As manufacturing ramps for a product, engineers often search for tooling options to increase productivity, lower costs, and reduce potential torque failures. Power-driven screwdrivers are suitable for an assortment of assembly applications. Electric torque screwdrivers are designed for precision torque control and to ensure product quality, cost savings, and reduced assembly failures. Screws and bolts…
Whether you’re a production line manager or quality manager, improving your production is a constant project. That means finding cost-effective ways to increase speed and decrease lost products. When you’re working with products that are held together with threaded fasteners, managers often find room for improvement with their fastening systems. That doesn’t necessarily mean shutting…
The difference is quality. Companies invest in torque tools to improve their products’ quality. Using torque tools, manufacturers and service professionals can ensure that each fastener they touch will not fail due to being too loose or tight. Often, a company’s reputation and market share depend on the reliability of its products. Human lives depend on…
In the intricate world of controlled manufacturing environments, where precision and cleanliness are paramount, the choice of tools plays a pivotal role. Dust, microbes, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and pollutants are adversaries that must be meticulously managed in industries such as semiconductors, medical devices, aerospace and defense, and optics. Cleanrooms, foreign object debris (FOD) control…
What is an impact wrench? It is a wrench that uses a discontinuous drive clutch system and compressed air to achieve torque. Impact wrenches are commonly used worldwide. They are often used to tighten lug nuts on cars for tire changes. Impact wrenches, with their “hammering” design, are destructive by nature. Due to the lack…
Electric screwdrivers are an effective solution for manufacturing engineers to mitigate manufacturing risks, low productivity, and high product scrap rates. As production demands ramp up, electric torque screwdrivers allow manufacturers to increase productivity, lower costs, and reduce product defects. Power-driven screwdrivers provide precision torque control, improve production efficiency, and improve process reliability. These assembly tools…
There are various “Preset” and “Adjustable” torque screwdrivers, but selecting the correct hand screwdriver for your application depends on your process requirements. Preset torque screwdrivers are ideal for production applications where consistent torque is critical. Adjustable screwdrivers are suitable for fastening applications where quick torque setting adjustments are necessary for fasteners of different sizes. Preset…
Fastening regimes with multiple screws are susceptible to fastening failures such as cross-threading, cam-outs, stripped screws, omissions, and unfinished rundowns. A screw counting process is an error-prevention technique that allows an engineer to detect and eliminate costly screw-fastening errors during the assembly process. Monitoring the fastening process allows production managers to correct fastening errors rather…
