    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proto_(tools)

    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. 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 ...

  5. 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 ...

  6. 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 ...

  7. Dynamometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamometer

    Torque measurement is somewhat complicated since there are two machines in tandem - an inline torque transducer is the preferred method of torque measurement in this case. An eddy-current or waterbrake dynamometer, with electronic control combined with a variable frequency drive and AC induction motor, is a commonly used configuration of this type.

  8. Torque converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque_converter

    At stall, the torque converter can produce maximum torque multiplication if sufficient input power is applied (the resulting multiplication is called the stall ratio). The stall phase actually lasts for a brief period when the load (e.g., vehicle) initially starts to move, as there will be a very large difference between pump and turbine speed.

  9. Deadweight tester - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deadweight_tester

    A dead weight tester (DWT) is a calibration standard method that uses a piston cylinder on which a load is placed to make an equilibrium with an applied pressure underneath the piston. Deadweight testers are secondary standards which means that the pressure measured by a deadweight tester is defined through other quantities: length, mass and time.
