Six Tips for Establishing a Quality Torque Control Program

Apply Torque, Measure TorqueBy Mountz Torque August 14, 2014

In the manufacturing and assembly world, tightening, controlling, and measuring torque are imperative for production efficiency and reducing manufacturing costs. A fastener inadequately tightened can vibrate or work loose: conversely, if the tension is too high, the fastener can snap or strip its threads. Faced with these problems, manufacturers are realizing that precise torque control…

Low-Torque Electric Screwdrivers Provide Exceptional Fastening Capability

Apply TorqueBy Mountz Torque June 4, 2014

The threads of a metric flat head screw spiral downward as an assembly operator fastens a medical instrument together. Is the proper torque control being used to keep that life saving medical device together? Tightening down a bolt or screw until it “feels tight enough” is not adequate torque control. That mentality is the path…

Prevent Premature Tool Failures with a Routine Maintenance Plan
