2.3.2.2 Init Tightening Angle
The Init Tightening Angle parameter defines the angle (in degrees) at which the screw is considered "seated" — meaning it has reached its final position before actual tightening begins.
In practice, this means:
Before reaching this angle, the screw is simply being positioned or inserted.
After reaching this angle, the system considers the screw ready for tightening, and any further rotation will count toward applying torque (especially if a torque wrench is used).
This allows for more realistic simulation, where a screw first needs to be fully inserted before it can be properly tightened.
