Over the last year, Sweeney’s digital readout torque multiplier series has been deployed to support mechanical needs on various commercial, fixed-wing aircraft models. The next development phase is for applications on aircraft used by the US military. These include the iconic Huey and Chinook rotor aircraft, the C-130 Hercules transport plane and the F-15 and F-16 fighter jets. The Sweeney brand digital multiplier has a high resolution seven-inch Android tablet display, which shows the operator the exact torque and turn values numerically and in live graph formats. Target values can be set on the unit so it is clear when the final torque plus angle has been reached or exceeded. This has allowed technicians to virtually eliminate variables and work with greater efficiency. Hydratight Sweeney will be exhibiting at the Aviation Week MRO Americas, Orange County Convention Centre, Orlando, FL, 25-27 April, 2017, booth #4838
