Abstract:The calibrated wrench method is often used for tightening. When tightening bolted joints, it is important to apply high axial tension. However, since the axial tension is indirectly applied in this method, it varies and has a distribution in the case of tightening carried out in the production line of a factory, for example. However, the calibrated wrench method is still widely used because of the simple tool and easy standardization. In our previous papers, we analyzed and discussed the main points of this re… Show more
