The force gauge Centor Touch has 3 inputs and 6 outputs trigger channels for a direct connection to a logic controller, or production machine. The trigger channels allow synchronization of Centor touch gauge with external events (External events such as brake pedal depression or passing a marker point).

In the design and manufacturing industries, torque measurement is a big challenge and becomes a relevant measurement in order to define / validate:

 

• mounting specifications / clamping
• product characteristics such as motors, generators, wind turbines ...
• the accuracy of tools such as wrenches or screwdrivers

In the world of manufacturing and assembly, measurement of torque tightening of fasteners is imperative for the effectiveness of production and product quality. On one hand, loose attachment may vibrate or loosen, on the other hand if the torque is too high a bold can break. Faced with these problems, manufacturers are realizing that a well-managed torque system can make the difference between a safe, reliable, economic product and a complete disaster.  read more...

A Force Gauge is measuring instrument used across all industries to measure the force during a push or pull test. Applications exist in research and development, laboratory, quality, production and field environment. There are two kind of force gauges today: mechanical and digital force gauges.

It is sometimes really hard to measure the torque on caps. The quality of the measure depends on different parameters: material, operator, torque tester. So you can have important differences between results and it is impossible to have a good repeatability. Andilog Technologies gives you advises to improve you measurements.

At some point, manufacturers will find themselves in this situation: they have to test their new product in manufacturing - the question is how to do it. What equipment should they choose? What is the best device to use to ensure good results? How can production be validated without getting the boss upset about the budget?  read more...
