Case Studies
Hytorc: Multi Industry publication by Torque solution provider on ‘Bearing Face Knurling
Hytorc needed a simplified reliable Bolt Load Measurement method that was comparable to controlled laboratory measuring rods that would work at high temperatures for research papers. The study was on the impact of Bearing Face Knurling on bold load relaxation at elevated temperatures.
Compact flanges were used on a NPS 40 gas line on an offshore platform.
The main challenge was the inability of the existing intelligent bolt to record bolt stress at elevated temperatures. This gap in data limited the researcher's understanding of how different materials behaved under various thermal conditions, which was crucial for improving industry practices.
Coke Drums operate at high temperature and see extreme cycles of operation every 24 hours.
The main challenge was the inability of the existing intelligent bolt to record bolt stress at elevated temperatures. This gap in data limited the researcher's understanding of how different materials behaved under various thermal conditions, which was crucial for improving industry practices.
A refinery had continuous nuisance leakage from a bank of high temperature heat exchangers with 3/4” bolts.
The main challenge was the inability of the existing intelligent bolt to record bolt stress at elevated temperatures. This gap in data limited the researcher's understanding of how different materials behaved under various thermal conditions, which was crucial for improving industry practices.
In 2022, a leading industrial firm faced a significant challenge with chronic leaks during their Turnaround (TAR)
The main challenge was the inability of the existing intelligent bolt to record bolt stress at elevated temperatures. This gap in data limited the researcher's understanding of how different materials behaved under various thermal conditions, which was crucial for improving industry practices.
A researcher in the field of bolted flange joint studies had previously published a paper in 2020
The main challenge was the inability of the existing intelligent bolt to record bolt stress at elevated temperatures. This gap in data limited the researcher's understanding of how different materials behaved under various thermal conditions, which was crucial for improving industry practices.
