Solution

Air or electric driven power tools need to be tested to prove capability performances. Best way to do this is to test on real joints on products. But this can interrupt production and decreases the speed of the line. JRS is a joint Simulator and it is specialy designed to simulate real joint conditions on a trolley. Trolley is moved near to the tool to be tested, operator performs number of rundowns needed on the trolley within some seconds.

Conclusion

In this way, quality people can tests the tools on simulated joints without disturbing production. All the results can be stored, analyzed and reported.
