Steel Mills: INSTAclamp Lock Rings 66% Lighter, 7-Second Installation
Retention rings can be slow to reattach as they require multiple people to fasten them securely. This was the fatigue of doing business as there was no solution – until Hyson™ introduced its newest solution.
Production downtime can cost OEMs thousands of dollars. Steel mills have often had to deal with unplanned downtime when steel split retention rings would fall off during operations, sometimes resulting in chocks falling into the mill during roll change.
Retention rings can be slow to reattach as they require multiple people to fasten them securely. This was the fatigue of doing business as there was no solution – until Hyson™ introduced INSTAclamp™ Lock Rings.
