Markets
When working with ACUTENSION – and no matter your bolting challenges – you can be assured that we have seen and solved them before.
Our management and staff possess the same drive and passion that encourages innovation, and our experience perfectly positions us to solve the Boulton challenges of both the present and future.
Power Generation
ACUTENSION has vast experience in supplying standard and ETO solutions to these industries. Turbine casings, RPVs, compressor rotors, shaft couplings, valves, pumps, heat exchangers, steam generators and pipework are just a few of the applications for which our ACU-GEN™ technology is designed. Maximise safety and achieve instant payback with ACU-CCGT™ and ACU-CORE™ platforms, for Gas/Steam and Nuclear respectively.
Powergen – Renewable
Innovation in renewables has never been more fast-paced, demanding similarly fast solutions. With same-day delivery achievable on specials, ACUTENSION is best poised to assist. Depending on your preferred operating pressure or existing hydraulic system, ACUTENSION can offer either ACU-BREEZE™, ACU-TERA™ ranges as a lower pressure, or ACU-DF™ as a higher pressure solution. And, we can assure bolt load traceability as part of our standard system. Contact us today to find out more.
Oil & Gas
Despite increasing energy transition to alternative sources, Oil & Gas remains an active and prominent sector. ACUTENSION offers several product lines, including ACURA™ and ACURA-SUB™ dual-acting technologies, and ACUTE™ and ACU-SUB™ in single acting, for all disciplines of pressure-rated pipeline flanges including ANSI/ASME, API, NORSOK/SPO among others. Suitable also for pressure vessels, heat exchangers, boilers and many other hydrocarbon applications, our patent-pending systems are designed to save plant owners and operators time and money, and we have a solution for whatever your preferred methodology or operating pressure.
Heavy Industrial
Leveraging technology from the other industries, the uptake of hydraulic tension in heavy industry is unprecedented. Our range of multi-pressure solutions has been designed to suit these exacting requirements. ACUTENSION has solutions for mining, tunnelling, presses, sheet metal and extrusion machines. We have also supplied for cranes, slewing rings, inspection, research and testing, and vibration applications. And if a standard solution will not suit, we can easily engineer one that will!
Civil & Transport
Rolling stock, aerospace and even spacecraft are just some of the applications for which our engineers have successfully supplied tensioning systems. Our ACURA™ and ACU-TERA™ technologies are ideal for the long-stroke requirements of structural, civil and suspension bridge bolting, and can be purchased or hired from stock. All the while, ACUTENSION can assure risk-free operation thanks to our patented Acu-Safe safety features.
