Consistent
Using multiple bolt tensioning tools on a bolted joint gives a much improved uniform bolt load across all bolts.Bolt load is directly proportional to the pressure applied to the tensioner.
Dependable
Multiple bolt tensioners offer a rapid and accurate
method of tightening a bolt. Conversion kits are available to convert a tensioner from one bolt size to another offering an economical and versatile solution.
Safe
Bolt load is applied axially to the bolt. Inconsistencies such as friction, bending and lubricant are not a factor when using bolt tensioners. No torsional stresses are involved.
Atlas Copco BTS-Bolt Tightening Software
Atlas Copco software allows users to manage and rapidly calculate bolt tensioner pressures. Atlas Copco Bolt Load Software has been designed with the philosophy of minimal input, maximum output. Documentation for multiple bolted joint projects can be created very quickly with minimal operator input. The software package contains data for all standard flanges along with the correct tensioner pressures to apply.
Integrated into the design of each CTST tensioners are enhanced safety features including mechanisms to remove the hazard of over-stroking the tensioner rams. All CTST Models feature a mechanism which directs oil flow away from the operator in the instance the ram is over-stroked and exhausts oil harmlessly into the internal section of the tensioner.
