tJRS Opta – Joint Simulator Bench

The tJRS Opta combines many of Crane’s proven class leading products along with innovative techniques based on simple mechanical principles, allowing the user complete confidence in the results of their tool testing.

The tJRS Opta from Crane is the latest generation Joint Rate Simulator featuring a multiple patented system. As with all products in the Opta range the tJRS integrates seamlessly into the OMS software package to provide a complete torque measurement solution.

Traditionally, automated joint simulators have used friction brake systems in place of a threaded fastener. The reasons for this were to overcome the two main issues which are having to reverse, or back-off, after each rundown and the cumbersome nature of re-configuring the joint characteristic.

Whilst friction brakes can easily be reset, removing the back-off issue, they introduce many of their own problems often resulting in the simulator having significantly different properties to actual joints the tools will be used on.

The revolutionary tJRS Opta combines the benefits of using a threaded fastener with the convenience of a fully automated simulator.
