PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
The Torque Hub utilises the same technology as our Torque Logic, it delivers over 99% accurate
torque readings. Data is sent over a robust 2.4 GHz RF FHSS signal to the hand held display / data
logger. The Torque Hub measures not only torque, but also inclination.
TECHNOLOGY
Utilising strain gauges, internal CPU, RAM and other electronics, the Torque Hub can guarantee
highly accurate, real time torque readings. An inclinometer built into the Torque Hub ensures that you
maintainaconsistent angle of insertion. The Torque Hub software records important data such
aspile number, final torque, peak torque and elapsed time. This data can be exported to an
Excel spread- sheetand transferred by e-mailor memorystick to your engineer/customer.
SAFETY
Consistent andreal time monitoring oftorque will prevent over-torque which can often resultin pile
failures (piles sheared or buckled). The inclinometer also removes the need (and associated risk) for
personnel tostand beneath the drive head toassist the operator in maintaining a proper insertion
