Fastening Torque Control Mechanism for Automatic Screw Driver

A screw driver is essentially used in assembling machine parts and electronic products such as the printed circuit board with a housing. As the parts to be assembled becomes small and precise, the higher precision of the controling screw driver torque is required. However, because the operator controls the fastening torque by his experience, it must be inexact. Thus the screw driver which can exactly control the fastening torque by a bellows is designed and developed in the study. The bellows is expanded by the inner air pressure and contracted and by the spring operation. The bellows driver is composed of the entrance solenoid valve, the exit solenoid valve and the pressure sensor. The pressure sensor senses the bellows pressure. When the pressure sensor output reaches the setting value, it operates the exit solenoid valve not to deliver further torque by letting the air of the bellows out. Through a series of experiments, the performance is studied and verified.
