SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CALIBRATING A TOOL

A method (300) for measuring prevailing torque in a tool (118), comprising applying torque (302) using a tool until a trigger torque threshold value is met in a torque transducer; measuring torque data (304) recorded by the torque transducer until the trigger torque threshold value is met; evaluatin...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A method (300) for measuring prevailing torque in a tool (118), comprising applying torque (302) using a tool until a trigger torque threshold value is met in a torque transducer; measuring torque data (304) recorded by the torque transducer until the trigger torque threshold value is met; evaluating torque data (306) recorded by the torque transducer during applying the torque prior to the trigger torque threshold value to determine a prevailing torque value; determining (308) whether the prevailing torque value is within a predetermined prevailing torque range; signaling (310) at least one of pass or fail depending on whether the prevailing torque is within the prevailing torque range; and adjusting a shutoff threshold torque (316) based on the prevailing torque.
