Assembly processes generate a vast amount of fastening data in real-time that can provide valuable information to aid manufacturers in making more intelligent process decisions and minimizing quality failures while maximizing productivity. A smart torque control system equipped with a transducer constantly measures torque in real time and feeds data into the system. In-process monitoring…
Error-proofing the fastening process improves manufacturers’ quality control process by reducing the number of defective products pulled from the assembly line and hedging the risk of liability from product failures in the field. A screw rattling loose in the avionics of a high-performance jet or from an implanted medical device can cause significant liability and…
The accurate measurement of torque applied to rotating drives and fastening applications is an important criterion for evaluating production efficiency and quality assurance in manufacturing and assembly. There are many process monitoring applications that require rotary style torque sensor be used to capture and record traceable measurement results. A rotary torque sensor is a finely…
