Abutments were retained with gold Unigrip abutment screws tightened to 32 N/cm with an electronic torque controller.
Insertion torques were recorded with an electronic torque screw driver (Totti, DTDK-N50 E, Wuppertal, Germany).
Maximum breaking torques in polymethyl methacrylate resin were recorded by means of an electronic torque screw driver.
For each type of screw, a custom-made adapter (Fig. 3) was used, which was mounted onto the electronic torque screw driver (Totti, DTDK-N50 E, Wuppertal, Germany).
At the Frankfurt Motor Show in September, GKN unveiled its new electronic torque-management system think of it as artificial intelligence for the driveline.
At present, multiple implant stability assessment methodologies are used, both of invasive and non-invasive nature, including percussion test [1], X-ray evaluation [2], cutting resistance during implant insertion (e.g., electronic insertion torque determination) [3], turn-out or reverse torque test [4], Periotest® [5, 6], and resonance frequency analysis ("RFA"), e.g., the Osstell method [7, 8].
The corresponding representatives are anti-lock braking (ABS) and traction control systems, torque vectoring, electronic stability control, electronic differentials et al. The systems responsible for the vertical dynamics of the vehicle are allocated to another domain "Ride Comfort" due to considerable amount of relevant publications.
The electronic control of the torque and of the speed of each one of the four independent wheels allows the EV to operate more efficiently avoiding slippage.
A new torque-activated electronic control unit made throttle adjustments based on vehicle speed, engine revolutions per minute, and pedal position.
The manettino — not an obscure pasta, but Italian for "little hand" — controls settings for Ferrari's remarkably transparent F1 Trac stability and traction systems, in tandem with an electronic differential that dynamically apportions torque between the rear wheels.
Electronic devices such as insertion torque devices, Periotest, and Osstell Mentor devices are commercially available instruments that allow quantitative implant stability analysis at a level that is not feasible with traditional clinical or radiographical methods [9].
