More Information
Summary:A power tool includes a housing, a motor positioned within the housing, a controller electrically coupled to the motor, and a transmission coupled to the motor. The transmission includes a ring gear and a torque transducer coupled to the ring gear. The torque transducer is configured to transmit a torque value to the controller. The power tool further including an impulse assembly coupled to the transmission to receive torque therefrom. The controller is configured to receive a target output torque value and to determine an actual output torque based at least in part on the torque value from the torque transducer, and the controller is configured to stop operation of the motor in response to the actual output torque being within a predefined margin of the target output torque value.
