Torque Control

Torque 101: A Guide to the Fundamentals of Torque Control

Lack of torque control has caused wheel detachment on vehicles, failures with life-saving medical instruments, and prevented electronic devices from functioning. Engineers risk product failures and escalating scrap rate costs with their manufacturing process without torque control. To many manufacturers, understanding the various elements of torque control is often overlooked or misunderstood. Manufacturers must-have resources…

Error-Proofing the Complete Tightening Process Control

Error-Proofing the Complete Tightening Process Control

Error-proofing the complete tightening 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…

Torque tools are needed for effective overhead crane repair.

Overhead Crane Repair Services Rely on Pro Torque Tools

Overhead cranes are critical infrastructure for the industries which use them, including shipping, rail, freight, warehousing, metallurgy, paper production, heavy manufacturing, and any industry where heavy weights must be continually lifted in the same area. When an overhead crane goes out of service, it can bottleneck significant portions, or the entirety, of a company’s daily…

Maintaining boring machine parts requires proper torque control.

How to Extend Boring Machine Parts Lifespan to Keep Maintenance Projects on Track

As tunnel workers know, boring machines are anything but. Ranging from merely large to staggeringly huge, these complicated devices chew through loam, clay, and solid rock to excavate large and small tunnels across the world. What’s also enormous is the degree to which the success of a tunneling project rests on the proper maintenance of…

Effective Maintenance of Farm Tools and Equipment With Modern Torque Control

Modern farming is a capital-intensive industry. The large machines that family farms and corporate farming operations employ to seed, weed, tend, and harvest can represent sizeable portions of multiple years worth of revenue. In order for the farm to succeed, these tractors, combines, harvesters, and other large pieces of equipment must do enough work to…
