Security<br />

Where every<br />

fastener counts…<br />

Controlled tightening cuts assembly costs by detecting errors. <strong>Tensor</strong> <strong>DL</strong><br />

will bring you closer to zero fault production than ever before. By alerting<br />

the operator to the most common errors before they continue down<br />

the line, the system ensures high quality end-products, and saves you a<br />

fortune in reworking costs. Most important of all, controlled tightening<br />

helps avoid warranty claims and badwill that could jeopardise future sales.<br />

No more missed screws<br />

A missing screw can effectively<br />

sabotage product quality.<br />

While a conventional tool gives<br />

no indication that a screw is<br />

missing, <strong>Tensor</strong> <strong>DL</strong> counts the<br />

screws and signals Batch OK.<br />

Correct torque every time<br />

with fewer tools<br />

<strong>Tensor</strong> <strong>DL</strong> always applies the<br />

correct torque, thus avoiding<br />

loose screws or broken parts.<br />

Up to 10 parameter sets can<br />

be programmed to handle<br />

different torques and types of<br />

joint. A bit selector can be<br />

used to select the correct<br />

torque setting automatically<br />

when the operator picks a<br />

screw bit.<br />

Premature shut-off,<br />

a thing of the past<br />

Every assembly process involves<br />

the risk of human error.<br />

Shutting off the tool before<br />

reaching the correct torque<br />

is a typical example. Unlike<br />

conventional tools, <strong>Tensor</strong> <strong>DL</strong><br />

helps the operator detect early<br />

shut-off by means of lamps on<br />

the tool and on the <strong>DL</strong> Drive.<br />

Tightening is correct only when<br />

the green signal lamp lights.<br />

The right screws and<br />

washers every time<br />

An assembly station usually<br />

has a variety of different<br />

screws and washers. If they<br />

are mixed up or a washer goes<br />

missing, <strong>Tensor</strong> <strong>DL</strong> identifies<br />

Are electric tools worth the investment?<br />

Absolutely, and we can prove it! During their long<br />

working lives, <strong>Tensor</strong> <strong>DL</strong> <strong>screwdrivers</strong> will pay for<br />

themselves many times over and raise the profitability<br />

of your operation. You can also replace as many as<br />

10 conventional tools with one <strong>Tensor</strong> <strong>DL</strong>.<br />

the error by detecting variations<br />

in the tightening angle.<br />

The tool then signals a NOK<br />

tightening, preventing a defective<br />

product from leaving<br />

the factory and reaching the<br />

end-customer.<br />

Forget stripped screws<br />

When working with sheet<br />

metal screws, if a self-tapping<br />

screw enters the hole at the<br />

wrong angle, or the thread<br />

gets stripped, <strong>Tensor</strong> <strong>DL</strong><br />

signals that the screw has not<br />

been correctly tightened.<br />

Good repeatability<br />

For consistent tightening<br />

results on both hard and soft<br />

joints day after day, it is often<br />

necessary to use two conventional<br />

tools, one for each type<br />

of joint. <strong>Tensor</strong> <strong>DL</strong> gives<br />

good repeatability by using a<br />

different parameter set for<br />

each type of joint. Since torque<br />

is determined electronically,<br />

there is no extra wear on<br />

mechanical components even<br />

after years of service.
