Kolver has released v42 of the K-DUCER’s firmware, introducing automatic seating point detection.
The new function improves fastening performance and precision, particularly on hard joints, and enables more reliable running torque monitoring & compensation, without requiring complex configuration and tuning. The update is available free of charge for all users.

In advanced electronics, medical devices, and microtechnology, airborne particle contamination control is critical to product integrity. Cleanrooms, classified according to ISO 14644-1, provide a controlled environment where every component can be assembled without compromise. Kolver brings this philosophy to its tools: our K-DUCER screwdrivers, now tested and assessed for cleanroom use per ISO 14644-14, deliver reliability and precision for critical production environments.

The latest URCap update introduces a series of improvements designed to make robot programming even more intuitive, organized, and powerful. Let’s take a closer look at what’s new and, most importantly, how these updates can simplify your daily workflow.

One of our clients, a manufacturer of military-grade gearboxes for steering systems, faced a challenge in measuring the running torque (also known as prevailing torque) of their gearboxes. Historically, they relied on a manual and less accurate method for testing torque, which involved using a spline drive and a manual torque reader. This traditional setup was time-consuming and prone to inaccuracies, particularly when measuring running torque at low speeds (such as 40 RPM).
