Types of Loader Testing

Torque Driver Testing

An accessory torque screwdriver testing kit, 2000-750-02, is

available for use in testing or calibrating most torque

screwdrivers and "T" handled drivers. In addition to providing

perfect driver-transducer alignment, it allows the use of the

2000-600-02 loader crank for precision torque application.

Certain torque screwdrivers, "T" handled drivers, electric or

pneumatic nut runners, and non-impact power tools must be

tested by hand. Double check to be sure that the transducer

you choose is capable of handling the maximum torque that you

will apply. Hold the tool exactly in line with the transducer drive

while testing. Off-axis side loading may compromise the test or

calibration of the tool.

Torque Multiplier Testing

The 2000-600-02 Manual Loader and MULTITEST series

transducers can be configured to test certain torque multipliers.

The MULTITEST Indicator also provides measurement, display,

storage and statistical analysis of multiplier output torque to

2,000 ft lbs.

In practice, the multiplier is attached to the loader using custom

fixturing. The operator provides input torque with an

appropriate wrench, breaker bar or the multiplier’s integral hand

crank.

Various mounting fixtures, adaptors, reaction stops and pins are

available for testing the most common torque multipliers. Ask

your CDI sales representative for design assistance.
