Tensor IxB

In this video, Rodney introduces the ITB and ICB Integrated Controller tools and describes some of the advanced features they come with. Features discussed include a new drive unit called Actidrive, which allows for sufficient ventilation and high cycle counts, an eHMI software for operator feedback, and more. 

In this video, Rodney introduces the ITB-P, and provides a brief overview of the features, values, and benefits of the tool.

Watch now as Rodney covers the process of connecting to an ITB/ICB tool using a Micro USB connector. Components needed for this process: A Torx 10 screwdriver for tool cover removal, a male USB-A (or USB-C, depending on your device) to a female Micro-USB cable. 

In this video, Rodney gives viewers an in-depth look at how to connect to and set up an ITB/ICB tool as an access point. When this process is completed, users will then be able to WiFi devices directly to the tool. Components needed for this process: A Torx 10 screwdriver for tool cover removal, a male USB-A (or USB-C, depending on your device) to a female Micro-USB cable. 

Here, Rodney shows viewers the process of setting up an ITB/ICB tool as a client for a wireless network. Rodney will also describe the components involved in this process: A wireless setting, a Torx 10 screwdriver for tool cover removal, and a male USB-A (or USB-C, depending on your device) to a female Micro-USB cable.  

Here, Rodney demonstrates how to use the FMS Portable (FMSP) to provision licenses on an ICB/ITB battery tool. Viewers will learn how to access the Atlas Copco License Portal, download a Capability Response file (.bin) and install it on an ICB/ITB tool using the FMSP. Components needed: An FMSP and a Torx 10 screwdriver for tool cover removal.

Tune in as Rodney gives viewers a thorough demonstration on how to configure a Reverse program, along with how to build a Two Step tightening strategy, a Joint Conditioning tightening strategy, and a Torque + Angle tightening strategy. For each demonstration, Rodney will also make a few tightenings and review the results in detail.

-Creating a Two Step tightening strategy: 02:51 

-Creating a Joint Conditioning tightening strategy: 08:00 

-Creating a Torque + Angle tightening strategy: 10:43 

In this video, Rodney covers the result view feature on the ITB/ICB integrated controller battery tools. Viewers will learn how to access and use the results view feature, which displays tightening results on the screen in real-time. 

Here, Rodney shows viewers how to connect to ToolsTalk 2, Atlas Copco’s controller programming software, and ToolsNet 8, Atlas Copco’s process monitoring and data analysis software, using an IxB tool.

Watch now as Rodney covers the process of connecting an ICB tool to the Selector 6, Atlas Copco's wireless socket and bit selector. Viewers will learn what needs to be done to connect an ICB tool to the Selector 6, and how to configure it in the web interface. 

Here, Rodney covers the process involved in switching an IAM (SD) card from one IxB tool to another. Rodney also reviews which information is stored in the IAM (SD) card and transferred between IxB tools, and which is not. 

In this video, Rodney gives viewers an in-depth look at the process of importing and exporting important data on a Tensor ICB/ITB. Viewers will learn how to complete an export of all the settings and results from their system, examine what's in the export file, and import everything back to the tool.

Tune in as Rodney gives viewers an in-depth look at the process of updating software on an ITB/ICB tool. Software updates for these tools can be done wirelessly or through the USB port on the back of the tool. Viewers will learn how to browse for a .zip software file and perform a software update. 

Watch now as Rodney covers the advanced wireless settings available on the ICB/ITB integrated controller tools. Viewers will learn how to use an IxB tool to see and diagnose Wi-Fi signal strength in real-time. 

In this video, Rodney offers viewers a brief introduction to the ITB/ICB batteries and chargers. Available in three voltage options (14V, 18V, and 36V), Atlas Copco’s battery range for the ITB/ICB tools is intelligent and ergonomic. With LEDs for clear operator feedback, it’s easy to see the status of battery’s health and charge. 

In this video, Product Manager Rodney Hill offers an in-depth look at the eHMI feature of the IxB tool family. The eHMI on these tools provides battery status, Wi-Fi status, along with OK/NOK results during rundown. Users can also access a variety of menus through the eHMI, such as the tightening menu, batch sequence menu, tool menu, and more.

Watch now as Rodney guides viewers through the process of configuring the Power Focus 8 (PF8) to work with Extensible Authentication Protocol - Transport Layer Security (EAP - TLS). This video is also a great guide for configuring our family of Tensor IxB tools that support this same standard. Keep watching to configure your PF8 or IxB tools today!

One of the more obvious features that separate the PF8 from previous Power Focus controllers is its antennas. The PF8 has two antennas that stick out of the top of the display. These antennas provide a great enhancement to the range of wireless and Bluetooth communications. But that’s not the only feature that makes the PF8 different! Keep watching to learn more about the PF8 and the wireless features it has to offer.

In this video, Rodney walks through the process of connecting a Tensor ITB tool to the ToolsTalk 2 software from Atlas Copco. For this process, viewers will learn how they can add licenses for ToolsTalk 2 to a Tensor IxB integrated controller tool.

Welcome to the IxB Product Essential Series! This series of educational videos is presented by Atlas Copco’s very own Product Manager, Rodney Hill. Today, Rodney is joined by Doug Wendyker (Product Specialist) to demonstrate how to calibrate an ITB tool with an STbench. Tune in to see just how easy this process is!

Welcome to the IxB Product Essential Series. This series of educational videos are presented by Atlas Copco’s very own Product Manager, Rodney Hill. In today’s video, Rodney covers how to connect an IxB battery tool to a Power Focus 8 using Wi-Fi infrastructure.

In today’s video, Rodney covers how to share a wireless device with a wireless network that’s using the Protected Extensible Authentication Protocol (PEAP). This video covers how this can be done using the PF8, however, it can also be accomplished using Atlas Copco’s family of IxB tools. Whichever you use, the process is made simple thanks to Rodney’s thoroughness. Configuring with WPA2 Enterprise and PEAP will provide you with higher-level security than traditional security methods.
