Choose the Right Product Category for Your Tightening Workstation
KURAN products address different parts of an industrial tightening workstation. Start with the problem you need to solve—reaction torque, process control, selection errors, or tool integration—then use the comparison below to identify the most relevant product category before reviewing individual models.
| Workstation Requirement | Recommended Product Category | What to Evaluate |
|---|---|---|
| Reduce reaction torque and support tool weight | Recommended Product Category Torque Reaction Arms | What to Evaluate Torque capacity, working reach, tool weight, mounting method, available space, and position-detection requirements. |
| Guide tightening programs and record process results | Recommended Product Category Tightening Control Systems | What to Evaluate Program management, position guidance, result traceability, tool communication, and PLC, MES, or ERP integration. |
| Prevent incorrect socket, bit, or program selection | Recommended Product Category Poka-Yoke Devices | What to Evaluate The selection error to prevent, required locking or verification method, program switching, and visual status feedback. |
| Connect tools and improve operator control | Recommended Product Category Tool Integration Accessories | What to Evaluate Tool interface, adapter compatibility, mounting structure, operating controls, and the selected torque-arm configuration. |
Selection tip: A complete workstation may combine products from several categories. Start with the primary process risk, then confirm tool, torque, installation, control, and integration requirements.
