We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Torque Tester", and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest. Let me be your guide.
 
Start with the news release Portable torque tools auto-detect applications from Mountz, which we summarised at the time by saying "The LTT torque analyser is designed for torque calibration, joint testing, auditing or for force and load measurement or verification of load cells". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Indian show is debut for torque control range from Crane Electronics: "Indian distributor Summit introduced Crane Electronics' torque control and management products to the Indian market at a recent exhibition in Bangalore".
 
In March 2007, we covered the news from Crane Electronics concerning its CapStar II torque tester - take a look at Torque testers adapt to jerry can dimensions which says: "Crane Electronics helped Thornton and Ross measure torque on jerry can containers by designing a special baseplate that mounts on the CapStar II instrument to securely hold the container".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Crane Electronics, Torque tester takes on larger containers, as well as Digital torque tester covers wide ranges from Crane Electronics, and Kit creates easy-to-use torque tester from Datum Electronics.
