The Mountz Loading Bench is a user-friendly, laboratory-grade instrument that facilitates accurate torque wrench calibration with minimal physical effort. It simulates torque application conditions with ease and enhanced safety, ensuring a more accurate calibration. It enables quick and easy torque wrench calibration and presetting, independent of human influence or transducer side and end load factors. The Mountz Loading Bench is designed to calibrate torque wrenches in accordance with International Standards ISO6789:2017.
The Loading Bench’s drive system is engineered to eliminate potential operator-induced test errors, ensuring precision in every calibration. Built for durable use, it reduces the operator effort required to attain and sustain torque during the calibration process. It features a large handle wheel that operates in clockwise and counterclockwise directions, allowing smooth manual loading.
A torque wrench is not just a tool; it’s a precision instrument that must be properly calibrated and maintained on a preventative maintenance and calibration schedule. The Load Bench’s adjustable design accommodates various-size torque wrenches that can be tested with the unit. The gearbox design of the Loading Bench allows for high torque to be applied with minimum effort from the calibration technician.
Benefits of a Mechanical Torque Wrench Loader
- Quick and easy torque wrench calibration
- Eliminates any operator-induced test error
- The drive system assures proper load
- A large wheel for smooth manual loading
- Both clockwise and counterclockwise operation
When used, torque wrenches become out of calibration over time. Calibrating a torque wrench is a fine-tuning process that brings it back within its tolerance. The international standard for torque wrench calibration (ISO6789) mandates that all conforming wrenches meet or exceed 5,000 cycles before requiring calibration.
For torque wrench calibration, either use a torque tester or torque sensor within the torque wrench’s range. The Mountz Loading Bench is designed to be used in conjunction with a Mountz BMX torque sensor, which connects to a Mountz torque tester like the TorqueLab® LTT-Series or TorqueMate® PTT-Series.
The Loading Bench is designed to be placed on a dedicated work surface or mobile cabinet/cart. Mountz offers three Loading Bench models with a maximum torque range of up to 2,000 foot-pounds.
A torque wrench is a precision tool and should be treated and maintained like a measuring instrument. Many companies use a quality torque wrench calibration system to ensure that proper torque is being applied and maintained for their quality requirements.
