Link Tools Technology Boon To Reliable Factory Modernization And Automation
Share:
The shift to globalization in manufacturing has dramatically increased the need for factory modernization and automation. And as always, uninterrupted performance has continued to be
a critical component in any manufacturing success story.
LINK® Tools have been used extensively in the on-going maintenance of nuclear power facilities in the United States and Canada and in the retrofitting of missiles to the U.S. Navy's nuclear powered submarine fleet. The benefits of using LINK tools are equally important, however, in relation both to installation and maintenance of all costly machinery.
Whatever the industry, from manufacturing to quality control and inspection to packaging, the overriding issue is to keep complex technology running at maximum efficiency at all times. Modern equipment routinely combines characteristics of large equipment with the precision operations traditionally associated with robotics, where tool separations can halt line work and endanger or destroy component machinery.
Link's unique 'hand-to-work' promise, which insures no dropped sockets or tool separations, is unmatched by any other hand tools. Their ability to lock together with sockets and extendors also makes LINK Tools superior in repairs to areas which are not easily accessible for ordinary hand tools. LINK Tools are the first hand tools to ever receive certification documentation regarding their unique ability to stay attached to each other during use.
In the nuclear power industry LINK Tools have been applauded for their safety features and for the ease with which users were able to integrate them into their daily tasks. According to one executive, "This was not a product that required extensive or expensive training to be effective."
The LINK tools were awarded a "Q-Mark" by TÃœV, Europe's premiere licensing organization, for safety, durability and ergonomic excellence. Further impacting the efficiency-conscious atmosphere required in today's corporations and businesses, LINK Tools received a second "Q-Mark" for fostering productivity in addition to ergonomic excellence. In prolonged on-the-job studies, LINK tools were certified to significantly improve task performance as well as reducing body strain.
LINK Tools system incorporates all drive size tools, from 1/4 inch to 3/4 inch. The company also offers accessories, including the new Ratcheting UniDriver® and a 1/4 inch drive Locking Electric-Tool Adapter. For a complete catalogue, access link-tools or call 1-888-433-4234.
