Atlas Copco has announced the launch of the XB range, a new generation of cordless nut runners designed to support smart manufacturing and enhance assembly performance. The XB range combines speed and precision, making it an ideal solution for manufacturers beginning their journey toward Smart Integrated Assembly.

The new range includes two all-electric tools: the XCB, a mechanical clutch tool built for standard applications, and the XTB, a torque transducer tool designed for quality-critical applications.

Designed for ease of use, the XB tools are ready to perform from the moment they are unpacked. Operators simply need to insert the battery, set their torque preferences, and begin working.

The tools feature a clear and intuitive Human Machine Interface (HMI) that enables operators to easily access essential information. The system provides clear OK/NOK signals, helping operators stay in control and maintain tightening accuracy throughout the assembly process.

The XCB delivers minimum reaction force and re-hit detection, making it ideal for tightening multiple joints to the same torque. For applications involving different torque levels and joint stiffness, the XTB offers multiple tightening programs with torque control and angle monitoring to ensure precision.

Built with the operator in mind, the all-electric XB range delivers cordless freedom without compromising precision or power. The cordless design allows operators to move freely across workstations and access tight or hard-to-reach spaces more easily.

The XB tools are designed for durability and operator comfort, featuring an ergonomic handle, lightweight design, and calibrated balance that help minimize strain during use. Easy to set up and intelligent in operation, the XB range offers manufacturers both freedom and control — striking the right balance between performance and intelligence for everyday assembly applications.
