"Codiun Limited is a company that specializes in providing innovative solutions to the rail industry and as such we have designed, developed and patented a temporary rail defect clamp. This temporary rail defect clamp is employed on the rail infrastructure when a portion of the rail requires either repairing or replacing ensuring that rail traffic can continue to operate. Our rail defect clamp comes in two parts that sit either side of a rail track and is tightened together with a single bolt.
Currently It is normal for rail engineers to tighten this bolt with a petrol impact wrench but this practice is fast becoming obsolete due to the requirement for safer working practices and the need to apply a torque to the bolt that is accurate and can be recorded as such. With this in mind we tasked ourselves to source a torque tool that fitted the following criteria: transducer battery powered torque, acceptable hand arm vibration, digital audit trail and ease of use. After researching the market there was only one tool available on the market that fitted these requirements and that was the Norbar Evotorque Battery Tool (EBT).
The EBT is now part of our solution offering to the rail industry and we appreciate its ability to organize a work program from an intuitive PC program (Norbar EvoLog). The EvoLog gives the rail engineers the ability to set a work program, prior to a site visit, ensuring the quality of application. It also ensures that there is a complete record of that work and that that record can be downloaded wirelessly to a PC for analysis.
The EBT is an excellent tool and coupled with excellent support we are confident we have chosen the right product for our needs."
