TRAXX - Model M2 -Ultrasonic Bolt Tension Meter for Industrial Applications
The TRAXX-M2 ultrasonic bolt tension meter is an advanced measurement tool designed for precise evaluation of elongation in threaded fasteners. It accommodates fasteners of varied materials and lengths, from 5mm to 14 meters, leveraging ultrasonic technology to assess changes in length during the tightening process. This device is essential for ensuring the integrity and quality of bolt connections, facilitating real-time analysis of parameters such as elongation, load, stress, or strain. The device’s microcomputer automatically interprets these measurements, enabling operators to maintain optimal tension control. Particularly beneficial during assembly, it prevents uneven tension in seals, ensuring their effectiveness. Additionally, it aids in the design phase by allowing tension control to optimize assembly designs and reduce prototyping time. For maintenance, the TRAXX-M2 enables non-intrusive monitoring of bolt tension over time, enhancing maintenance efficiency and reliability without disassembling structures. Overall, it provides a comprehensive solution for tension verification across multiple industrial applications.
This ultrasonic bolt tension meter measures the elongation produced by tightening a threaded fastener. It accurately gauges the elongation in fasteners made from virtually any material, ranging from 5mm to 14 meters in length.
The TRAXX-M2 Bolt Tension Monitor provides a precise means to monitor bolt tension by employing ultrasonic measurement technique to assess the elongation (alteration in length) of bolts. This device facilitates periodic re-evaluation of bolt conditions, allowing for the continual assessment of bolt connection integrity and quality over time.
The operator utilizes the instrument to measure the length of a bolt or fastener both prior to and after tightening, facilitating the calculation of the delta or change in length. The on-board microcomputer autonomously interprets these measurements, presenting real-time data on parameters such as time (nanoseconds), elongation, load, stress, or strain incurred during the fastener stretching process.
