Manufacturers should implement a fastening automation workflow process when there is a repetitive series of tightening tasks. 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. Workflow automation provides visibility of the various fastening tasks and improves production efficiency, consistency, and quality. 

A smart torque control system expedites all aspects of the assembly automation process, from installing error-proofing disciplines to adaptive fastening strategies. A single intelligent electric screwdriver system replaces up to 15 power tools as engineers can achieve multiple fastening tasks by establishing automated fastening workflows.

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 difficult assembly joints. Workflow automation is the best method to achieve tightening tasks efficiently. It produces consistent and accurate torque control results every time.
