Prevailing Torque Link (GUI v2.6.0 and later)
Certain specialized applications may require the calculation of prevailing torque, while also having the ability to recall
and compensate for that prevailing torque later in the batch.
Example
:
2 bolts to be secured with prevailing torque compensation to a snug torque of 3 inlb, then each bolt is
re-torqued to 8 inlb with prevailing torque compensation (from the original snug torque operation).
In the Task Setup screen, the number of bolts would be set to 4.
Set up (1) Angle Control parameter suitable to calculate the prevailing torque, and (1) Torque Control parameter for the
snug torque of 3
inlb. Sequence these parameters together for bolts 1 & 2 in the ‘Bolt Sequences’
screen.
