Mountz was asked by a long time Aerospace customer who was looking to increase their productivity. In its manufacturing operation, the aerospace company was using light assembly electric torque screwdrivers to build the power modules that sit under the middle seat in each row of the plane to enable passengers to charge their devices. With…
There are no hard and fast answers to this question since there are several points to consider. These include the frequency of use, general care, ambient conditions, and the torque setting of the power tool. The type of fastening process must be considered as well. An airplane assembly company may undergo rigorous daily testing whereas…

Give the average person an electric screw gun, torque gun, or other power fastening tool and their first impulse will be to tighten a fastener as much as they possibly can. Often to the point that electric motors groan, sparks are struck, and fasteners break or twist apart. Experienced workers may do the same in…
Airlines operate in a high-pressure environment. They are in constant competition for customers and operate on very tight schedules with little leeway. Refits of aircraft in an airline’s fleet must happen in order to keep fliers satisfied and continuing to fly with the airline. At the same time, airlines cannot afford to have their aircraft…
Torque sensors measure the torque output of hand and power tools, as well as calibrating torque tools. They work together with torque analyzers, which interpret the results. These tests are intended to verify the calibration of hand, electric, and pneumatic torque screwdrivers and nutrunners. Companies which rely on torque tools can reduce lost product and…
As essential automotive repair tools, torque wrenches prevent accidents. By measuring and controlling the amount of force they apply to bolts, torque wrenches can guarantee that wheels stay on their hubs, the crankshaft keeps spinning, and cars don’t veer off the road. Properly maintaining a vehicle requires the right tools, and torque wrenches are indispensable…
When many people think of manufacturing, they picture a large plant where hundreds to thousands of workers queue up in a line to punch in for their shift. While these factories do exist, they are few and belong to a select group with customer bases large enough to support such massive productions. Instead, most manufacturing…
