Calibration can change gradually over an extended period. It can also jump suddenly, often as a result of the tool being dropped. This change is called “calibration drift,” and it can quickly become a very serious problem. Calibration prevents both overtightening, which could lead to deformation and fastener failure, and under-tightening, which might cause an […]
