Tool arms and balancers can help protect your workers from injuries.

How to Improve Ergonomics in the Workplace With Tool Arms and Balancers

ErgonomicsBy Mountz TorqueDecember 12, 2018

Since the day we figured out the wheel, humans have separated ourselves by working smarter, not harder. After all, our bodies can only take so much. There’s no way we could transport, lift, and stack the granite and limestone of the pyramids without barges, ramps, and pulleys. Modern electric screwdrivers allow workers to manufacture the…

Using the right assembly tools can make a big difference in production.

Finding the Right Assembly Tools for Your Production Line

Process Control, Productivity, Quality, Torque ScrewdriverBy Mountz TorqueDecember 10, 2018

Without the right assembly tools, you don’t have a production line. It’s the tools, after all, that allow your workers to assemble the pieces into a product. That doesn’t mean that finding the right tools is easy, though; each product is different, each factory is different, and there are hundreds of different tool options. How…

Multi-pass capable tool controllers are good choices for complex assemblies.

Solving Complex Assemblies With Multi-Pass Capable Tool Controllers

Manufacturing, Process Control, Productivity, QualityBy Mountz TorqueDecember 6, 2018

Smart window fans this week. Then smart floor lamps next month. After that, it’s a dual job; half the stations on the toaster ovens, half the stations on the air conditioners. Each product comes with its own set of specifications, its own production sequence. Reconfiguring the floor for each setup will be tricky, but that’s…

When it comes to event lighting and sound, proper torque control is essential.

Torque Tools Ensure Safe Event Lighting and Sound Setup

Process Control, Quality, Torque WrenchBy Mountz TorqueDecember 3, 2018

When Van Halen toured, they included in their contract a singular technical demand: bowls of M&M’s backstage, with all the brown ones removed. Rock star arrogance and capriciousness? Actually, no. The shows they put on were complex and technical, involving excessively heavy staging and sometimes explosive pyrotechnics. So when David Lee Roth would find brown…

Torque testers and torque sensors allow you to measure torque output from robotic drivers.

How to Measure Torque Output from Robotic Tool Drivers

Measure Torque, Process ControlBy Mountz TorqueNovember 28, 2018

Robots are known for repeatability. Programmed to perform mathematically-defined actions, as opposed to the associative actions taken by human operators, they will make nearly identical motions, over and over, for as long as they’re running. At least, that’s how the story goes on paper. In the real world, parts wear due to friction, lubrication dries…

ulse drivers are an excellent choice for aircraft repair work.

When Pulse Drivers Are the Best Tool for the Job

Power Assembly Tools, Process Control, QualityBy Mountz TorqueNovember 26, 2018

Can you open a can with a hammer? Sure. But it would probably be easier with a can opener. Special jobs take special tools; using the right tool for your job saves effort and increases productivity. In the business world, specifically in manufacturing or equipment service and repair, saving effort and increasing productivity means lowering…

It's important to have the proper torque calibration equipment.

A Guide to Understanding Torque Calibration Equipment

Process Control, Quality, Torque CalibrationBy Mountz TorqueNovember 14, 2018

You don’t have to be a maestro to know that no matter how grand your piano is, you can’t play it if it’s out of tune. It’s similar when you’re working with torque tools; you can’t properly tighten your fasteners if your tools aren’t in calibration. In fields like manufacturing and maintenance, tightening fasteners is…

Telescopic tool arms can greatly improve ergonomics in the workplace.

Improving Ergonomics in the Workplace With Telescopic Tool Arms

Ergonomics, ProductivityBy Mountz TorqueNovember 12, 2018

Imagine your job is lifting a five pound weight. Pretty easy, right? Most healthy adults don’t have an issue picking up something that light or even holding it about their heads for a few minutes. Pick it up, put it down, go home, get your paycheck. Unfortunately, your boss knows how easy it is for…

Cam-over wrenches are an excellent choice for roller coaster assembly.

Why Torque Tools Are Essential for Safe Roller Coaster Assembly

Power Assembly Tools, Process Control, Quality, Torque WrenchBy Mountz TorqueNovember 6, 2018

Roller coasters are thrilling. Riders soar and dive and flip upside down. They get blasted out of tunnels and splashed down through ponds. It’s an experience that causes people to grip their handrails, white-knuckled, to scream in terror, to pant for breath, and, when it’s over, to laugh. The intended effect is to expose riders…

Calibrate with Ease Using the Validator Torque Wrench Tester

Torque TestingBy Mountz TorqueNovember 5, 2018

As a precision technician, you use a torque wrench to achieve the exact tightness you need to extract maximum performance. However, the only way you can be sure a fastener is tight enough to resist vibration, but not so tight as to strip the threads or stretch the bolt beyond its yield point, is through…
