BOLTSENSE®

A SMARTER BOLT FOR A SMARTER FUTURE

BoltSense® is a solution focused product family that provides users the tools to quickly diagnose and define bolting procedures. At its heart the LMF+® (Load Monitoring Fastener) provides real-time tension data that can be used to achieve critical joint strength. Working with the suite of BoltSense® products users can greatly increase the efficiency, reliability and accountability of the assembly and repair of key infrastructure.

“Revolutionize your assemblies and maintenance with real-time, precise and easy to monitor information…”

LOAD MONITORING FASTENERS

You can't always prevent bolts from loosening in demanding, vibration-intensive operation environments. But you can prevent loose bolts from causing costly, unplanned downtime.

With load monitoring fasteners (LMF+®), you can observe the tension of critical bolts in real time from any phone, handheld reader, or connected device—helping you verify proper bolt tension during installation and monitor performance while equipment is in service.

PREVENT RELIABILITY ISSUES BEFORE THEY HAPPEN

Load Monitoring Fasteners (LMF+®) and Load Indicating Fasteners (LIF) have been proven in the field to be superior alternatives to conventional tension and elongation control methods such as direct measurement, ultrasonic equipment, load cells, SmartBolts, DTI washers, and other products such as the MaxBolt and SPC4 product. Work with Copper State’s Global Site Technical Support team for onsite installation and application assistance.

BOLTSENSE® PRODUCTS

Load Monitoring Fastener+® (LMF+®) is a wireless, accurate, and automatic load monitoring fastener system. The LMF+® is extremely easy to use and will allow users to continually observe and record the true tension (tightness) of fasteners, both during installation and while equipment is in operation. Automated alerts will notify you if tension exceeds or falls below predetermined and updateable values or thresholds.

Load Indicating Fastener includes the same base fastener as the LMF+® product, but without the continuous transmitting cap. Instead, the LIF has a stainless steel dust cap, and readings can be taken anytime with a clip-on reader (both magnetic and screw-on.)
