Case Study: a major European manufacturing company achieves leak reduction and full assembly traceability with Crane Electronics Group

Implementing a simple operator guidance system for a construction equipment manufacturer

Crane Electronics Group implemented a solution for one of Europe’s largest manufacturing companies, a major manufacturer of compact construction and agricultural equipment. The customer was facing costly hydraulic leaks during equipment testing, which were traced back to incorrectly tightened fasteners.

The solution from Crane Electronics involved a complete operator guidance system using WrenchStar Multi digital torque wrenches and TCI Multi controllers. This new process control system provided operators with step-by-step assembly guidance and ensured accurate, traceable data recording. The result was a significant reduction in leak failures and full traceability for quality audits. The customer was so pleased with the outcome that they plan to deploy the system to more assembly stations.
