A screwdriver is a tool used to tighten screws to force them into place. It typically has a thin, wedge-shaped head that inserts into the slot or notch of the screw head. In the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, Shandong, Shanxi, Henan, and Shaanxi dialects, it's called "gaizhui"; in Jiangxi, Anhui, and Hubei, it's called "qizi"; in the central and western regions, it's called "gaidao"; and in the Yangtze River Delta region, it's called "xuanzao". There are mainly two types: flathead (minus sign) and Phillips head (positive sign). Hex screwdrivers are also common, including both internal and external hex types.
Following the rapid development of the electrical and industrial ages, manual tools gradually faded from view, and the rise of electric servo screwdrivers paved the way for the industrialization and efficiency transformation of repetitive tasks. However, as the safety of emerging industries gains increasing attention, Aierte's independently developed ACT-4000 servo tightening system has stepped into the forefront of history.
Advantages and disadvantages of using a regular screwdriver versus a servo tightening system
1. Ordinary screwdriver
It's a screwdriver with the head and shank combined, which is easy to prepare and can be used as soon as you take it out. However, since screws come in many different lengths and thicknesses, sometimes you need to prepare many different screwdrivers.
advantage:
1) Easy to use and quick to learn
2) Low price, suitable for family use
shortcoming:
1) The tightening force depends entirely on human feeling.
2) Slow speed
3) Screws are easily damaged.
2. Pneumatic screwdriver
Pneumatic screwdrivers, also known as pneumatic screwdrivers, air screwdrivers, pneumatic screwdrivers, etc., are pneumatic tools used to tighten and loosen screws and nuts.
advantage:
1) High speed, reaching 2800 RPM.
2) High torque, suitable for 10 N·m and above.
shortcoming:
1) High noise level
2) Torque accuracy is affected by the air source.
3) High maintenance costs
3. Ordinary electric screwdriver
An electric screwdriver, also known as an electric screwdriver or electric screwdriver, is an electric tool equipped with a mechanism for adjusting and limiting torque, used for tightening and loosening screws.
This power tool is mainly used on assembly lines and is an essential tool for most manufacturing companies. It can be divided into three categories: straight-handle, handheld, and mounted.
advantage:
1) The torque is relatively stable.
2) Low noise
3) Comprehensive series, suitable for all kinds of small screws
shortcoming:
1) Torque and speed cannot be changed during operation.
2) It is easy to mis-tighten or miss tightening.
3) It produces dust pollution and is not suitable for a clean environment.
4. Airt servo tightening system (ACT-4000)
