Abstract (en)

[origin: EP3275596A1] [Technical Problem] Provided is a threaded member tightening tool having a function of temporarily tightening screws. [Solution to Problem] A motor-driven screwdriver (1) includes a bit holder (18) securely holding a screwdriver bit (16), a drive motor (32) rotationally driving the bit holder, and a control unit (30) controlling the drive of the drive motor. In the motor-driven screwdriver (1), the control unit (30) controls the drive motor (32) such that the bit holder (18) is first rotated forward by a first rotation quantity and then automatically rotated reversely by a second rotation quantity less than the first rotation quantity. The control unit (30) controls the quantity of rotation of the bit holder (32) by controlling the drive time of the drive motor (32). If the forward drive time (first period of time) is set so that the first rotation quantity of the forward drive is a rotation quantity at which the screw will not be seated on a to-be-fastened member, the screw can be temporarily tightened even when using a toothed lock washer or the like, which prevents a once tightened screw from being easily loosened.
