Can AdaptiCS® smart technology track the tooltip for an overhead-mounted torque reaction system?

GCI’s proprietary smart software can track tooltip for torque tools utilizing either a rack-and-pinion or a drive-wheel setup. The rack-and-pinion approach is very reliable but has coverage area limits. The drive wheel option is great for larger areas as long as the wheel calibration is properly maintained.

What Our Clients Say

Our new GCI manipulator arm has been a great addition to our operation. It safely and efficiently handles 8-, 10-, and 12-inch Alpha valves without slowing down production. The installation also allowed us to reorganize the area — creating more room, reducing clutter, and enabling Alpha valve assembly in two separate work cells. This added flexibility really helps when we’re running large orders of 4- and 6-inch Alpha valves.
