Bossard Launches Three Calculator Apps

Bossard launched three calculators for dealing with c-Parts. The applications can be used online through the company’s website or downloaded from the AppStore.

 

Cost Savings Calculator: The cost of fasteners makes up only around 15 % of total costs. 85 % occur from procurement activities, internal logistic, assembly preparation and many other activities. This fact makes rationalization of fasteners very interesting as the cost savings potential is high.

 

Torque and Preload Calculator: Calculate the tightening torque and resulting preload for sizes M1 to M68 for various combinations of friction coefficients and property classes. The calculations are based on VDI 2230*, version 2003.

 

Thread engagement length: Determine the correct thread engagement length for through hole and blind hole in fasteners application, sizes M1 to M68. The calculations are based on VD 2230*, 2003. Web: bossard.com  ©2010 GlobalFastenerNews.com
