robots and smaller machines can take over precision assembly tasks such  driving screws. Pneumatic screwdrivers are widely used in assembly areas, to help operators work quickly and ensure the correct torque is applied.


However, errors can occur. One example is where screws are required to be inserted in deep holes. Some can be missed as operators cannot see whether a screw has been inserted. Automating the screwdriving processes provides certainty that every item is inserted and tightened satisfactorily.
