Abstract: A pneumatic screwing device includes a spindle for rotatably supporting a screwing tool, a pneumatically drivable rotor for rotating the spindle and a stator for housing the rotor. A gap is defined between the rotor and the stator to receive pressurized air and a supply conduit in the stator delivers pressurized air to the gap. Discharge conduits in the stator discharge pressurized air from the gap. In order to make the pneumatic screwing device more efficient than known devices, there is provided an expansion chamber in communication with the discharge conduits for expanding the pressurized air, the expansion chamber being positioned on an opposite side of the spindle with respect to the rotor and being in communication with the atmosphere.

Abstract: In a pneumatic impact wrench there is an output shaft that is connectable in a removable manner to a screw coupling member; a torque sensor, which is mounted on the shaft, sends signals to a control unit that calculates the energy transferred through the output shaft and controls the wrench on the basis of a comparison between the calculated energy and a predefined threshold value.

A gap is defined between the rotor and the stator to receive pressurised air and a supply conduit in the stator delivers pressurised air to the gap. Discharge conduits in the stator discharge pressurised air from the gap.
