How is torque testing implemented during assembly?

Torque detection is implemented during the Installation of First Generation Wheel Hub Unit Bearings by measuring the torque applied to the bolt or nut.

During the assembly process, operators use a torque wrench or a torque sensor installed on the assembly line to connect it to the bolt or nut that needs to be tightened. Then, when torque is applied, the torque sensor measures the applied force and converts it into a corresponding torque value. These values can be displayed directly on the torque wrench or transmitted to a computer via sensors connected to a monitoring system for recording and analysis.

Another approach is to use an automated torque control system. In this system, a robot or automation device on the assembly line automatically applies a preset torque value and detects the actual applied torque value through a torque sensor installed on the assembly line. Then, the system will compare the actual value with the preset value, and make corresponding adjustments or alarms based on the comparison results.

Torque testing ensures wheel bearing tightening by ensuring that the torque applied by the bolt or nut meets predetermined specification requirements. During the assembly process, wheel hub bearings usually need to be tightened with specific torque values to ensure their safety and stability during use. By implementing torque testing, you can ensure that each bolt or nut is correctly tightened to the required torque value, thereby ensuring that the wheel hub bearing has appropriate tightening force and can withstand various loads and vibrations during vehicle operation, ensuring that the vehicle safety and reliability.
