Smart tools were used to integrate assembly systems with a visual production assembly software to reduce the number of pneumatic tools needed to complete each specific process and record every safety critical tightening from start to finish against VIN ID. A combination of cable tools, cordless tools & digital torque wrenches were implemented on an entire assembly line which wirelessly communicate all assembly data of every model / VIN to a central database. The above assembly equipment is manipulated by the software to perform various assembly processes including multiple torque & angle strategies, using a single assembly tool. Clients currently using this equipment include: MAN Truck & Bus, Hino Truck
