[Revised Edition・Free Distribution] The Torque Handbook vol.10 has been published.

[Revised edition after 5 years] Published technical and product information, as well as case studies on torque management, torque equipment selection, operation, and calibration methods in the "Manufacturing Site Problem Solving GUIDE."

【Revised after 5 years! Free Distribution】 The Torque Handbook is a unique booklet that provides practical technical materials useful for the operation and management of torque equipment, aimed at those engaged in research and development, design, production technology, quality control (assurance), and after-sales service in the manufacturing industry, particularly related to "torque management" and "screw fastening." 【Highlights/Reading Points】 - At the beginning, in addition to our company history, we include "The Evolution of Poka-Yoke Related Products," "The Development of Small Torque Wrenches," and "Newly Developed Small Torque Wrenches." - In the technical materials, we have reviewed the details and updated them with the latest information. Chapter 4 includes a new section on "Data Communication Methods Used in TOHNICHI Products," explaining both wired and wireless data communication methods. Chapter 6 discusses the comparison between the international standard ISO6789-2017 for manual torque tools and JIS and TOHNICHI standards. - Just before the product pages (P160-163), we have newly included a "Manufacturing Site Problem-Solving GUIDE." This section explains issues (challenges) and solutions over four pages, from Case 1 to Case 6, using abundant illustrations and product images for easy understanding. This content is not only for those in manufacturing but also for sales personnel in trading companies.

Easy integration with Excel and familiar electronic form systems! Wireless data transmission digital torque wrench with angle measurement function "CEM3-BTLA".

**Features** - Equipped with HOGP profile (keyboard interface). - Capable of wireless communication with Windows and iOS devices. - Easy integration with data entry into Excel and familiar electronic forms systems. - As of May 2022, confirmed systems for integration include i-Reporter (Simtops Co., Ltd.) and XC-Gate (Techno Tree Co., Ltd.) (in no particular order). - The CEM3-BTLA is a special specification product of the CEM3-BTA, allowing for torque and angle measurement similar to the -BTA, enabling detection of various tightening anomalies such as double tightening and "spring washer assembly omission," which facilitates advanced pass/fail judgment and is expected to improve the reliability of tightening fundamentally. - For CEM3-BTLA with firmware version Ver2.1 or later, the end code of the transmitted data can now select "TAB key." This allows for automatic input after data entry into XC-Gate without the operator needing to tap the screen each time, enhancing the usability of XC-Gate. ■ The CEM3-BTLA is a special specification product of the CEM3-BTA. (Please refer to the CEM3-BTA series for detailed specifications.)

Automatically wirelessly transmits torque and angle to Windows and iOS devices with a "Kachin!" sound. Click-type wireless data transmission torque wrench CSPBTLD.

【Features】 - HOGP type. - Automatically transmits torque and angle data wirelessly with a "click!" when the set torque is reached. Data acquisition can be performed effortlessly with a similar working sensation as a conventional click-type torque wrench. - Pass/fail judgment based on pre-set tightening torque and angle. The LED display on the CSPBTLD body shows blue (pass) / red (fail), making it easy for the operator to understand the result at a glance. - Equipped with HOGP profile (keyboard interface). - Capable of wireless communication with Windows and iOS devices. - Easy integration with data input to Excel and familiar electronic form systems. - As of July 2022, confirmed systems for integration include i-Reporter (Simtops Co., Ltd.) and XC-Gate (Techno Tree Co., Ltd.). (In no particular order) - CSPBTLD is a special specification product of FDD. It enhances FDD's angle measurement function, allowing for advanced pass/fail judgments such as measuring tightening torque and angle, detecting double tightening or "galling," and detecting "forgetting to install spring washers," thereby improving the reliability of tightening fundamentally.

A practical Japanese-English torque training seminar that will be immediately useful for business starting tomorrow. The number of participating companies has exceeded 3,058 with 7,896 people! From the basics of torque management to repair and calibration.

■Catalog updated! The schedule has been updated until the end of May 2024. ■We have decided to regularly hold a repair and calibration course for the compact preset torque wrench "QL5 series," which has a small body and a large torque scale, as it was highly requested. ◆The "Tohnichi Torque Seminar," which is immediately useful for business, has seen participation from over 3,300 companies and more than 8,300 individuals (cumulative from November 1999 to March 2023). ◆In the T course, you can learn the basics of torque management and torque equipment. It is suitable for those who are about to implement torque management or for training workers/new employees. Particularly in practical sessions, we have devised ways to deepen understanding of torque management through hands-on experience. ◆In the R1-1/R1-2 (Calibration/Repair) course, you can learn the methods for repairing and calibrating torque wrenches/torque drivers. This course is suitable for companies that own testers or are planning to implement "in-house calibration and repair." ◆The R1-3 course teaches the repair and calibration methods for the preset torque wrench 'QL5/CL5 series,' which allows for easy and reliable torque settings with a large torque scale. ◆The R3 course is designed to enable in-house calibration and simple adjustments of torque wrench testers/torque driver testers.
