Designed Differently. On Purpose.
ToolsControl is built differently by design. Instead of relying on individual, physical controllers across the line, tightening control is centralized in a resilient, server-based platform. This shift allows redundancy, recovery, and system changes to be built in from the start, not added later.
Â
By removing the dependency on dedicated hardware at each station, ToolsControl reduces physical footprint, simplifies updates, and enables faster rebalancing with minimal production impact. The result is a controller solution designed for modern manufacturing environments where flexibility, uptime, and scalability are expected.

Centralized control, engineered for uptime, flexibility, and scale.
Tools connect to a virtual controller
Control is managed centrally at the server level
Redundancy and self-healing protect production automatically
Built to handle failure, change, and scale
without disrupting the line.
without disrupting the line.
Self-healing
ToolsControl constantly monitors the status of each individual virtual controller. As soon as something wrong is detected, it activates a self-healing function, fixing the problem within seconds. Production continues with no operator involvement and within the tact time.
Intelligent failover
When ToolsControl identifies the specific malfunctioning hardware component it moves all controllers to the components that are still available and running in the system. The controllers are thereafter reinitiated, reconnected to the tools and brought back on-line.
ToolSwap
Imagine a situation when your tightening tool stops working. Normally, you would connect the tool to the controller and reprogram it to make it work. With ToolsControl you make a few clicks in the software and your tool gets automatically changed. Without any need for the operator to take any action.
Instant deployment
Configuration changes are deployed instantly across the system, without installing new hardware or stopping production. Updates, adjustments, and new setups can be rolled out in seconds, allowing lines to adapt quickly while maintaining control and consistency.
Be prepared before anything reaches production
ToolsControl lets you create virtual environments that mirror production, so firmware updates, new stations, and configuration changes can be tested safely before deployment.

Proven in Production.
A real environment case study with real constraints.
- Operating in a high-volume, wireless tool environment where frequent rebalancing is unavoidable
- Physical controllers added complexity, hardware sprawl, and risk during tool changes
- Moving tightening control to a centralized, server-level platform simplified deployment and management
- Tool changes and new deployments became faster, with fewer disruptions and less hardware on the line
Tools were deployed virtually in seconds, tool changes no longer required mounting new controllers, and rebalancing could be done with minimal production impact.
