Easier process control and compliance The torque control system expedites all aspects of the automation process, from installing error-proofing disciplines to adaptive fastening strategies. A single Mountz DC control auto- mation system replaces up to 15 power tools. The assembly tool reduces tooling costs and improves operations by optimizing a compa- ny’s manufacturing footprint. Achieve multiple fastening tasks with one tooling system. The assembly tool gives you the flexibility you need to carry out varied and complicated manufac- turing plans. The ECT-Series is a transducerized tool that features a built-in sensor that contin- ually measures torque in real-time and feeds data back into the system. Mountz intelligent screwdriver system offers maximum production results and product oversight with a built-in screw counter and error-proofing software. And by providing documented fastening results, Mountz DC control tools also make regulatory compliance effortless.
Fastening automation workflows When there is a repetitive series of tightening tasks, manufacturers should implement a fastening automation workflow process. Often these repetitive tasks are managed across multiple workstations, tools, and assembly operators. By creating a fastening automation workflow, the manufacturing process becomes streamlined and reduces human error risk. Group similar processes and assign a set of standardized tasks: program fastening sequences and torque tolerances for each fastener in a sequence for sensitive and complex assembly joints. Workflow automation is the best method to achieve tightening tasks efficiently. It produces reliable and accurate torque control results every time. Workflow automation provides visibility of the various fastening tasks and improves production efficiency, consistency, and quality. The smart screwdriver system offers benefits for improving consistency and quality.
Sequence control Mountz DC control tools are easy to program and can remember up to 30 process sequences with 20 program steps. The tool gives you the flexibility you need to carry out varied and complicated manufacturing plans.
