Be ready for the future

The manufacturing industry is on a transformation journey toward smart final assembly solutions. The industry is moving to become digital and more flexible, while achieving higher sustainability goals. 

 

Line assembly will need to be effortlessly agile

  • Meet new demands from consumers and regulators
  • Free up resources to make production line adjustments easy and fast
  • Increase sustainable profitability of running the production plant

Tight production control is an essential target

  • Avoid small deviations and achieve greater accuracy
  • Reduce the risk of errors from human factors
  • Eliminate costly and time consuming mistakes
  • Work more effectively in cramped areas

The Tensor IxB platform
The Tensor IxB platform
is engineered to meet the demands of today and the future - handle complexity, increase precision and decreases production costs. It's ready to be integrated directly into your production system. The tools are fully managed by the integrated controller, without the need for any intermediate controller box. This reduces the hardware footprint on the line and enables a transformation towards a new smart flexible way of manufacturing.

The Tensor IxB family – Smart. Connected. Scalable.

The Tensor IxB family are handheld and cordless, designed to be lighter, faster, and smaller than previous generation tools. We provide a wide range of tool models, all with an integrated controller platform and a variety of batteries and accessories. The family consist of three ranges: the Tensor ITB-P, the Tensor ITB-A and the Tensor ICB.

Tensor ITB-P: Productivity, quality, and user experience to the next level

Designed with ergonomic excellence, the ITB-P increases productivity during prolonged use through multiple configurable operator feedback: colored front LED, vibrator and embedded display.

ITB-P is key for streamlining your processes and enhancing your overall operations thanks to unrivaled accuracy to secure your most challenging joints.

  • Up to 2 times faster than STB.
  • Operator feedback from the integrated eHMI display.
  • Reduce operator influence on the angle of the tightening with TrueAngle, an advanced tightening strategy that utilizes a built-in gyroscope.
  • Optimum operator feedback with vibrator and color front ligh

Tensor ITB-A: Fast and precise tightening

 

The Tensor ITB, with its wide range of models, is a truly productive cordless nutrunner, covering torques from 5Nm up to 200Nm. By integrating the controller intelligence into the tool, the freedom and flexibility is in the hand of the factory operator.                

  • Up to 30% faster than Tensor STB.
  • Wide range of models and tools accessories.
  • TrueAngle with the built in gyroscope.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Tensor ICB: Accessibility in cramped spaces

 

The Tensor ICB, a small, ergonomic nutrunner, is specifically designed for space-limited applications.

It can be operated with one hand, and both the trigger and the angle head can be adjusted to fit the need of the application and the operator.

  • 360° rotatable angle head and trigger.
  • 30% lighter and 30% shorter than the previous generation of battery tools.
  • Operator feedback from the integrated eHMI display.
  • Reduce operator influence on the angle of the tightening with TrueAngle, an advanced tightening strategy that utilizes a built-in gyroscope.

 

 

Easy integration to the Atlas Copco Ecosystem

The Tensor IxB family are the first Atlas Copco tools that can directly integrate into the Atlas Copco Ecosystem without any intermediate controller box. All managed by the powerful controller inside the tools. The Tensor IxB tools, together with the Atlas Copco Ecosystem system, bring an even more significant difference to your plant.

 

The Tensor IxB platform as part of the Smart Integrated Assembly Ecosystem enables you to improve assembly stations and significantly reduce costs associated with assembly tools, while at the same time improving the productivity, quality, and ergonomics in the station as well as providing the flexibility needed in today’s environment of frequent change.

 

The Smart Integrated Ecosystem offers visualization equipment, positioning solutions, and error-proofing accessories all the way to bolt positioning. As well as a full assembly software suite for controlling controller set-ups, collecting and analyzing tightening data, and managing quality assurance. We also can provide station control and work guidance solutions thru the Smart AMS and SQS solutions and a complete service portfolio supporting from startup to repair and optimization.

 

This is Smart Integrated Assembly in reality, which simplifies connection, reduces installation, and supports connectivity, visualization, error proofing, and data in one package linked together.
