RUD ACP-TURNADO

Product catalog summary
Introduction
The RUD ACP-TURNADO is introduced as a pioneering smart lifting point designed to enhance safety in lifting operations by eliminating dangerous transverse loads and preventing load falls. It features a unique spring mechanism that aligns the lift bail with the load direction, thus preventing damage to cranes and loads.
Specifications
The ACP-TURNADO is available in sizes ranging from M8 to M100, suitable for various applications. It offers up to 30% higher Working Load Limit (WLL) compared to similar products and complies with the American standard ASME B30.26.
Design and Features
The product is optimized for different load weights with three distinct designs tailored to specific WLL ranges. Key features include an innovative spring mechanism, swivel joint, wear lenses, integrated RFID transponder, and safety factors of 4:1 and 5:1. It also includes combination head bolts and patented wear markings for determining discard age.
Innovations
The ACP-TURNADO includes an RFID transponder compatible with the RUD BLUE-ID SYSTEM, facilitating efficient equipment inspection. It supports custom thread solutions, offering flexibility in thread length, type, and diameter.
Performance and Applications
The ACP-TURNADO is available in a comprehensive range of thread sizes in both metric and UNC inch threads, making it suitable for various lifting applications. It is designed for safe, precise, and ergonomic handling of heavy loads.
Conclusion
The RUD ACP-TURNADO sets new standards in lifting technology by addressing the limitations of conventional lifting points. Its advanced features and customizable options make it a versatile and reliable solution for industrial lifting needs.
Overview
The document provides technical specifications and data for various ACP-TURNADO products, focusing on load weight capacities, dimensions, and tightening torques.
Specifications
It lists maximum total load weights for different thread types, both metric and UNC inch, with a safety factor of 5:1. Detailed tables specify working load limits (WLL), weights, dimensions, and tightening torques for ACP-TURNADO, ACP-TURNADO MAX, and ACP-TURNADO SUPERMAX products.
Technical Data
Each product type is detailed with specific measurements such as diameter, length, and torque requirements, organized by thread type and size.

RUD ACP-TURNADO-6

Optimised for any load weight: The designs of the RUD ACP-TURNADO. The RUD ACP-TURNADO sets new standards for the safe lifting of valuable loads. Thanks to its innovative spring mechanism, its lift bail immediately turns into the load direction when the load is lifted, so it cannot remain vertical. Dangerous transverse loads and a sudden drop of the load by sudden turning into the load direction are therefore impossible. Since every application has special requirements, we have developed three different designs for the RUD ACP-TURNADO. Each of them is perfectly adapted to a defined WLL range...

RUD ACP-TURNADO-9

Wide variety meets endless applications. There is an ambitious goal behind the RUD ACP-TURNADO: to perfect a well-known design. Therefore, we have carried out a significant optimisation of the basic design and essential details of conventional lifting points. The result was a lifting point that eliminates the disadvantages of existing solutions and makes the user’s work easier and safer. You can choose between threads in various metric and inch sizes in three designs.

RUD ACP-TURNADO-11

We at RUD are committed to always offer you a tailor-made solution that meets your specific requirements. This is why we equip the RUD ACP-TURNADO up to M48 (2") with a bolt that can be replaced. From thread size M52 (2 V2"), on the other hand, it has a threaded rod that is firmly connected. Thanks to this concept, large lifting points can be implemented even in very small batch sizes in a flexible, fast, and cost-effective manner. You can flexibly choose the length, type and diameter of the thread to fit your application. Individual special threads up to a length of 300 mm are possible. ACP-TURNADO...
