Fastening regimes with multiple screws are susceptible to fastening failures such as cross-threading, cam-outs, stripped screws, omissions, and unfinished rundowns. A screw counting process is an error-prevention technique that allows an engineer to detect and eliminate costly screw-fastening errors during the assembly process.
Monitoring the fastening process allows production managers to correct fastening errors rather than waiting until the product reaches the quality inspection stage. Discovering a mistake in the later stages of the assembly line, the more it costs in rework time and expenses. This error-prevention solution improves productivity and reduces the scrap rate.
Our product specialist David Cash will demonstrate how to implement a screw counting process that allows you to verify that all fasteners were installed and tightened to the correct torque specification. Please register today to attend our live event and receive our on-demand webinar recording 48 hours after the presentation.
