TORQUEMASTER® MAKE/BREAK UNITS
TorqueMaster® Make/Break Units
Introduction
The TorqueMaster Make/Break Unit is a ratchet-style
horizontal torque unit designed to safely and efficiently
make up and break out threaded tubular tool joint
connections of downhole tools and equipment. These
units are fully hydraulic and come standard with a fixed
headstock bed assembly, a traversing tailstock, a hydraulic
control console and offer a wide selection of options and
accessories allowing for made-to-order configurations.
Features and Benefits
The 1689 and 8025 models incorporate fully closed
headstocks while the model 8026 has a hinged
headstock that opens and allows for the top-loading
of work pieces into the headstock. This hinged
feature eliminates the need to ‘stab’ tools into the
unit and helps increase productivity. The 8045 offers
a fully opened headstock and tailstock, allowing for
top-loading of work pieces on both sides.
Safe and Easy to Use
– Can be operated by one person
A single set of tong dies is used over the full OD range of
the unit, eliminating the need to constantly change dies
as the work piece OD changes. The TorqueMaster Unit is
safely and efficiently operated by one person from a low
pressure, electric powered, standalone hydraulic control
console that can be wired to suit any power supply.
The console comes complete with auxiliary valves,
control handles and outlets to accommodate additional
accessories.
Power Traverse Tailstock w/ HD Suspension
– Controlled from the console, the tailstock is designed to carry a balanced load of
5,000 lb and makes handling the work piece easier
Fully Customizable
– Accessories are chosen and configured to suit exact service requirements and can
be added/removed at any time
Increased Efficiency
– Provides fast and accurate make/break capabilities that will increase production
Clamp Force Proportional to Torque
– Clamp force increase with torque to reduce the risk of slippage during make/break
operations
Self-Centering Synchronized Clamp Cylinders
– Torque is applied about the axial center line of the tool, ensuring accurate torque
measurements and preventing thread damage
Tong Dies
– One set for the full OD range of the unit and can be easily changed when worn
