Abstract

A pressure-sensitive cover installer includes a base, a fixing body defining a recessed portion for receiving a main body, a support portion, an air cylinder movably connected to the support portion, a positioning fixture defining a number of through holes therein, and for receiving a number of covers, a controller, a motor for controlling movement of the air cylinder, a pressure sensing member fixed below the air cylinder, and a display. The air cylinder is forced by the motor to drive the pressure sensing member to press the covers onto the main body; the main body resists the pressure sensing member to generate a pressure of a resistance. The pressure sensing member senses the pressure of the resistance to generate a pressure signal to the controller. The controller analyzes the pressure signal to generate a pressure value to be displayed on the display.
