Power & Renewable Energy

Power generation utilising fossil fuels or nuclear power is the current typical method in the energy industry today. However, as global reserves slowly become depleted and concerns around climate change and the need for more sustainable energy generation, the influence and investment in renewable energy are increasing, and so is the need for accurate and traceable torque measurement capabilities.

Within the solar power industry, torque is a major consideration for installers of solar panels. With these systems often sitting at great heights or with a need to withstand extreme conditions, ensuring that panels are securely fastened is critical. The same counts for wind power generation with thousands of critical fasteners and bolts helping to prevent failure and maintain safety.

As a global leader in torque measurement, Crane offers torque measurement and tool testing solutions at all life-cycle stages from manufacture, installation and inspection to routine service and maintenance.

Our products can provide peace of mind for manufacturers and end-users with our high-quality torque management and measurement solutions, ensuring safe and secure fastening of components and efficient auditing and testing of assembly tooling.

Enhancing safety and improving performance

The average wind turbine uses thousands of fasteners and bolts. Each needs to be tightened to the exact torque measurement specifications to prevent failure and damage and ensure the safety of the large constructions.

If a wind turbine was to fail, it could lead to costly downtime and big repair bills. It could also lead to a loss of power generation if the turbine were out of action for a considerable period of time.

It is also crucial that torque measurement tools are calibrated to ensure they measure and record accurate measurements. At Crane Electronics, we can provide expert technical advice, high-quality support and a dedicated service, repair and calibration facility for all our innovative torque measurement products.

The growing need for torque measurement in the renewable energy industry

With new technologies evolving and becoming more and more common, the requirement for torque management and measurement during manufacture and assembly is becoming increasingly evident.

With the growing popularity and ease of access to renewable wind energy, for example, the manufacture, installation and routine maintenance of wind turbines requires the torque within critical components to be audited and recorded.

For equipment such as this operating in hostile weather conditions or harsh environme such as offshore wind turbines, it is vital that accurate and traceable torque measurement is a consideration at all stages.
