Bahrain-based Kanoo Automotive and Industrial Equipment (KAIE) has launched a torque wrench calibration service, certified by German group Stahlwille.

A leading manufacturer in the global tool industry, Germany-based Stahlwille provides intelligent torquing technology and tool systems, high-grade tightening tools and bespoke solutions for tool storage.

The calibration activity follows a specific process and constraints when performed by a service centre, said a statement from KAIE.

The operation requires specialist torque wrench calibration equipment with high accuracy, and specific area temperature and humidity where the calibration is being performed, it added.

A division of Ebrahim K Kanoo, the company is a key provider of essential services such as consulting, planning, installation and annual maintenance, as well as customised solutions tailored to specific projects.

For the Stahlwille certification, KAIE application engineer Ravinder Sharma had to undergo a special training course in Germany, said a statement from the company.

Sudhindra Kalibhat, the sales manager, KAIE, said: “Calibration is a complicated process that requires a unique set of skills to achieve precision.”

“This is a crucial addition to our service portfolio. We are proud to be certified by Stahlwille- Germany, which enables us to make this service available in Bahrain,” he added. – TradeArabia News Service
