OEM MANUFACTURING

WHERE OUR PROVEN BOLTING SOLUTIONS SET THE STANDARD IN CRITICAL APPLICATIONS

TorcUP tools are utilized in OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) manufacturing for specialized assembly processes, often involving custom-designed solutions to improve ergonomics, safety, and efficiency.

KEY MACHINERY AND APPLICATION POINTS

Custom OEM Applications

A primary example of an OEM custom application is in water tank manufacturing.

  • The Application: A manufacturer utilizes TorcUP tools for the assembly of large water tanks.

  • The Solution: An RP-1000 Raptor series pneumatic torque wrench is used, paired with a custom-designed reaction arm.

  • Benefits: This setup provides ergonomic operation and functions at a lower decibel level compared to the traditional impact wrenches previously used in the facility.

Industrial Pump Manufacturing

The sources also highlight the assembly and repair stages of giant industrial slurry pumps as a key OEM market.

  • Manufacturer Example: Schurco is noted as a company that manufactures these massive pumps, where TorcUP tools are used during the assembly and repair stages.

  • Tooling Preferences: While specific tools for Schurco aren't detailed, other pump specialists use TX-4 and TX-8 hydraulic wrenches for assembly due to high torque requirements and space restrictions.

Mobile Shear Manufacturing

TorcUP has tested its tools with several of the largest manufacturers of mobile shears, which are heavy-duty attachments used in scrap yards.

  • Key Manufacturers: Genesis, LaBounty, and Fortress.

  • Torque Needs: These units require significant power, with torque requirements often exceeding 3000+ lbf-ft.

  • Recommended OEM Setup: The Volta VT-2000 and VT-3000 battery tools are frequently used, often paired with specialized Standard or Extended Lathe Arms designed to reach specific offset bolts on the shear frames.
