To avoid these costly errors, post-production quality control is essential. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-460878786623d14c14958cc2c0873b7b\"><strong>2.

In addition, a poor grip on the cap can cause it to ovalise, altering the results. These limitations often lead to poorly reproducible measurements, raising doubts about the reliability of the tests carried out. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.acrn.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/254A5385-hd-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"screwing torque\" class=\"wp-image-14327\" style=\"width:520px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.acrn.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/254A5385-hd-980x653.jpg 980w, https:\/\/www.acrn.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/254A5385-hd-480x320.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-99589382934e93c0abf67ce9387c86c9\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.acrn.fr\/en\/product\/motorized-torque-tester-repeatork\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\">The solution: Repeatork<\/mark><\/a><\/strong> The Repeatork motorized torque tester eliminates these problems thanks to unrivalled precision and perfect repeatability.
