Every day we go about our lives, unaware of the vital role torque plays in our safety. Tightening down a bolt until it “feels tight” is no way to guarantee quality and safety. A proper production and quality assurance system is needed to ensure products and services meet today’s high demands. A dial torque wrench…
Specifying a fastening sequence is a good manufacturing procedure to implement for many assembly projects. It can be critical for key torque applications. The wrong sequence could cause manufacturing failures and add additional rework expenses. The sequence of tightening bolts or screws can have a major influence on the resulting preloads. A good tightening sequence ensures…
A poorly designed and functioning assembly worksite leads to potential employee injuries and additional expenses can incur. With large volume manufacturing facilities, power tools are often used for tightening down fasteners. Assembly power tools increase productivity and reduce manufacturing costs. Tools that operate at high speeds increase risk factors. Power tools generally produce unwanted torque…
Manufacturing facilities are equipped with various torque tools for handling all the different fastening applications at that site. Hand and assembly power tools are being operated daily. Performing tool calibrations in the lab and torque audits in the production area requires a multitude of torque sensors and measuring equipment. Often when quality engineers or calibration…
Assembly applications that require the manufacturing staff to tighten fasteners time after time, a power tool is often the tool of choice. Electric torque screwdrivers are designed to increase productivity and repeatable torque control. Mountz electric screwdrivers are built to automatically shut-off once the preset torque value is reached and provide precision repeatability. A Mountz…
Measuring torque doesn’t stop once the assembly process is complete. Often a torque verification process is needed. Torque auditing validates the fastening process, the torque tool, the product design and the materials used for the application. The Mountz SDX torque sensor is an instrument designed for torque auditing, verification or tightening fasteners. The SDX sensor…
Torque is a force people rarely recognize as they go about their day. There is torque that is applied and torque that is measured. With the Mountz dial torque screwdrivers, measuring torque is simple and ensures a proper production and quality assurance system. A dial indicating torque screwdriver is designed for torque evaluation and torque…
Any manufacturing application that requires a threaded fastener to be tightened needs torque control. Selecting the proper manual torque screwdriver for the torque application may seem like a daunting and confusing process at times. With manual torque screwdrivers there are two general options. The type of fastening application tends to dictate which tool is best…
