    Proto Tools (formally Stanley Proto) is an American industrial hand tool company. Founded as Plomb , it is presently a division of Stanley Black & Decker . The company is credited with creating the first combination wrench in 1933.

  3. Torque tester - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque_tester

    A key component of modern torque testers is the digital display. A digital display is used to measure the output signal from the transducer and calculates that reading into a torque value that is displayed on screen. In most cases the display and transducer are contained together inside a housing. This is known as a "Desktop Torque Tester".

  4. Cap torque tester - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cap_Torque_Tester

    The cap torque tester is used in the packaging industry to measure the opening or closing torque of the screw cap. Proper torque is required for the cap to perform its functions of maintaining a tight seal. [1] It is a piece of specific quality control equipment that can be placed on the production line or in the laboratory. Several designs ...

  5. Torque wrench - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque_wrench

    A click torque wrench. A torque wrench is a tool used to apply a specific torque to a fastener such as a nut, bolt, or lag screw.It is usually in the form of a socket wrench with an indicating scale, or an internal mechanism which will indicate (as by 'clicking', a specific movement of the tool handle in relation to the tool head) when a specified (adjustable) torque value has been reached ...

    Prony brake dynamometers at a tractor contest in 1910 Schematic of a Prony brake Actual Prony Brake built for testing 5HP Steam Engine. The Prony brake is a simple device invented by Gaspard de Prony in 1821 to measure the torque produced by an engine. The term "brake horsepower" is one measurement of power derived from this method of measuring ...

  7. Hydraulic torque wrench - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_torque_wrench

    A hydraulic torque wrench is significantly quieter, lighter weight and more accurate than pneumatic impact wrenches capable of similar torque output, making it an appealing alternative for many users to the very loud and cumbersome impact wrenches or torque multipliers which were formerly the only viable option for working with very large nuts ...

  8. Torque - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque

    For example, if a person places a force of 10 N at the terminal end of a wrench that is 0.5 m long (or a force of 10 N acting 0.5 m from the twist point of a wrench of any length), the torque will be 5 N⋅m – assuming that the person moves the wrench by applying force in the plane of movement and perpendicular to the wrench.

  9. Direct torque control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_torque_control

    Thus it is not possible to control the motor if the output frequency of the variable frequency drive is zero. However, by careful design of the control system it is possible to have the minimum frequency in the range 0.5 Hz to 1 Hz that is enough to make possible to start an induction motor with full torque from a standstill situation. A ...
