As repetitive strain injuries, like carpal tunnel syndrome, continue to increase in the assembly workplace, awareness of ergonomic solutions should be on the radar for many companies. If not, the cost for workers’ compensation claims will become a costly and growing issue. According to OSHA, “repetitive stress injuries (RSI), comprise more than one hundred different…
A pulse tool has the speed of an impact wrench with nearly the repeatability of a clutch based shut-off torque tool. Containing precision-machined parts the pulse unit is a sealed chamber that is filled with a formulated hydraulic fluid. Pulse blades with a custom designed precision roller push the fluid inside the rotating chamber generating…
The CLD pneumatic torque multiplier provides precision tightening and loosening of all heavy-duty fastening connections. The torque multiplier shuts-off when the pre-set torque is achieved. It’s non-impacting and operates at a smooth, continuous rotation. The pneumatic wrench increases speed and productivity, as it is faster than a hydraulic wrench and is less expensive. The tool…
Torque measurement is paramount for many manufacturers. Simply running a fastener or bolt down until it’s snug and tight and assuming the torque control process is complete, is no longer sufficient. Measuring torque doesn’t stop once the assembly process is complete. As part of the overall quality control process, manufacturers should include a “Torque Auditing” program.…
How often do you find loose screws at home with household items? May seem like a simple nuisance, but not too costly for you to fix. For the US Air Force and Toyota, loose screws and improper torque control have recently proven to be costly and critical key issues. Last week, Toyota announced a recall…
