The system can be used with a standard E-RAD BLU torque wrench, but with an added remote control on each control box. The robot itself weighs only 16-18 Kg (depending on confi guration) and can be easily transported and assembled up tower in a couple of minutes. The E-RADs are placed as usual on the fl ange without the traditional reaction arm and the robot slides in from the front and latches effortlessly on to the E-RADs.
With the advanced wireless HMI of the ABM, the bolting parameters can be programmed manually, or scanned by means of a QR code. The ABM takes control of the E-RADs and retrieves all bolting data via the open protocol interface. The system requires password protected authorization for adjusting bolting process parameters and monitors the entire tightening process precisely for error free bolting.
All results and actions are recorded in an extensive data log that can be easily forwarded by email directly from the HMI.
The ABM requires only one operator, the robot does all the heavy lifting and indicates cleary what the operator needs to do. ABM REQUIRES ONLY ONE OPERATOR, THE ROBOT DOES ALL THE HEAVY LIFTING AND INDICATES CLEARLY WHAT THE OPERATOR NEEDS TO DO.
The ABM can be adjusted to fit onto a wide range of wind tower flanges from different manufacturers.
