Background: Clutched vs. Oil Pulse Tools When selecting an assembly tool, engineers typically compare clutched-type tools and oil pulse tools. Each has advantages and drawbacks: Clutched tools Torque Range: Up to ~400 in-lbs (33 ft-lbs). Effective for low to medium torque, but requires torque arms above ~80 in-lbs due to wrist […]

Turn Any Air Impact Wrench Into a Torque-Controlled Tool with ZIPPTORK
ZIPPTORK’s torque controller upgrades a standard pneumatic impact wrench into a torque-controlled fastening tool delivering ±10% to ±15% accuracy (joint-dependent). It closes the historical gap between “roughing” with impacts and “controlling” with expensive, high-maintenance pulse or DC tools. Paired with an integrated wireless torque transducer, ZIPPTORK captures every tightening—time, torque curve, angle, and result—so you […]
TMS Bolting Process Monitoring on Non-Shut-Off Tools – Demonstrate how to set up and achieve torque-controlled results using the torque substitute value, the Torque or Timer feature notification, and the data logging feature with a wireless torque transducer on non-shut-off tools. ZIPPTORK’s TTES Series Wireless Torque Transducer: Durable and […]
