Abstract: A device and an inspection method for inspecting screw and nut assemblies in an aircraft, comprising a mechanical tool and a digital human-machine interface. The mechanical tool comprises a housing comprising a bearing surface defining a reference plane, a support beam mounted to be translationally mobile inside the housing, a linear encoder configured to measure, in use, a distance between the reference plane and a bottom face of the mobile support beam. The digital human-machine interface comprises a central unit, a display screen, an application and a database in which are stored validity ranges or standardized distances relating to types of assembly, the application and the database being loaded and operational in the central unit.

Abstract: A fixing element for components of an assembly, comprising a rod which is formed by a cylindrical shaft and an end, the rod being a metal component which is at least partially surface-treated by means of anode oxidation and coated over at least a portion of the cylindrical shaft with a lubricating coating. Such a fixing element enables the electrical continuity to be ensured with the components during mounting with moderate interference in the assembly.
