When it’s your job to ensure critical fasteners won’t fail, you’re well aware that it takes great care to determine the correct quality controls to put in place including auditing and precision measuring equipment.
Choose wrong, and failed fasteners could result in costly recalls. In addition to causing your company costly recalls, critical fastener failure can harm your reputation and — worse — endanger lives.
As an automotive quality manager, what would it mean to you if you could ensure that torque on all of your fasteners meets your original design standards and all that you’ve set out in your control plans?
