Built for high production environments, FlexPower pulse tools provide durability, power and speed for most industrial assembly applications. To maintain consistent accuracy, the torque output for pulse tools must be verified periodically. You should also validate the actual torque being applied to the fastener by auditing the joint application. The goal for auditing is to…
Pulse tools increase productivity and enhance product quality through precision torque control and user comfort. Regular tool calibration ensures repeatable accuracy and adherence to international standards. A pulse tool is a power tool that must be properly calibrated and maintained. Torque testing ensures the pulse tool is operating at peak performance and can highlight any potential…
The ability to audit joints such as flanges with gaskets is important for critical applications where leakage or rupturing of the connection can have disastrous, costly or environmental implications. Auditing is a preventative quality measure and is a required part of an ISO or other quality management system. Auditing large bolts is very difficult. Use…
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.…
The Torquemate® FTA-100 is a torque tester by Mountz, Inc. designed for torque testing and calibrating torque tools. The digital torque tester provides exceptional accuracy for measuring torque on various torque tools including pulse tools, hand screwdrivers, torque wrenches and power assembly tools. The small size and portability of the torque analyzer makes it ideal…
Robotics, computerization, and electronic mechanization have brought state-of-the-art automation to modern industrial plants. Thus, the need to perform quality control testing and torque measurement is even more critical to achieve a return-on-investment. Quality control testing has been neglected or downplayed by manufacturers for many years; however, a greater need for high-quality merchandise and competitive pricing…
A heater manufacturing company was experiencing improper torque control, which was costing them money in rework time and product being damaged by the assembly tools that they were using on the production floor. The heater manufacturer assembles floorboard heaters and in-wall bathroom heaters for residential construction. A deformation with the coated sheet metal used to…
Small torque tools go out of calibration with use. To maintain consistent accuracy, small torque tools must be checked periodically for wear or defective parts. A small power or hand torque tool is a measuring tool that must be properly calibrated and maintained. The easy-to-use EZ-TorQ digital torque tester is ideal for all small hand…
The TorqueLab®, LTT-Series, is a torque tester that offers portability, expandability and documentation control. Meeting the demands to test multiple torque ranges for various torque tools used in production, maintenance and calibration labs, the LTT features the EZ-Plug & Play technology, which is an auto-recognition system for Mountz torque sensors. The torque tester is designed…
Torque measurement is utilized in three areas of assembly. Controlling torque is quintessential for companies to ensure their product’s quality, safety and reliability isn’t compromised. Prior to Assembly Torque testing equipment, like electronic torque tester and torque sensors are used before assembly process for tool setup or conducting tool capability studies. For tool setup, the tool crib…
