Enhance joint quality with force and torque monitoring

Data from the load and torque sensors can be processed locally using the Kistler CoMo Net or CoMo View process monitoring systems. In addition, the data can be transmitted to a centralised production monitoring and control system. Both of the systems can output a signal that can be used to activate a 'reject' mechanism in the event of an operation being outside the acceptable tolerance bands.

Unlike periodic testing of fastener systems, continuous monitoring can prevent faulty assemblies from being passed to the next stage in production or to the end customer. This helps to minimise the need for manual QA inspections, enhances overall productivity and minimises production costs.
