Checking the torque on a cordless screwdriver

Checking the torque on a cordless screwdriver

If a force acts on the center of gravity of a freely moving rigid body, the body accelerates. If the body is held in place at one point, translation is no longer possible, and the body's movement is reduced to rotational movements (turns) around that point. The quantity that influences this rotational movement is called torque. This torque can be checked, for example, on impact wrenches or cordless screwdrivers, tools that are particularly used in assembly areas where the correct tightening torque of a connection determines the service life and quality of the end product. A torque measuring device is used for this purpose, which performs this test quickly and efficiently. An important check for quality control.

The torque of tools (impact wrenches, cordless screwdrivers, etc.), where the correct tightening torque of a connection determines the quality of the final product, can be checked. A torque measuring device performs this test quickly and efficiently. This is an important quality control check.
