2.3.2.7 Tightening Angle

The Tightening Angle defines the amount of rotation (in degrees) required after the screw has seated (i.e., passed the Init Tightening Angle) in order to reach the target torque.

In other words:

• Once the screw reaches the Init Tightening Angle, it is considered fully inserted.

• From that point, the screw must be turned further by the Tightening Angle to simulate the elastic stretch or compression of the material — just like in real-world torque-based fastening.

• This additional rotation contributes to reaching the defined Torque Value.
