Smart TFA – Torque Flange Assembly

Bolted Joint Master™

Digital control and traceability of bolted and flanged joint assembly to prevent leaks, rework, loss of containment, and unplanned shutdowns.

Bolted Joint Master UI

Integrated Management

  • Manages bolted joint integrity and flange tightening.
  • Aligned with ASME PCC-1, EN 1591, and global flange management best practices.
  • Records torque/tension values and enforces engineering standards.
  • Uses QR-coded tagging and mobile-based verification.
  • Ensures zero leaks and no startup delays.
  • Generates joint “birth certificates” for traceability.

Key Value

Prevents leaks in high-pressure systems and guarantees correct assembly every time.

Execution Control

Bolted Joint – Features and functions

A disciplined Torque Flange Assembly (TFA) workflow designed for zero leaks and verified compliance.

Phase 1

Flange Scope Preparation

Comprehensive planning and asset identification. Defining specifications, engineering requirements, and joint categorization before field execution begins.

Phase 2

Break Flange & Inspection

Controlled disassembly with professional status tracking. Inspecting flange faces, bolts, and nut surfaces to ensure full integrity before re-assembly.

Phase 3

Prepare Flange & Tightening

Executing controlled torque or tensioning. Utilizing QR-code verification for lubricants, gaskets, and tools to meet precise engineering values.

Phase 4

Quality Control & Assurance

Final sign-off with evidence verification. Generation of the joint ‘Birth Certificate’ and updating the live project status dashboard.

Platform Capabilities

Industrial-grade flange management tools built for regulated environments.

QR-coded Flange Tagging

Unique digital identities for every joint, enabling instant access to technical specs and history via on-site scanning.

Mobile Scan & Verify

Field-ready mobile application for real-time verification of assembly steps, preventing execution errors before they occur.

Torque/Tension Control

Direct enforcement of engineering tightening values with automatic record-keeping of every applied parameter.

Photographic Evidence

Capture and attach visual proof for every critical step, from flange face inspection to final tag application.

Component Traceability

Unlinked tracking of bolts, gaskets, lubricants, and specific tools used, ensuring full accountability for all materials.

Joint “Birth Certificate”

Automated generation of comprehensive PDF integrity reports for every single joint upon successful completion.

Event Dashboard

Live progress tracking and readiness analytics across all project phases for managers and EPC teams.

Productivity Metrics

Built-in analytics for flange history, rework analysis, and execution productivity benchmarking.

Field Verified Results

Real-world impact of Bolted Joint Master™ on critical industrial infrastructure.

"HEMG's Bolted Joint Master™ transformed how we approach flange assembly during turnarounds. For the first time in our facility's 18-year history, we achieved a 100% leak-free startup across all 1,400 critical joints."
