Zusammenfassung:This research explores the torque–angle behavior of M2/M3 screws in automotive applications, focusing on ensuring component reliability and manufacturing precision within the recommended assembly specification limits. M2/M3 screws, often used in tight spaces, are susceptible to issues like stripped threads and inconsistent torque, which can compromise safety and performance. The study’s primary objective is to develop a comprehensive dataset of torque–angle measurements for these screws, facilitating the analysis of key parameters such as torque-to-seat, torque-to-fail, and process windows. By applying Gaussian curve fitting and Gaussian process regression, the research models and simulates torque behavior to understand torque dynamics in small fasteners and remarks on the potential of statistical methods in torque analysis, offering insights for improving manufacturing practices. As a result, it can be concluded that the proposed stochastics methodologies offer the benefit of fail-to-seat ratio improvement, allow inference, reduce the sample size needed in incoming test studies, and minimize the number of destructive test samples needed.
