A rotary torque sensor is an instrument for measuring dynamic torque with fastening applications. When paired with a torque analyzer, the rotary torque sensor is the ideal torque auditing tool for testing the torque applied to a fastener for assembly applications. It’s an instrument that quickly attaches to a power tool’s drive without interfering with…
You don’t want to be surprised by a torque wrench or torque screwdriver deemed “out of calibration.” After all, torque tools are precision instruments used to tighten critical, often safety-sensitive fasteners. Torque screwdrivers and wrenches go out of calibration with use. These hand tools should be tested and calibrated frequently based on the tool usage…
Do you use fine-thread fasteners that are susceptible to cross-threading events? You can utilize the “free reverse” function with the Mountz smart electric screwdrivers systems. This feature starts a fastener in the reverse direction for a preset number of rotations and RPM setting to allow the fastener to be fine with the thread. Then smart…
Manufacturers must measure torque 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 both hand and power tools. Engineers and calibration technicians can use the devices for various torque testing and auditing methods. Measuring…
How do you prevent an over-torque event for a fastening application? The FGC torque wrench is engineered with a cam-over technology and prevents over-torque. The cam-over mechanism physically prevents the operator from over-torquing fasteners. Selecting a poka-yoke tool improves process control and reduces scrap rates. Fastening bolts with a click wrench expose manufacturers to a…
Do you need an easy means to view a graphical representation of the fastening joint? The Mountz EPT and ECT smart electric screwdriver systems offer this function. The graphing features with EPC-10 and ECT controllers allow you to view in display in real-time the graph of the torque, speed, and angle data. Collect and store…
When testing the torque calibration of a tool, you can set up a target for the tool along with the tolerance percentage of that torque setting. The EZ-TorQ III torque analyzer’s touchscreen interface makes it simple and easy to set up torque testing parameters for a tool. Regular quality control programs like tool calibration and…
When fastening long screws with the EC or ECT smart electric screwdrivers, are you looking for efficiency and accuracy? The auto-customizing feature learns the characteristic of the rundown and will automatically program the free angle. This process allows the tool to operate at a high RPM and then automatically slow down to a low fastening…
With select Mountz brushless electric screwdrivers, it offers a soft start speed function. This feature allows you to set the initial speed ramp for a fastening application. You adjust the starting speed of an electric screwdriver for a slow rotation, which allows for smooth engagement between fasteners and parts. It helps prevent cross-threading events. The…
How do you select a precision torque wrench when comparing the technology and quality differences between a click wrench and a cam-over wrench? Each wrench mechanism design limits the amount of torque an operator applies. The type of torque limiting mechanism is what separates these wrenches in ensuring accuracy and precision. Applying the correct torque to each…
