Training

---

We provide training on bolting technology and related matters. The majority of the training that we complete is focused on assisting Engineers and Designers solve bolting problems. We can offer training via online distance learning, or alternatively, face to face training in a classroom at your premises.

Online Distance Learning available from Bolt Science

The video below provides an overview of the different courses with further information and links below.

Distance learning can provide several advantages to both a company and an individual. It allows the learning to be fitted around an individual's work commitments and can be completed at an individual's pace and at a location and time of choice. The distance learning courses provided by Bolt Science use a Learning Management System (LMS) that allows progress and responses to quizzes to be monitored. More details on this aspect on request.

When a group of people complete the training at the same time we can offer a hybred type course in which the online training is supplemented by question and answer sessions using Microsoft Teams or similar video conferencing platform.

The distance learning courses presently available include:

Bolting Technology for Engineers and Designers.

Fundamentals of Threaded Fasteners and Bolting.

Torque Tightening - Best Practice Guidance.

All the online training courses include narration. This can be turned off if not required. Some brief details about each course is provided below, more information is available by clicking on the relevant link. A short form brochure providing details of our online courses is available here.

The Bolting Technology for Engineers and Designers online training is our premier course and provides both general information on bolting as well as how to complete calculations such as determining a torque value, completing a joint analysis to determine if bolt loosening or fatigue is likely to occur, the completion of thread stripping caculations, and determining the loading acting on bolts. The course goes into some detail relating to both bolting failures and how they may be prevented.

The Fundamentals of Threaded Fasteners and Bolting online training seeks to provide the background knowledge to allow problems to be identified and the likely root cause established. Practically every engineering product with any degree of complexity uses threaded fasteners. Many Engineers and other staff require a working knowledge of threads and fasteners without having the need to complete any calculations. This training course is intended for such staff. Technicians, Inspectors, Field Engineers, Maintenance staff and project leaders would find value in this training.

The Torque Tightening - Best Practice Guidance online training is for engineering personnel involved in the torque tightening of threaded fasteners. The purpose of this training course is to provide advice as to what is generally regarded as best practice guidance in regard to the torque tightening of threaded fasteners. It is intended for engineering personnel who are responsible for, or involved in, the torque tightening of threaded fasteners.

Training in the UK at your Company's Premises

Most of the training that we do at a company's premises are for Engineers and Designers on the technical aspects of bolting. The training can be of one, two or three days duration with the content to suit a particular industry or organisation. A handbook is provided with each course covering the subject matter in the presentations.

We have completed such in-house training to organisations in the automotive, rail, aerospace, specialist machinery and equipment, fastener and naval industry sectors as well as large consultancy companies.

We can provide courses at your premises covering the full range of fastener issues. A typical course would be of two days duration delivered to between 10 to 30 engineers. As previously mentioned, the course can be individually taylored to meet your specific requirements but an out of a typical course is presented in the link below.

In Company Training Course on Bolting Technology.

This training has been delivered world-wide and receives very positive feedback:

"Thank you very much for providing such an excellent 2 days of training last week. The consensus was that it was one of the most useful course we have had at BAE." Andy Lovatt, Mechanical Design Engineer, BAE Systems Land (UK)

"It is amazing how much from the course we are able to apply on a daily basis." Jason M. Hall, Leader - Bolted Joints and Static Seals, Cummins Turbo Technologies

Training in India at your Company's Premises

Coexlion can deliver this course in India, further information, including contact details are available on the Coexlion website.

Training in North America at your Company's Premises

Matrix Engineering can deliver face to face training in North America on bolting technology. Their training course on the Fundamentals of Threaded Fasteners and Joint Design will provide participants with an in-depth explanation of fastener terminology, technology, and threaded fastener joint design calculations and strategies which will enable the student to design the joint and select the proper threaded fasteners so the system will not fail in service. Further information, including contact details are available on the Matrix website.
