View On-Demand: How to Test a Power Tool Calibration & Reliability
How often do you verify the calibration of a power tool and ensure repeatable performance? Over time or with usage, these tools drift out of tolerance, and the risk of reliability increases. Maintaining accuracy, repeatability, and safety quality standards is a significant benefit for validating the power tool's status.
Measuring dynamic torque is a troubleshooting solution for evaluating the fastening joint application and the performance of the power tool. Uncovering inaccuracies with an assembly process allows them to be quickly corrected.
A power tool's torque is dynamic; various factors, like a soft rubber gasket, washers, lubricant, or a plastic component, impact the fastening process. Failing to account for actual joint conditions can create a significant difference between expected and actual torque delivery, which affects your rate of lost product.
Our product specialist, David Cash, will demonstrate how to measure dynamic torque and validate the calibration and repeatability of a power tool. Please register today to attend our live event and receive our on-demand webinar recording 48 hours after the presentation.
