# View On-Demand: How to Identify When a Torque Tool is Drifting Out of Calibration

How do you know when a tool starts to drift out of calibration? It is a nagging quality issue that manufacturing engineers and quality engineers grapple with daily.

Over time and daily usage, a torque tool will eventually deliver more or less torque than intended. Relying only on time-based calibration intervals for torque tools exposes manufacturers to risks. Discovering the device is found out of calibration generates uncertainty. How long has the tool been used to tighten fasteners while out of calibration? 

The best process for engineers to ensure torque tools stay within tolerance is to test and verify the tools regularly. Keeping tools in calibration requires frequent torque verification. It is not because tools frequently go out of calibration. Instead, when tools go out of calibration, it's challenging to identify when it occurred and how long they were in use while "out of calibration."  
   
Our product specialist, David Cash, will teach you to conduct a systematic torque verification process. His tips will help you successfully select the torque measurement equipment to execute this essential quality control process. Please register today to attend our live event and receive our on-demand webinar recording 48 hours after the presentation.

**What You Will Learn:**

- How torque verification improves a quality control process
- Ways to plan & schedule torque verification program
- Tactics for conducting a simple, routine torque verification process
- How to identify when a tool is "out of calibration."
- Best practices for monitoring tool calibration daily or weekly to help reduce product liability
