Elesa+Ganter’s New GN 824 Indexing Plungers with Chamfered Pins: Precision Latching for Versatile Applications
Elesa+Ganter continues to push innovation in indexing plungers with a new type featuring chamfered pins. These advanced plungers improve latching, locking, and securing, even when exact alignment is difficult.
Why Choose Indexing Plungers with Chamfered Pins?
Traditional indexing plungers need cylindrical holes for proper engagement. However, many applications only provide an edge or groove for latching. The new GN 824 indexing plungers solve this issue with a chamfered pin that adjusts to uneven surfaces. When the pin reaches an edge, it retracts and then automatically locks into position. This feature ensures smooth operation, even in dynamic environments.
Key Features & Benefits:
- Reliable Latching on Uneven Surfaces: The chamfered pin design ensures secure latching into grooves, edges, and irregular surfaces.
- High-Strength Stainless Steel Pin: Elesa+Ganter constructs the pin from hardened stainless steel with a square cross-section for added durability.
- Easy 360° Pin Adjustment: Users can fine-tune the plunger pin’s alignment by loosening a grub screw on the base ring.
- User-Friendly Operation: A black plastic knob allows for quick and easy engagement.
- Optional Rest Position (C & CK Types): The knob turns 90° to lock and temporarily disable automatic latching.
- Customizable Latching Depth: Versions with a lock nut let users adjust the depth for optimal performance.
Applications:
Indexing plungers with chamfered pins provide fast and secure latching, even when alignment is not exact. These plungers work well in:
- Transport frames
- Industrial mechanisms
- Covers and panels requiring automatic latching
Expanding the Indexing Plunger Range
Elesa+Ganter also offers the GN 724 indexing plungers, which provide similar functionality with additional mounting options. This series includes screw-in, weldable solutions, and spring latch versions for specialized applications.
