147 depths in case of clamping parts having dif- ferent thicknesses, different screw lengths were necessary. Otherwise, it was not pos- sible to use an identical tightening torque for each joint. The special design of the thread forming zone of the EVO PT ® allows to obtain an almost constant installation torque which is independent from the installation depth. Therefore, identical screw dimensions may be used even in cross-part applications. This reduces the assembly component diversity and contributes to an economical and process reliable manufacturing. EVO CALC TM – the smart calculation service In case of different screw diameters, the EVO CALC TM prognosis program can calculate, if a standardization is possible with screws al- ready in use or if an oversizing or an under- sizing exists. This saves valuable development time. Of course, torque values and clamp loads are predicted as well. As special benefit for en- gineers and developers EVO CALC TM also al- lows to calculate the relaxation behavior of the joint even under the influence of temperature. Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) for complete assemblies EJOT offers efficient CAE services to examine and analyze multi-screw joints of complete assemblies. This allows customers to check if the joints will permanently resist the defined loads. A premature detection of potential overloads in the part helps to avoid construc- tion defects in an early stage of development. Therefore, enormous savings of time and costs are possible in case of an early reaction and de- sign change. Using FE analysis, the position of highest stress in the joint can be determined. These results are used for further develop- ment of the assembly component. EVO PT ® combines the exceptional joining properties of an excellent screw with novel prognosis tools. These programs allow a pre- cise preview of the design, the assembly pro- cess and the behavior of a screw joint. EJOT wants to support not only the demands of en- gineers, but of all parties which are involved in the complete production chain such as pur- chasing, production and quality management. This is of importance as each single process influences the overall success of a company.
