This paper presents the proposal of electronically controlled torque screwdriver for drawing screws into bone tissue. This equipment will be used in the experimental practice. The development of the equipment was inspired by the necessity to measure of torque sizes which apply by screwing of screws into cervical vertebrae after crash operations. The measured values will be used for looking for maximum torques and the torque, when the screw will be carried out in the bone tissue.
