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 […]
While investing in DC torque tools can save time while ensuring better accuracy, keeping them well-maintained is the secret to reducing critical assembly errors. If a tool isn’t calibrated correctly, it can cause torque misreadings. And applying too much or little torque increases the risks of end-user injury and product damage. As a plant supervisor, […]
