MILWAUKEE® Introduces the Future of Precision Fastening for the Solar Industry

Developed and tested for the solar industry, M18 FUEL™* ONE-KEY™ TORQUE-SENSE™ ½” Controlled Mid-Torque Impact Wrench with Friction Ring and M18 FUEL™ ONE-KEY™ TORQUE-SENSE™ ½” Controlled Compact Impact Wrench with Friction Ring are the industry’s most repeatable impact wrenches.

TORQUE-SENSE™ torque control overcomes common variances seen on the job site, maintaining target torque better than competitive products that use blow counting algorithms.

This performance is enabled by new to world sensors designed in house by MILWAUKEE®, that feed sophisticated machine learning algorithms. Every trigger pull is recorded, and data can be downloaded via the ONE-KEY** application for customisable reporting to ensure confident installation. This product is ideal for utility-scale solar projects were eliminating the 2-step method on the jobsite can deliver up to 3X faster installation speed. MILWAUKEE® offers best-in-class performance and application speed with M18 FUEL technology, enabled by POWERSTATE brushless motors, REDLINK PLUS tool intelligence, and REDLITHIUM battery technology. Operating torque range for the Compact version is 68 – 203 Nm and 68 – 338 Nm for the Mid-Torque option***.

Served by large construction companies that purchase large quantities of tools and support equipment, this segment’s growth requires complementary expansion in EPC (Engineering, Procurement and Construction) capacity. For industries serving these EPCs, important opportunities are consequently created, requiring significant growth in solar farm construction to meet this growing demand and innovative equipment to support this acceleration.

TORQUE-SENSE™ technology improves quality and productivity, inevitably leading to significant cost savings for solar companies.

 

MILWAUKEE® is committed to improving productivity by providing performance-driven and trade-focused solutions so users can perform an entire day's work on one battery system. The M18 FUEL* ONE-KEY TORQUE-SENSE ½” Controlled Mid-Torque Impact Wrench with Friction Ring and M18 FUEL ONE-KEY TORQUE-SENSE ½” Controlled Compact Impact Wrench with Friction Ring are fully compatible with the entire M18 line, now offering more than 290 solutions.

 

*M18 FUEL is engineered for the most demanding tradesmen in the world. Delivering unrivalled performance, all M18 FUEL products feature three MILWAUKEE®-exclusive innovations—The POWERSTATE Brushless Motor, REDLITHIUM Battery Pack and REDLINK PLUS Intelligence Hardware and Software—that deliver unmatched power, run-time, and durability on the jobsite. Simply put, M18 FUEL tools are the most powerful 18V cordless tools in their class.

**ONE-KEY is the first digital platform for tools and equipment. By integrating industry-leading tool electronics with a custom-built cloud-based program, ONE-KEYprovides a new level of control and access to information that revolutionises the way work gets done. The ability to customise, track and manage through ONE-KEY fundamentally changes the way users interact with their tools.
