Mountz FG-IFR (Impact Free Resetting) preset screwdrivers use a cam-over mechanism to improve process control and productivity. The unique IFR cam over design provides a low-impact reset mechanism, ideal for assembling shock-sensitive components that reduce the vibration transmitted in the screw tightening process—ideal for fastening delicate parts such as electronics, plastics, and medical devices. Torque…
Over time and daily usage, a torque tool will eventually deliver more or less torque than intended. Relying only on time-based calibration intervals for torque tools exposes manufacturers to risks. Discovering the device is found out of calibration generates uncertainty. How long has the tool been used to tighten fasteners while out of calibration? The…
Manufacturers experiencing excessive scrap-causing mistakes is a signal of an assembly process control issue. How can engineers and quality teams actively work to reduce the amount of scrap generated from a poor fastening process? With a process improvement initiative, manufacturers can minimize and eliminate waste and improve processes in operation. Advances in torque fastening technology…
Implementing a solution that prevents over-torque events is critical for engineers to reduce scrap rate costs. Applying the right amount of torque to each fastener maximizes its holding potential. Over-torquing a fastener generates risks of fastening failures and damaged products. Applying too much force while tightening a fastener can result in over-stretching a bolt, stripping…
Mountz Torque FG -OWC (one-way clutch) torque screwdrivers use a one-way torque clutch system designed to apply torque in one direction and remain positive in the opposite direction, which allows the tool to be used for easy screw removal. Torque range suitable for micro, low, and medium torque applications. The FG-OWC screwdriver is an ideal…
Production planning for torque application with micro-sized fasteners requires an engineer to find a solution to mitigate product scrap risks. It doesn’t require much force to over-torque miniature fasteners. Critical fastening assemblies, such as navigation systems for high-performance aircraft, automobiles, and machine tools, a product failure can cause severe quality issues. The rework time and…
Regular tool calibration and torque testing processes ensure repeatable accuracy and adherence to international standards. With its easy-to-use touch-screen interface, the Mountz EZ-TorQ III torque analyzer provides quick and easy torque tool validation and calibration. The small and portable battery-powered EZ TorQ III can be used on the assembly line to spot-check a tool’s calibration…
