From Tight to Just Right – Master the Twist with Presto’s Torque Tester

Torque testing is highly critical in industries like packaging, automotive, and electronics. The functionality and safety of components, including bottle caps, fasteners, or electronic connectors, depend on their material quality. For these industries, it is important to determine the torque needed to open, close, or fasten an object to ensure proper quality control and avoid failure in the product.

This blog will explore insights into how it works and the formula for the calculation of torque.

What is a Torque Tester HMI Model?

Torque testers are machines used for detecting the rotational force, often called torque, applied against the object. Some of its common applications include tightening the corks on bottles, verifying the torque in fastening materials in automotive parts, as well as testing the torsion in electronic components in general.

The Torque Tester HMI Model has an easy-to-use Human-Machine Interface that helps in the easy setting of parameters, monitoring the test in real-time, and the retrieval of details. This enhances user interaction as well as clear insight into more control of the testing process.

Why Presto?

Presto’s Torque Tester HMI Model is highly accurate, precise, and user-friendly. It is the ideal option for companies whose requirements are based on torque testing capabilities. Presto is unique in the market because it gives room for innovation along with high-quality equipment that ensures a high level of precision in torque measurement.

How to Use a Torque Tester HMI Model?

Torque Tester HMI Model operation is quite simple and convenient. The most important steps used to work with this equipment are:

• Sample Placement: Place the sample object (for example, bottle cap or fastener) firmly on the tester. The HMI screen will guide the placement of the object to get an accurate reading.
• Secure the Sample: Place the sample object (such as a bottle cap or fastener) securely on the tester. The HMI screen will provide guidance for proper placement to ensure accurate readings.
• Set Desired Parameters Using the HMI: The touchscreen interface is used to set desired parameters, including torque range, target value, and specific conditions, if any. These are shown in real time by the HMI, and easy adjustments can be made.
• Start the Test: Start the test by activating the start button on the graphical user interface. The HMI screen will display real-time outputs during this test, including torque measurement in real-time.
• Data Recording: After the test, the data could be saved, exported, or printed directly from the HMI for further analysis or record-keeping. Data can also be stored within the system; it would then be easy to look over results over time or share with team members.

Metrics and Formula Used in Torque Testing

Units used to express torque are Nm or lb-ft. One calculates the force applied at its peak using the following relation when the test is conducted:

Torque (T) = Force (F) X Distance (r) from the center of rotation.

T= F* r

where:

T = Torque measured in units of Nm or lb-ft.

F = Force in Newton or pounds

r = Distance from the axis of rotation (lever arm) in meters or feet

FAQs

1. What is the maximum torque range of the Presto’s Torque Tester HMI Model?

Maximum torque range depends upon model and configuration. Yet, the Torque Tester HMI Model of Presto can withstand a great variety of torque values.
