A remote start handle is designed to be wired into the tool controller to operate the torque tool. GCI is tool agnostic so a remote handle can be utilized to integrate into almost any 3rd party tool to work with our torque reaction arms.
The remote start feature works in tandem with a BEV (Brake Engagement Verification) circuit to lock up all of the joints in a torque reaction arm when the tool is activated. This ensures that the arm absorbs the reactive torque forces instead of the operator.
