Torque Arms Improve Production During Assembly The new EZ-Slider torque arms from Mountz are designed to improve production and quality control during the assembly process. The ergonomic design of the torque arm is intended to reduce repetitive motion injury and carpal tunnel syndrome. The handling of the torque arm provides comfortable tool operation and increased production. The Mountz torque arm eliminates the torque reaction of power and pneumatic tools. Crafted with a lightweight durable carbon fibre, the EZ-Slider torque arm slides up and down and provides X- and Y-axis mobility. A gliding rail system from Mountz gives the EZ-Slider torque arm the freedom to travel horizontally (side to side) on a production floor. Combining these two items give manufactures the ability to set up a slide-and-glide movement with the EZ-Slider. The torque arm is suitable for multi-tool applications such as a moving production and assembly line where balancers are fixed to a trolley system. Th...

HBM Torque Flange Has Measuring Range From 200Nm HBM has improved the performance of its T40 multi-purpose torque flange with a new rated measuring range from 200Nm. The T40 is now available with rated torques of 200nm, 500nm, 1kNm, 2 kNm, 3 kNm, 5 kNm and 10kNm. Intended to provide accurate torque measurements, even under difficult ambient conditions, the T40 features identical electrical configuration throughout the series. This allows the torque transducer to be used for a range of applications - from friction performance measurements, applications for engine or gear test benches to chassis test benches - without modifications. The T40 series' compact design means that the torque flange can be easily integrated into a test bench and is insensitive to parasitic loads. Direct mounting of machine elements - without additional joint shafts or couplings - is possible. The T40 does not use slip rings or bearings and is therefore totally maintenance and wear free. The reliability...
