Intersection
This strategy verifies that the result is the intersection point of two lines, which are drawn from the points where the trace intersects with four user-defined angle thresholds.
Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
Inspection Name | Name of the inspection. |
Torque correction coefficient | When extensions are used, the wrench measurement must be compensated to show a more accurate torque value. To calculate the correction coefficient, please refer toHow to calculate the Torque Correction Coefficient. When extensions are not used, Torque correction coefficient = 1. |
Angle correction coefficient | When extensions cause additional wrench bending, the wrench angle measurement must be compensated to show a more accurate angle value. When extensions are not used, Angle correction coefficient = 0. |
Number of sample | Number of tests to run inside the inspection. |
Cycle start | Torque value from which the test operation starts. |
Minimum torque limit | Minimum torque value that must be reached within the Target angle value in order to get an OK result. |
Maximum torque limit | Upper torque limit value. |
Change screw | If the torque applied reaches this limit, the message Change screw is shown on the wrench display. The Change screw must be equal or higher than the Maximum limit torque. |
Target torque | Torque target value. |
Torque tolerance | Tolerance that defines the maximum torque and the minimum torque according to the Target torque previously specified. Value is expressed in percentage (%). |
Final angle monitoring torque | Torque value from which the angle measurement starts (usually set to 50% of the Target torque). |
Control mode | Method to define the torque limits from the following options:
|
Residual angle threshold 1 | Maximum angle value (measured from the Final angle monitoring torque) for the residual torque when the residual torque is lower than the breakaway point. |
Residual angle threshold 2 | Maximum angle value (measured from the Final angle monitoring torque) for the residual torque when the residual torque is lower than the breakaway point. The Residual angle threshold 2 must be higher than the Residual angle threshold 1 . |
Residual angle threshold 3 | Maximum angle value (measured from the Final angle monitoring torque) for the residual torque when the residual torque is lower than the breakaway point. The Residual angle threshold 3 must be higher than the Residual angle threshold 2. |
Residual angle threshold 4 | Maximum angle value (measured from the Final angle monitoring torque) for the residual torque when the residual torque is lower than the breakaway point. The Residual angle threshold 4 must be higher than the Residual angle threshold 3 . |
Ratchet time | Starts when the torque goes below the Cycle start without reaching the 3rd percentage value. This allows the operator to release the torque for a while and recharge during the tightening operation. |

|
T0 | Final angle monitoring torque | T1 | Minimum torque |
a1 | Residual Angle Threshold 1 | a2 | Residual Angle Threshold 2 |
a3 | Residual Angle Threshold 3 | B | Breakaway |
Results:
If the value is between the user-defined torque range, the result is OK.
If the last angle threshold is not reached, the result is not OK.
