The Importance of Torque Calibration
Regular torque tool calibration and re-calibration guarantees the operator repeatable accuracy and adherence to international standards. Calibration also ensures torque equipment is operating to peak performance and can highlight potential tooling problems before they arise perhaps due to tool wear or broken components.
Torque calibration equipment can be found in many industry sectors such as:
Research & Development
As technology moves ever forward, with the implementation of new materials, processes and assembly techniques there is a demand for accurate torque application. The accurate calibration of torque tools is a vital part of this process.
Inspection & Quality Control
The accurate and repeatable application of torque is fundamental in any quality control process in order to save time and money. Torque equipment calibrated regularly and accurately can and will allow you to reach these goals:
Production
Torque tools calibrated correctly can provide repeatable accuracy saving time, money, materials and labor. Regularly calibrated and certified torque tools, reduce the risk of products failing in service, saving money from warranty and re-work costs.
Servicing
Engineers involved in servicing may have to apply various and accurate torque settings to a range of components. Accurate calibration of these tools is vital in achieving accurate torque applications.
