Power Tool Inspection and Quality Control Standards
InTouch is one of the most trusted and professional inspection firms for power tools manufactured in China.
Some of the tools which we have experience inspecting include:
- Chain Saws
- Blowers
- Grass Trimmers
- Brush Cutters
- Drills
- Crimpers
- Grinders
- Polishers
Some of the standards that we take under consideration when developing testing protocols and power tool inspection procedures include:
Power Tool Safety Standards
- ANSI B175.1-2000 Gasoline Powered Chain Saws
- ANSI B175.2-2000 Gasoline Powered Leaf Blowers
- ANSI B175.3-2003 Grass Trimmers and Brushcutters
- ANSI B175.4-2006 Portable, Handheld, Internal-Combustion-Engine-Tools
- ANSI B165.1-2010 Power-Driven Brushing Tools
- ISO 11148-1 Assembly power tools for non-threaded mechanical fasteners
- ISO 11148-2 Cutting-off and crimping power tools
- ISO 11148-3 Drills and tappers
- ISO 11148-4 Non-rotary percussive power tools
- ISO 11148-5 Rotary percussive drills
- ISO 11148-6 Assembly power tools for threaded fasteners
- ISO/FDIS 11148-7 Grinders
- ISO 11148-8 Sanders and polishers
- ISO 11148-9 Die grinders
- ISO 11148-10 Compression power tools
- ISO 11148-11 Nibblers and shears
- ISO/DIS 11148-12.2 Circular, oscillating and reciprocating saws
Power Tool Vibration Inspection Testing
These test methods specifically deal with the determination of the extent of vibration brought about by power tools such as drills and impact wrenches. Usability is established after determining the vibration levels of the different models and brands of power tools tested.
- ISO 8662 1-13 Measurement of vibrations at the handle
- ISO 28927-1 to 12 Test methods for evaluation of vibration emission
- ISO/TS 21108 Power Socket dimensions and tolerances of interface
Power Tool Noise Inspection Testing
Power tools are known to produce noise decibel levels beyond what is tolerable and safe for consumers. The following standards are formulated to aid manufacturers of power tools in the management of noise decibel levels.
- ANSI/ASA S12.15 Measurement of Sound Emitted from Portable Electric Power Tools and Fixed Electric Power Tools
- BSR/ASA S12.15 Measurement of noise from hand-operated power tools, excluding pneumatic tools
- ISO 15744 Noise measurement levels for Hand-held non-electric power tools
