At Arabcal, there is a well-equipped calibration lab with the latest instruments & machinery. We have ISO 17025 accreditation for all torque tools calibration. Our capabilities include torque wrench calibration, torque meters, torque screwdrivers, torque spanners, etc. We perform onsite calibration of Pneumatic/Hydraulic Wrenches & torque testers etc. We also perform lab calibration for all torque tools. Our calibration ensures minimum turnaround, maximum efficiency & safety.
The progress & development of the aviation industry can be credited to the experts of aircraft mechanics, calibration engineers & their keen knowledge in the domain. The aircraft comprises of thousands of big & small units including the tiniest nuts & bolts, fasteners, circuit breakers etc. The fundamental mechanics of aircraft is withstanding at the higher altitudes at varying speed, the temperature every time & hence the importance of properly tightened nuts & bolts becomes critical.
In an aircraft mechanic's inventory, torque wrenches hold an important place. This can be manual or electric torque wrench. Highly precise torque wrenches are widely recommended for presenting the right amount of torque to the fastener. At every operation being performed in the aircraft, the preciseness of torque wrenches is counted; therefore the calibration of torque wrench must be precisely & accurately performed to avoid any discrepancies in the tightening of nuts & bolts in the aircraft units.
Here we are mentioning a few important torque wrenches those are used in aeroplane mechanics.
Dial Indicating Beam Manual Torque Wrench
In dial indicating torque wrench comprises of a beam that acts as the handle that allows torque fastening. On the handle, there is shock gage indicator that shows the amount of torque being exerted on the nuts & bolts. With a clockwise and counterclockwise accuracy with a small tolerance, the dial indicating beam wrenches are well suited for tightening & loosening of the nuts & bolts in the aircraft engines & other units.
However, properly calibrated dial beam indicating torque wrench can be counted more for accuracy, durability & dependability.
Click Type Manual Torque Wrenches
Click Type Manual Torque Wrenches are a modern quality, handheld torque tools with a non-slip gripping & knurled handle. It works on the principle of achieving a preset amount of torque with a calibrated clutch & the unloading of pull-down lock. It consists of spring to prevent the torque wrench from slipping when the set amount of torque is obtained.
When should torque wrench calibration be performed?
For achieving the higher accuracy & precision, the torque wrenches need to be properly calibrated. Periodic calibration of torque wrenches avoids the operator errors & unusual readings during the operation.
As per ISO standards, the torque wrench must be recalibrated after every year or 5000 uses whichever is early. Also, the overloading the wrench must be avoided. For accurate calibration of torque tools, you must select the right calibration partner having domain expertise in calibration jobs.
