Implementing a solution that prevents over-torque events is critical for engineers to reduce scrap rate costs. Applying the right amount of torque to each fastener maximizes its holding potential. Over-torquing a fastener generates risks of fastening failures and damaged products.
Applying too much force while tightening a fastener can result in over-stretching a bolt, stripping a screw, breaking a screw head, or damaging the threads. The cam-over wrench’s mechanism design limits the torque that an operator can apply. This type of torque-limiting mechanism is what separates different torque wrench technologies. Cam-over wrench technology safeguards against fastening failures and enhances the reliability of the fastening process.
Fastening bolts with a click wrench exposes manufacturers to a quality risk. The tool does not physically prevent an operator from applying additional force and is easily susceptible to over-torque results.
Learn three ways to prevent over-torque failures with cam-over wrench technology that will assist with improving the manufacturing process and productivity by consistently applying the correct torque value to each fastener.
What You Will Learn:
- What type of torque wrenches are susceptible to over-torque events
- How cam-over technology prevents over-torque occurrences
- Discover the productivity benefits of a preset cam-over wrench
- How to implement an error-proofing process
- How to ensure the correct torque is consistently applied.
- Discover the quality differences between a click vs. cam-over wrench.
