Kilews KTM-150 Torque Meter is a specialized electronic device from the Kilews brand (Taiwan), designed to measure and check the torque values of screwdriving tools such as electric screwdrivers, pneumatic screwdrivers, or manual screwdrivers. The KTM-150 model typically indicates a maximum measuring limit, capacity up to 150 kgf.cm. The torque meter helps ensure screwdriving tools operate at preset torque values, playing an important role in quality control during assembly.
Key Highlights of Kilews KTM-150:
- High Accuracy: Provides reliable torque measurement results with low error (typically around ±0.5% Full Scale), meeting industrial testing requirements.
- LCD Digital Display: Clearly displays measured values, measuring units, and operating modes for easy reading.
- Multi-Unit Measurement: Allows users to select and switch between common torque units such as kgf.cm, N.m, and lbf.in.
- Flexible Measuring Modes: Features primary measuring modes:
- Peak: Records and displays the maximum torque value reached during measurement (useful when checking tightening force).
- Track: Displays real-time instantaneous torque values.
- Simple Operation: User-friendly interface with clear function buttons for easy operation and setup.
- Compact & Durable Design: Suitable for use at QC stations or tool setup areas. Can operate on a rechargeable battery or AC adapter.
- Good Compatibility: Can be used to test various electric and pneumatic screwdrivers (requires appropriate connectors or fixtures).
Main Applications:
- Quality Control (QC): Periodically or randomly check the tightening force of screwdrivers on assembly lines to ensure products are assembled to technical standards.
- Tool Calibration & Setup: Used to preset desired torque values for electric/pneumatic screwdrivers and check/recalibrate them after a period of use.
- Tool Maintenance: Check screwdriver performance to decide on maintenance or repair.
- Research & Development: Measure and analyze tightening force during new product development or material testing.
Usage Notes:
- Do Not Overload: Absolutely do not measure torque exceeding the maximum limit of the device (e.g., 150 kgf.cm for model KTM-150). Overloading can permanently damage the load cell.
- Periodic Calibration: To ensure accuracy, the meter must be calibrated periodically according to the manufacturer's recommendations or company quality standards.
- Use Proper Fixtures: Use the correct joint simulator or adapter suitable for the screw head type and joint characteristics (hard or soft) for the most accurate measurement results.
- Handle with Care: Place the screwdriver into the fixture carefully, avoiding strong impacts on the sensor.
- Working Environment: Store and use the machine in a dry, clean place, avoiding strong vibrations and electromagnetic interference.
- Battery/Power Check: Ensure the machine has adequate power (fully charged battery or connected adapter) for stable operation.
Kilews KTM-150 Torque Meter is not just a measuring device – it is reliable for every screw you tighten. With precise torque measurement, clear display, and flexible operation, the KTM-150 delivers the control and peace of mind you need to ensure every joint achieves perfection.
