Assemble to load
- Tighten to designed load (and not torque) with high accuracy
- Unnecessary torque checks and disassembly/reassembly eliminated
- Reduced assembly costs
- Guarantee of the respect of assembly procedure
Inspect to load
- Identification and traceability of each unique fastener
- Quick and accurate bolt load inspection
Complete data log of maintenance history permit:
- Reduced maintenance costs
- Predictive maintenance
Ultrasonic Fastener Technology
The Digital Bolt® technology provides direct measurement of load instead of torque in fasteners during assembly.
The transducer is only 50 microns thick. Form, fit or function of the fastener is not affected or changed, providing unique traceability
Load inspections are possible for monitoring throughout the life of the bolted joint.
