High Performance Electric Screwdriver with Precision Torque Control – Blog | Mountz Torque Tips & Solutions

Fasteners that are tightened down time after time, a power tool is often the tool of choice. Mountz electric torque screwdrivers are designed for precision torque control and ensure product quality, cost savings and a reduction in overall assembly failures.

The NF-Series power tools are the best-in-class and represents a major advance in design and engineering. The electric driver delivers accuracy, sound ergonomics, durability and versatility for most industrial assembly applications. Built for high production environments, the NF-Series tools feature a high performance Swiss Maxon brushless motor design, which reduces the standard maintenance costs associated with most electric screwdrivers.

Key Benefits of Operating NF-Series Electric Torque Screwdriver:

  • The tool automatically shuts-off once the preset torque is reached
  • Provides accurate repeatability
  • Protects the product from static shocks due to its ESD compliance
  • RoHS-compliant, CE approved and NRTL certified
  • Available in “Push-to-Start” or “Lever-Start” configuration
  • Can be connected with the Scout screw counter

Brushless Electric Torque Screwdrivers
Screwdrivers with brushless motors have an extremely long operating life with no need for regular maintenance or replacement of expendable parts (carbon brushes, rotor, switches and other contact points). Heat generated by the motor is reduced and screwdriver performance is always at the maximum level resulting in reliable product quality.

With almost no expendable parts and simple design, the brushless screwdriver life cycle is extended and will maintain a clean working environment. The screwdriver requires less maintenance and part replacement while delivering consistent reliable performance.

ESD Electric Torque Screwdrivers
The NF screwdriver is ESD certified, ensuring less than 1 Ohm at the bit tip. ESD management in power tools will ensure product quality, cost savings and a reduction in overall ESD failures. Manufacturing engineers involved with microelectronic products are aware of the importance of controlling electrostatic discharge (ESD) failures. Lapses in preventing the occurrence of electrostatic discharge can affect production yields, manufacturing costs, product quality, product reliability, reputation and profitability.

Static damage to electronic components can be realized as catastrophic or latent failures. Catastrophic failures are easier to detect and resolve. With this type of failure the part is “dead” and will not function. It may be costly to repair, but is easy to manage. With latent failures the problem is much worse as the failure may not be detected in testing, but is a “time bomb” waiting to happen. Since this product will get into the field and cause intermittent problems or failure in the field, it can be a much more costly problem.

Mountz offers various NF-Series models that range from 2.6 – 39 lbf.in, along with these selectable options for different fastening application requirements:

  • Adjustable RPM setting on the tool
  • Selectable soft start timing
  • Selectable double hit mode for soft joint applications
  • A soft-stop clutch design that prevents shock to sensitive assemblies like disk drives, plastics, electronics
  • The installation of heli-coil screw thread inserts, as well as light tapping and gauging application

The NF-Series features an Over Heat Protection (OHP) and Over Current Protection (OCP) that protects the electric screwdriver from damage or malfunction. The temperature detection powers down the unit and resets automatically when unit restores to acceptable levels. The NF driver is designed with a LED display that signals the tool’s status for the operator to clearly view.

Using a quality brushless electric screwdriver makes a safer world through accuracy and precision. Controlling torque is essential for companies to ensure their product’s quality, safety and reliability isn’t compromised. The failure of a three-cent fastener that isn’t properly tightened can lead to catastrophic or latent failures. Fasteners that are insufficiently fastened can vibrate loose and excessive torque can strip threaded fasteners.
