Brushless electric screwdrivers are an effective solution for engineers to mitigate manufacturing risks, low productivity, and high product scrap rates. As production demands ramp up, electric torque screwdrivers allow manufacturers to increase productivity, lower costs, and reduce product defects. Electric torque screwdrivers are designed for precision torque control and to ensure product quality, cost savings, and reduced assembly failures. Screws and bolts that are not correctly torqued can vibrate loose, and excessive torque can strip threaded fasteners or damaged parts.
An electric screwdriver with a brushed motor incurs frequent maintenance intervals and costs that impede manufacturing efficiency and production output. Keeping power tools operating at total capacity is an essential objective for a manufacturing engineer to ensure productivity doesn’t falter.
Electric screwdrivers with brushless motors are engineered for higher efficiency and performance. Brushless power tools are less susceptible to mechanical wear than their brushed motor counterparts. The brushless motor solves many of the limitations of brushed motors by combining higher output power, better heat dissipation and efficiency, more comprehensive operating speed ranges, and low electrical noise operation.
The LF-Series brushless electric screwdrivers are built for tightening small screws, nuts and bolts. These mechanical clutch screwdrivers offer excellent fastening capability. The low-torque electric screwdrivers provide automatic shutoff capabilities for sensitive electronics or other low-torque applications. The electric screwdriver automatically stops when the preset torque value is achieved.
These durable assembly tools increase productivity and enhance product quality through precision torque control and user comfort. Mountz offers various models of the LF-Series tool, ranging from 0.8 to 15.6 inch pounds. These assembly tools are often used for light assembly applications in aerospace, electronics, and medical manufacturing industries. The ESD-safe tool prevents electrostatic discharge, which improves production yields, manufacturing costs, product quality, product reliability, reputation, and profitability. The versatile torque driver features an external torque adjustment scale, allowing easy torque adjustment.
When selecting an electric torque screwdriver, you don’t need to worry about an air compressor, air hose, filter, regulator, or lubricator. The nuisances of operating a pneumatic tool, such as air pressure fluctuations in the airline, are eliminated. This ensures a smooth manufacturing process, as the tool is easy to manage and maintains consistent performance and torque accuracy.
Benefits of a Brushless Low-Torque Electric Screwdriver
- Various models range from 0.8 – 15.6 lbf.in (9.8 – 117.6 cN.m)
- Designed to increase production rates and provide precision torque control, the electric screwdriver automatically stops when the preset torque has been reached.
- An ESD-safe tool prevents electrostatic discharge, improving production yields, manufacturing costs, product quality, product reliability, reputation, and profitability.
- Ensures accuracy in fastening with precision automatic shut-off clutch once preset torque is achieved.
- It features a low-voltage, heavy-duty brush-style motor design.
- The external torque adjustment scale allows team leaders to change torque quickly and easily. For an extra layer of error-proofing, add a torque coverthat prevents operators from making adjustments without approval, preventing mistakes.
- Models are available in lever start and push-to-start configurations.
- LF-Series drivers can be connected with the Scout Screw Counter for an additional layer of error-proofing.
Electric screwdrivers are faster than hand tools and more precise than air tools, making them the smart choice for high-volume manufacturers who want to increase productivity and improve process control.
