the nuances of ESD, its potential…
